There is no such thing as a black middle class.
I say violence is necessary. It is as American as cherry pie.
And understand: class differences will not save you.
Everybody in the black community must organize, and then we decide whether we will have alliance with other people or not, but not until we are organized.
Class structures are a luxury that we cannot afford.
But black people fall for that same argument, and they go around talking about law breakers. We did not make the laws in this country. We are neither morally nor legally confined to those laws. Those laws that keep them up, keep us down.
An old African leader says about leadership, he says that leadership should never be shared; it should always remain in the hands of the dispossessed people. We will lead the revolution.
See, justice is a joke in this country, and it stinks of its hypocricy.
Yes, politics IS war without bloodshed; and war is an extension of those politics.
You see, the poverty program for the last five years have been buy-off programs.
The only politics in this country that's relevant to black people today is the politics of revolution... none other.
If America don't come around, we're gonna' burn it down.
The man does not beat your head because you got a Cadillac or because you got a Ford; he beats you because you're black!
In terms of the revolution, I believe that the revolution will be a revolution of dispossessed people in this country: that's the Mexican American, the Puerto Rican American, the American Indian, and black people.
So black people all across this country are uniting. They must unite, and they must organize themselves.
