Dear Mr. Bell,

Thank you for the review copy of Young and Black in
America. I hope to have some comments on the book
for you soon, but in the meantime, could you please
send two copies to the Martin Luther King Library,
671 Beckwith Street, SW, Atlanta? They are in dire
financial straits and would appreciate receiving
copies of this valuabler work.

Sincerely,

Julian Bond
