and that is the fact that there are still more than 10 million negroes living in the southern part of the united states, and some six million of the negroes living in the southern part of the united states are of voting age, and yet only two million are registered. this means that four million remain unregistered, not merely because they are apathetic, not because they are complacen-- this may be true of some few- but because all types of conniving methods are still being used to keep negroes from becoming registered voters. complex literacy tests are given, which make it almost impossible for anybody to pass the test, even if he has a ph.d. degree in any field or a law degree from the best law schools of the world. and then actual economic reprisals are often taken out against negroes who seek to register and vote in some of the black belt counties of mississippi and alabama and other places. then, some are actually faced with physical violence, and sometimes physical death. this reveals that we have a great deal that must be done in this area. i mentioned economic justice, and i am sure that that fig
