sly desilva - flashback 1966 (interlude) كلمات الأغنية

“louis harris is one of this nation’s foremost public opinion _n_lysts
his poll takers have tested public sentiment on all the issues
involving the black man and the white man
mr. harris, how much of a change has there been?”

“i think, perhaps, most dramatic is in the area of demonstrations
where you found, back in 1963, on the eve of the march on washington
a majority of white people felt that such demonstrations
could help the cause of negroes achieving civil rights in this country
before this summer began, you found it was about 2:1
white people feeling that demonstrations were hurting the negro cause
at the end of this summer, now we find, in this month of september, 81_19, 4:1
white people think the demonstrations of the civil rights movement hurt the negro cause”

“what about the so_called ‘white liberal’”

“well there’s been a dramatic shift here
back in 1963, two out of every three white, college_educated, liberal people
mainly in the north, were in sympathy to the civil rights movement
on the eve of this summer, in may of this year
you found just about 50% of these white liberals who were sympathetic, a slippage
but at the end of this summer, it’s scarcely more than one in four who feel sympathetic any longer
there’s been a disenchantment among your white liberals with the civil rights movement”
