\nFairmont HotelGrand Ballroom  \nFRIDAY FLASHES -APRIL 21From Address by  \nReverend A.Cecil WilliamsMinister,Glide Memorial Church  \nThe streets are exploding,in many di-rections,and I would like to talk aboutsome of these new directions.But towidely understand what we mean by thestreets,we have to use symbolic terms,because to say the streets means to givethem just a location,and I want to givethem more.To say the street's also to saysomething about the people,and the con-ditions of those people.  \n# Edge of Life\n\nIt not only has to do with conditions,but it has to do with what they see as theplight of their lives,the destiny of theirives,their hopes and aspirations.So,tosay they're discriminated against not justbecause of color,but because of age oreconomic conditions.  \nSo to really talk about the streets is totalk about a whole milieu of people,awhole cottage of people who see them-selves as street people and being honestwith you,I have to count myself in thatcrowd.  \nThe streets are exploding at their worst,because so many people who find them-selves a part of the streets don't feel goodabout themselves.They have decided thatfor those who don't feel good about them-  \n# The Streets Are Exploding in New Directions\n\nselves they will do anything that they pos-sibly can.  \n## Destructive Mood\n\nWe call it \"any means necessary.\"They will engage in any means necessaryto make themselves a part of the group.This is why you and i many times findourselves exposed to a lot of people whowant to let themselves feel good about shoot-ing up drugs and drinking drugs;alcohol isa drug just like other kinds of drugs.Soyou see these people want to let them-selves feel good about shooting up anddrinking up drugs.Another thing thatmany times make these people feel good isto rob,rape and kill.Many people of thestreet are out to destroy themselves,as adestructive mood,a destructive tempoabout their lives.  \nBut they wil also destroy other people,and by any means necessary.That's thestreet at its worst.  \nThere's another factor when one looksat the street at its worst,and that is simplythis,that they are out to destroy you also!They feel very strongly that they havebeen lied to,that they have been cheatedthat they have been manipulated,and theyhave been controlled.  \n## Tired of Manipulation\n\nOne reason so many people find them-selves part of the streets is because theyare tired of being what they call spoiled,  \n(Continued on next page)  \n\n| OFFICERS OF THE CLUB  \u003Cbr>The Commonwealth  \u003Cbr>Bradley B.Garretson……
