Bunche was motivated, I think, by a basic, a very strong, passionate
feeling that liberty was an essential concomitant of human dignity
that without real liberty you didn't have dignity. And he felt
very strongly about this as, as far as the minorities in this
country, especially the Black minority, were concerned. And,
he felt by extension, extremely strongly about it in the world
at large where you had enormous territories which were dependent,
territories. They were people who did not govern themselves;
and did not have the freedom to be themselves on their own estimation
and, he felt very strongly about this. |
