FATHER DIVINE
FATHER speaks following an inspirational composition:)
American youth, come and join us
On the upward march to victory!
We're letting nothing retard us
In our fight for the rights of all Americans!
To the learned, wise and prudent,
Behold the goods before your eyes!
We're taking the lead, we have the prize,
Unity through FATHER DIVINE.
We are Americans, one family, Americans!
We are the real McCoy! American.
PEACE, EVERYONE! I would just like to say at this instance, that appeal has been made even before and at the time of the late world war; and the American youth is truly coming to join us!
We are happy to have representatives all the way from Georgia here today and they represent a Democracy of real Americans and they have come to join us even if they are not conscious of it. We appreciate their visit and we hope that it will mean the universalizing or the universalization of that which I AM stressing daily!
It shall be in the furthest parts of the South just as we have it right here. I have brought an abolition to localization! Localities have no barriers for ME! This is not a supposition! You can travel the Eastern seaboard, especially the Northeastern seaboard, and you will see those of MY followers are not limited to localities! They buy property and own anything else anybody else can own, that is, if they want it!
I want all of our fellow citizens of our American Youth to realize, they also can do the same! And it shall be in the furthest parts of the South even as we have it right here. Aren't you glad! We have declared, we shall put, not only Bilbo out of existence, but we shall put his ism completely out! We have in one accord, put Bilbo out of existence and put Talmadge, if you please, out of existence, and we have put the poll-tax out of existence! I shall do it universally! Why? Because the Bible declares:
'Wheresoever two or three are gathered together in MY NAME, touching and agreeing upon the one thing that is needful, there I will be in the midst of them to bless the needy.'
We all have agreed that everybody should have the Same Rights, haven't we? A good many of us have been downtrodden, underprivileged and non-privileged long enough! I thank you. I thank you. I thank you.
