Dr Nathan Hare reflects on SF States Black Studies Program

Dr Nathan Hare discusses the crisis of the negro intellectual and his desire to take an active role in addressing this issue. He expresses his belief that the struggle for black power needs to be conducted on an international stage and relates this view to his recent dispute at San Francisco State College with President Hayakawa over the creation of a Black Studies Department, reflecting that: "I think one can get bogged down reacting to insignificant and tragic individuals such as Hayakawa and I think that at some point one has to move to a new level to begin to try to do something worthwhile."
