liberty and tends toward militarism, an evil from which it has

necessary in the land of Washington and Lincoln to reaffirm that all men, of whatever race or color, are entitled to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We maintain that governments derive
their just powers from the consent of the governed. We insist
that the subjugation of any people is "criminal aggression" and
open disloyalty to the distinctive principles of our government...
We hold with Abraham Lincoln, that no man is good enough to
govern another man without that other's consent. When the
white man governs himself, that is self-government, but when he
governs himself and also governs another man, that is more
than self-government--that is despotism. Our reliance is in the
love of liberty which God has planted in us. Our defense is in the
spirit which prizes liberty as the heritage of all men in all lands.
Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for
