John Howard came from Georgia to Uptown Chicago. In other words, from the poverty of the South to the City Hillbilly Harlem. In Chicago he saw how his people were being thoroughly oppressed by the avaricious businessmen, the demagogic politician and the class-oppressor policemen. He joined with the progressive people of Uptown to deal with these true enemies of the people. All oppressed people in Uptowon - red, black, brown, yellow and white - banded together against the common enemy. Finally. John took his knowledge back to his people in the South - in Atlanta. There, last year, he was viciously stabbed to death by mad- dog Maddox's fly-by-night fascist loving pigs because they convicted him of bein^ a nigger lover, but left his wife and eight children still trapped in white poverty. John Howard taught us the spirit of true solidarity. We should all learn from him and follow his practice - the practice of the true Patriot in righteous struggle^

ALL POWER TO THE PEOPLE

We demand an end to racism, and the inequality of the sexes, as tools of capitalism to devide the people.

JOHN HOWARD MEMORIAL FREE BREAKFAST FOR CHILDREN In New Haven there's a lai^e white ghetto area. Here like most every other city in .Amerika the Peoples needs aren't being met. The reason they're not is because if they were, some fool pig sitting up there on top might have to lose one of his millions that the People have been forced to put in his pocket as profit on our basic survival. The PATRIOT PARTY is not going to relate to that. We relate to meeting the basic needs and desires of our people and in doing that educating them to the source of the oppression and how to overthrow it. The John Howard Memorial Free Breakfast for Children Program began here on January 12th to do just that. In the four weeks the Program has been functioning it has grown from 12 to 44 children each morning. We serve various hot meals from meat, eg^, grits and milk to firench toast and pancakes. We love the children and they know it. They know what we're doing is only a part of our right to live, to eat, have decent clothing on our backs and decent shelter. We have a right to these thin^ that we need to sun'ive. The mothers are so responsive they have been one of the best means of communication in the community. The responses of the people and children who are coming to the Program has been so beautiful that it has shown us not only that our practice is correct but that we must constantly improve it in this and in every other way in which we serve the people. We are working mainly now on getting the mothers to participate more in the program, which belongs to them. Getting them to set another example to the lying politician, the avaricious businessman, and all others maintaining this fascist state, that we the people are aware and that we will rise togecher and take care of ourselves. In doing this it will take the power from their hands and put it in the bands of the people where it has always belonged.

THE PATRIOT, MARCH 21, 1970, PAGE ^ DECENT and ADEQUATE HOUSING iSS UF UUR INCUME. Yorkville is the home of lots of people. For the older people, it's been thirty, forty, fifty years living here. For the younger people, its the home they were raised in and then, after getting married, it's just going down the block or the apartment upstairs. Years of friendships, years of going to the candystore man on the corner, years of walking down the familiar streets. But the Master Plan has been here for awhile too. This Plan of the Masters is to get all the poor and working class people out of Manhattan and move all the rich people in. So Yorkville is being torn down, to make way for the rich; and the People are suffering. Mary Manarovich has lived here all her life and has a six week old baby who's sick all the time because the pig, moneymad landlord doesn't provide heat or water; one of the methods used to make the people move. The Santana children haven't had heat or hot •water for nine days now because the boiler broke and , it's so old and rotted that's how long it'll take to fix it. Mrs. Kelly's walls were falling down and it took six months before the landlord finally decided just to "investigate" what was wrong. And what's happening to these families is what's happening 'ail over Yorkviile now—and has been happening for aWhile. The greedy landlords just want to collect their money and don't care about the people. They're part of the Master Plan and they're doing their job. They're letting the houses rot around the people so they'll have to move—or be sick all the time. But the inhuman conditions they're forcing us to live in are only part of their job. There's also illegal eviction notices that scare people out of their homes; and harrassment like drug addicts and drunks who can get into the buildings since the locks on the doors are never fixed; and hiring supers who are paid not to do any work. Yorkville is basically a poor white community—one of the easiest targets for the Master . 'I*'^" Since white oppression has never been capitalists oi ^ pQQp white communities are unorganized APPALACHIAN MIS. we l^t^**" . The people that have tried to fight back they're still "investigating" the matter and the courts "We demand decent and adequate housing, fit for the .t:n individuals and easy for the System to deal, who only dispense "injustice" to the poor.

My birthday is February 22, and I was born in 1958. After I got out of the foster home back in West Virginia, I went to Chicago.

I lived in Uptown Chicago on Clifton Avenue when I was 11. Then I found out my brother Roger was in town so I went to where he was staying. I was walking down the street and I saw Roger's red hair; I said, "Roger, is that you?" He said yea, and I went flying dovra that damn street. Me and Roger went up to the house. The couch was over here and there was a bookcase here and here, they had just covered over the bookcase and we started rolling over the bookcase and everything, man.

So Istarted living with Darlene and "Preacherman" Fesperman and then I joined the Young Patriots which I think is now considering not existing anymore because they thought they were going to take the party right over and we didn't think that was right after we'd been working our asses off too. If we want to do something and they don't like it, we do it anyway.

I used to just hang around the office. Uptown Chicago was a bunch of crazy people who hung around the streets. I've seen people get their throat cut. One man on Wilson Street, he had his throat cut and the ambulance had to come to stop the blood. I don't know why it happened. Girls get into fights and rip each other's clothes off and everything, man. The streets are a mess - there's bottles in the streets, glass on the sidewalks, dirty yards. I think Yorkville has better housing - in the apartments, but not in the hallways. The kids in Uptown go around busting beer bottles. They shoot people in the ass with paper clips, shoot out lightbulbs - things like that. I really dig living in Uptown, there's alot of kids up there; there are alot of people.

