Double Cross in NY Negro Delegates Clash with Republicans
A 1923 column denounces Republican moves to reduce Southern delegate representation to the national convention, arguing it aims to erase Negro influence and push Lily White control. It cites past nominations won by Black delegates and warns Northern leaders align with Southern whites to suppress the vote, threatening the party’s strength nationwide. It also critiques Governor Hyde over court clashes and injunctions affecting law enforcement and boxing protests, calling out selective prosecutions and urging legal remedies.
