piettely we Vent off about per
ideals that Negroes are es good
as we are and the same kind Of
blood Nee through Our
veins., blab, blab, biah.
But how weelld We react if
suddenly we were thrust into
situation where we were
eurrnunded by black people who
, are angered by centuries of
discrimination? Would we really
live up to our high ideals or
would we cringe and behave just
as despicably as those who are
responsible for the persecution
Of the Negroes in the USA? I
wonder.
I didn't like what I saw in
myself that evening I was
exposed to some of the ugly
facts -of life. I was appalled by
my behaviour and powerless to
change it.
So this week I take my hat
What kind of a Pereoe ani
really?
That's the. elueatiort
asking Myself these days. A
Week or so ago I was in the
position for about one hour of
being shoulder to shoulder with
some very unfortunate people.
Not only were these souls
lacking in mentality and normal
appearance, they were:obviously
living in a• situation which could
be termed less than adequate by
today's standards.
Ai I sat there with them? I
felt my skin begin to•crawl just .a
little at the sight of my
companions. I was sickened, not
so much by their presence as by
my own high-hatted attitude.
I have always ,considered
myself a very tolerant person,
someone who doesn't put on
any airs or have any grand
delusions about self. But sitting
there in the quiet of that room,
began to see myself for what I
really am—it bigot and a snob.
And try as I would to shake
these thoughts that somehow' I
was just a little better than these
wretched people, I just couldn't
relax and feel at home or at ease
with them.
That night when I arrived
home I was ashamed of myself. I
had been face to face with an
opportunity to express my
Christian faith by a simple act of
brotherly love and I had failed
Miserably.
My prayers that night and
every night since have included a
petition for God to grant to me
the ability to have compassion
on others whatever their lot in
life. I also threw in a few lines
about how grateful I am to be as
physically and mentally whole as
the majority of the human race.
I began to understand racial
discrimination and how it
spreads. People like me sit beside
their walnut television sets in an
all-white, neighborhood that is
free from litter and clutter, lined
_with shade trees and spread with
green grass carpets. We shake our
heads in disbelief at the way the
American Negroes• are treated by
their white masters and very

helpers are doctors and nurses or
social Workers and police

my heartfelt thanks that they

I have seen the real concern

dealt a rough lot in life. I am

The work of the Canadian
Group of Seven is of extreme
historical ,eigeifieence, Its
formation. in 1,920 in Toronto
was a realization of a growing
Catiadian .consciousness among
group of artists who shared the
same aspirations .and ambitions.
Seeing Canada as `the true
worth'-, the Group. of Seven
depleted Canada in the 1920's as
a drama of- Geography, of
magnificent natural epeCtacles,
•
The .main images of the artists
involved the -idea of man against
the wilderness and their
impressions, of Canada's
solemnity and loneliness were
the driving forces behind their
association.
Membership expanded
through the years to include A.
J, Casson (1898, ), L. L.
Fitzgerald (1890-1956) and
Edwin Holgate • (1892-
Emily. Carr (1871-1945), the
British Columbian artist, as a
friend sympathetic to their
ideals, came to. be associated
with the Group of - Seven. In
1933, the Group expanded to
include Ganadian' followers of
the original group, which
became knOwn as the Canadian
Group of Painters.
