To the extent that this is of interest - given that there must be hundreds
of interdatings of _beatnik_ - AFAIK, this ad, published in the May and the
June issues of EBONY, is the only appearance of this word in a FUBU - for
us, by us - periodical during the era in which it mattered.

All say, "How hard it is that we have to die!"---a strange complaint to
come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
