Park writes about the number of articles needed for the "Encyclopedia of the Negro" and lays out a strategy for selecting topics and writers and publishing. Donald Pierson on Negroes in Brazil; Diedrich Westermann. Bantus in South Africa are concerned about the progress being made by American Negroes; "Neither did they think of themselves as South Africans. They were Natives and Bantus. They wanted the Cape Coloured to associate themselves with them in a struggle of what the rallying cry was 'Africa for the Africans.' But they did not identify themselves with the Cape Coloured. They had a common interest with them but it was not apparently racial."
