I am not a racist. I am against every form of racism and segregation, every form of discrimination. I believe in human beings, and that all human beings should be respected as such, regardless of their color. I for one believe that if you give people a thorough understanding of what confronts them and the basic causes that produce it, they'll create their own program, and when the people create a program, you get action. I want Dr. King to know that I didn't come to Selma to make his job difficult. I really did come thinking I could make it easier. If the white people realize what the alternative is, perhaps they will be more willing to hear Dr. King. If you're not ready to die for it, put the word "freedom" out of your vocabulary. It is a time for martyrs now, and if I am to be one, it will be for the cause of brotherhood. That's the only thing that can save this country. My Alma mater was books, a good library... I could spend the rest of my life reading, just satisfying my curiosity. Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything. If you're a man, you take it. Power never takes a back step - only in the face of more power.Respect me, or put me to death. Sitting at the table doesn't make you a diner, unless you eat some of what's on that plate. Being here in America doesn't make you an American. Being born here in America doesn't make you an American. The hospital strikers have demonstrated that you don't get a job done unless you show the Man you're not afraid ... If you're not willing to pay that price, then you don't deserve the rewards or benefits that go along with it. The price of freedom is death. Usually when people are sad, they don't do anything. They just cry over their condition. But when they get angry, they bring about a change. We're not americans, we're africans who happen to be in america. We were kidnapped and brought here against our will from africa. We didn't land on Plymouth Rock – that rock landed on us. You don't have to be a man to fight for freedom. all you have to do is to be an intelligent human being. You show me a capitalist and I'll show you a bloodsucker. You're not supposed to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or who says it. |
