A TIME TO KEEP*
Shuck in' and jivin'
ERIC W. GILLIAM
l
It you start with the essential premise, as I do, that anyone that
Reagan, Rafferty and our own Hugh Burns dislikes cannot be all bad
- and probably Is a good fellow - then it naturally follows that
Eldrldge Cleaver will be a constructive addlUoo to UC's list of lec-
As you know, there Is now a great storm over Mr. Cleaver's ap¬
point to occasionally give lectures during a course on American
Racism at the University. What has the peepul's 'leaders* so riled
Is Cleaver's expUclt statement on racial relationships which. If the
pubUc prints are to be trusted, consist of the phrase «KI11 Whlteyl"
Cleaver gave a talk to the Barrister's Club In San Franclaso re¬
cently and, for the benefit of Ws white and "liberal* audience, he
made the predictable number of spear-shaklng statements that
promptly congealed his Usteners' marrow. This Is what they had
come to hear, of course, since small-1 liberals love to be whipped and
chivvied by underdogs. Like the nagellants of old, they feel that un¬
less they are made to bleed on occasion, the burden of fancied guilt
becomes overmuch. The superego must be fed, right?
Eldrldge Is hip to this and he obligingly kicked the enraptured
crowd square in their corpus Juris secunda. They squealed on cue
when he unleashed these nuggets:
Cleaver on American lawyers: 'You're all chasing dollars, but
there are other people who are chasing dollars to buy guns to kill
Judges, and police and corporation lawyers.*
Cleaver on liberals: 'I mean all my Insults to those who won't
choose my side, the right side. . . You people on my side - I love
you! ... I hope you'll take your guns and shoot judges and police.*
Cleaver on courtroom sportsmanship: "We need lawyers today who
have a lawbook In one hand and a gun In the other. . . so that If he
goes to court and that -- - doesn't come out right, he can pull out
his gun and start shooting!*
"Clear and present danger" __
Aside from the suspicion I feel that he was shucktn' and jlvln'
the honkjes here, Cleaver has only a contextual right to make such
statements. Were he to say these things to an Impassioned mob
where there was reason for an ordinarily prudent man to conclude
that a clear, and present danger of violence would result from such
statements then the protection of the first amendment would not ap¬
ply. Free speech, as the Supreme Court has pointed out, stops short
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
of anyone's right to shout "fire* In a
Important, too, Is to look at Cleaver as a man of keener percep¬
tions than his enemies would admit. He knows who holds the power
in Oakland and I would Uke to believe that his regard for the black
cause is  sufficient  to keep the city from turning Into a slaughter
A compromise has now been affected; Cleaver will speak once at
Berkeley. Whether this will satisfy the thousands who start classes
today at the university Is unknown. Most are by now aware that this
skirmish between the Reagan Administration, the trustees and the
school officials concerns Mr. Cleaver only marginally. The real
issue lies deeper and I have a sense of deja vu about this affair
that takes roe back four years to the FSM. HOTCHAI! Next year's
