- 5 - In warning against the degrading evil of professional anti-communism, which has dragged whole nations down to the gutter, much less labor and people's organizations, Communists seek no special priority for themselves and their Party. They have, instead, the vital interest and unity of the whole Negro people's movement and of the entire American people at heart. For, as Communists, we welcome sincere and open competition with all other ideologies, especially competition in deeds, in serving the freedom struggles of the Negro people, and in removing the ignominious blot of racist brutality and oppression from our country. We are confident of the verdict that the people and the future will render upon our Party and our science. Despite our differences with all who still believe in capitalism, we stand shoulder to shoulder with the Negro people, and with their labor and democratic supporters, to overcome all obstacles to the free and unconditional exercise of full citizenship to the Negro people, and for the unlimited expansion of U.S. democracy -- NOW! # # #