I think they need the Patriot Party in Uptown Chicago. I think people all over the world need it and we've got to go where the people are calling us; they're crying for us to come and begging for us. You can get the people together by forming a Revolution. You can go out and talk to people about the Party. We serve the people. You can talk to people about what you've seen in your past practice. What I mean is, let's say I knew you and we started rapping about the Party, I'd tell you how your practice has been. Also, if somebody looked like he needed some clothes, I'd give him some clothes. I'd give him a nice suit, and depending on how much money I had. I'd give him some money. If he looked hungry, I'd get him something to eat and have a cup of coffee with him. While I was with him, I'd be talking about the Party - "see what I just did for you, I just got you some clothes. See, that's how people get together. People should be able to go around sharing things. If you need some clothes, you should really have the eloflies. You should have what you need.

We're trying to help the people and we're gci.ng in help you so that when you come home you can have a nice big pile of beans and some combread and mashed potatoes. One of these days you can have it, you don't have to worry about it, you can really have it. SCHOOL I think the schools are lousy. They try to teach the kids a bunch of bull. They teach you that Columbus discovered America and that's not true, because he found out how to plant com from the Indians.

LAN!, DAUGHTER OF SALLY WRIGHT, BRUTALLY BEATEN BY FASCfST PUNK.

My daughter and Patriot sister Lani, age 10, has helped get donations for the Patriot Party Breakfast Programs in Eugene and sold papers which tell the truth. Black Panther papers, and for this she lies in a hospital bed after 3 1/2 hours of brain surgery.

She was pushed off a railing by a man, while holding the papers in her lap, and fell on the concrete. This pig did not even turn around to see if she was hurt, he couldn't have cared less. Skull xrays showed a fracture, and further tests show a blood clot beneath the skull, a clot as big as a man's fist.

This injury was reported to the Eugene Police by Patriot Ian Timm but they have done nothing about it, as they say they never got the complaint. They say they are going to investigate now - we'II see. Past practice has shown that pigs help the rich and not the poor and oppressed.

We of the Patriot Party see that our children are not safe anymore in this land of Babylon.

PATRIOTS IN FRONT OF FASCIST COURT THE PATRIOT, MARCH 21, 1970. PAGE 11 FREE ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS! "Anyone moving a TV set from their car to their house is automatically a robbery suspect", Officer McGoran told a courtroom filled with old and young brown people. On trial were Los Siete de la Raza, six brown brothers facing a trumped up murder charge. At a hearing on December 26 at the Hall of Injustice, Gary Lescallett, Tony and Mario Martinez, Danilo Melendez, Nelson Rodriguez and Jose Rios were subjected to the intimidation of the racist courts and the lies of the hoodlum cop McGoran. Brown faces of all ages stared in disbelief as they heard lie after lie. The trial started with a lie. The clerk called the case "The People versus Lescallet, Melendez, Rodri• guez, Rios, Martinez and Martinez". It is our brown brothers who are the people. It is the crowds in the courts supporting our borothers who are the people. The racist courts run by hoodlum cops and Mafia mayors are not the people. Tlie police vamp on the people and call that justice. Lie No. 2: Six foot, four inch, 225 pound McGoran tried to tell the court that Gary Lescallet started a fight; that In the struggle, one of the brothers stole his gun and shot his partner, Joseph Brodnik. Under carefull cross examination by one of the defense attorneys, Charles R. Garry, it was revealed that Officer McGoran could have been drunk at the time of the incident; that he enjoyed waving his gun (a .41 Magnum) at Latino youths; that he had suspected the brothers of robbery only because he saw them moving small articles of furniture into their house; that many times before McGoran harrassed young Latinos. Mr. Garry asked if one of McGoran's favorite LosSiete with Charles Garry tricks is to tell Latins"to make like a rabbit"- that is. to run so that he could shoot them in the back for trying to escape. He denied the charge after some hemming and hawing about never hearing the term before. As a team, Brodnik and McGoran have made over 400 burglary arrests, and this has been a common saying of theirs. McGoran seems to think the Latins are ignorant SeRVCS THE. PEOPLe fools.

MESSAGE LAW AND ORDER...FASCIST TOOL!

"The streets of our country are in turmoil. The universities are filled with TO students rebelling and rioting. Communists are seeking to destroy our country. Rus• sia Is threatening us with her might and the republic Is in danger. Yes, danger from within and from without. We need law and order. Without law and order our nation cannot survive. Elect us and we shall restore law and order. We will be respected by the nations of the world for law and order. Without law and order, our republic will fall." STUDENTS Adolf Hitler Hamburg, Germany, 1932

The Patriot Party has a word to say to students - to all students in general and to white students in particular. And that word is "stop thinking" - because Fascism's claws reach into the universities too. We have a situation in this country where universities do not serve the needs of the people. The Patriot Party knows this from practice. Our branch in New Haven pointed out how Pig Head Yale University oppresses openly the people it hires as its servants. And Yale University is z^^. 5YR.0LD educating its students to function as oppressors of the people. So, the Patriot Party had to point that out through the Peoples' Breakfast for Children Program and other Peoples' Programs. That drew the line of demarcation and brought down the Pigs on our Field Marshal. A Pig is a Pig - in mind and in ass. We, of the Patriot Party, encourage and support the progressive students. We know that progressive students have to make a choice - to serve the People or to serve the Ruling Class - to become a brick in the University's wall of mind or to become the one who changes that wall of minds into body attached human beings. We, of the Patriot Party, have begun to recognize a new student: one who is interested in the People and the Community; one who doesn't separate the struggle in the Universities,from that of the Peoples'; one wh'b' bfT -f-V^^ p,c^5 \A/Ao ^A ^fo^^^S seeks to aid'the Vanguard Parties in their struggle.
