By DR. DAVID SUZUKI
The following address by Dr. David T. Suzuki was present­
edori the occasion of the" 25th Anniversary of the -Universal
Declaration of Human Rights in Vancouver, B.C.
1 '
' Dr. David T. Suzuki, distinguished Canadian geneticist
and sometimes controversial public figure, is a professor of ~
zoology at the University of British Columbia. His research
on temperature sensitive, mutants of Drosophilia at UBC has -'
been particularly noteworthy. Yet, his interests extended far
beyond laboratory Research. During a year as researcher at^
; theAOak Ridge >NaCional " Laboratory . in Tennessee^ he' was a
member of the local branch of the NAACP, and has long been
concerned ।with the fundamental aspects of human dignity,
_ freedom- and responsibility.

Seventeen years I* have been faced ,with it.
From early childhood till now. r
I receive prejudice from all walks of life.
Ranging’ from Friends, Fellow Students, Adults and many
more.
Oh yes!
I must- not forget my FAVOURITE of them all,
THE BIGOT.
There is no running away from it.
It’s become a part of me, '
Till the day I die.
The stares, the looks, the questions,
" At "times become unbearable.
I almost want to break down and cry.
But I must be brave to this challenge
And shed not a single tear.
But the kind that really hurts me
Is being called a “JAP .
-If you ask me what it’s like,
I’ll tell you.
- It’s like having a handicap of some kind,
Where people like YOUj
Regard ME as some kind of freak found at some circus.
While the rest of YOU,
Regard ME as a piece of trash
Or a lazy good for nothing.
I guess people wilt never change their views on Prejudice
But, OH!
What a world this is today,
And forever will be,
Full of those like the Great American, Archie Bunker.
I know it will be with me,
“TILL DELATH DO US PART.”
But I just keep on asking myself,
“Is it the color of my skin ?
Or
Being of a Japanese Nationality?,
