Page 4 The A&T Register Tuesday January 24, 1984 OPINIONS OPINIONS Black Power?????? One question which will be up in the air for Blacks as Black History Month approaches is "Are Blacks progressing or regressing? During the celebrations in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday this question surfaced in the minds of many of us. Usually.when most individuals are asked this question, without a moment of hesitation they reply "progressing." And the first references they pull out as their witness that times are getting better for Blacks is a walk down memory lane to the slavery history books or days of Jim Crow. Many say because of the victories of a Miss America who is Black, the election of several Black mayors in some of the na- tion's major cities, a Black presidential candidate who rescued an american hostage who was also Black, that Black Power is on the rise again But what exactly does Black power and progress mean to Blacks? Is Black Power the growing number of Blacks elected to public offices or could it be the increasing amount of Blacks in executive positions in corporate America. According to the January/February issue of The Black Col- legian the number of Black elected has increased tenfold from passion 1965 to 1982. Progress? Black Power?
