come from states where Negroes can't vote. This is not even
a government that's based on democracy. lt. is not a government that is
made up of representatives of the people. Half of the people in the
South can't even vote. Eastland is not even supposed to be in
Washington. Half of the senators and congressmen who occupy these key
positions in Washington, D.C., are there illegally, are there
unconstitutionally.



I was in Washington, D.C., a week ago Thursday, when they were debating
whether or not they should let the bill come onto the floor. And in the
back of the room where the Senate meets, there's a huge map of the
United States, and on that map it shows the location of Negroes
throughout the country. And it shows that the Southern section of the
country, the states that are most heavily concentrated with Negroes, are
the ones that have senators and congressmen standing up filibustering
and doing all other kinds of trickery to keep the Negro from being able
to vote. This is pitiful. But it's not pitiful for us any longer; it's
actually pitiful for the white man, because soon now, as the Negro
awakens a little more and sees the vise that he's in, sees the bag that
he's in, sees the real game that he's in, then the Negro's going to
develop a new tactic.

These senators and congressmen actually violate the constitutional
amendments that guarantee the people of that particular state or county
the right to vote. And the Constitution itself has within it the
machinery to expel any representative from a state where the voting
rights of the people are violated. You don't even need new legislation.
