It's Liberty Or It's Death. It's Freedom

It Is Only The Negro Leadership, The Bourgeois, Hand-picked, Handful Of Negroes Who Think That They're Going To Get Some Kind Of Respect, Recognition, Or Protection From The Government.

It Is The System Itself That, That Is Incapable Of Producing Freedom For The Twenty-two Million Afro-americans. Just Like A Chicken Can't Lay A Duck Egg, A Chicken Can't Lay A Duck Egg, Because The System Of The Chicken Isn't Constructed In The Way To Produce A Duck Egg. And Just As That Chicken System Can't Produce, Is Not Capable To, Of Producing A Duck Egg, The Political And Economic System Of This Country Is Absolutely Incapable Of Producing Freedom And Justice And Equality And Human Dignity For The Twenty-two Million Afro-americans.

Don't Be Bitter. Remember Lot's Wife When They Kill Me, And They Surely Will. You Have To Use All Of Your Energy To Do What It Is You Have To Do. [to His Wife Betty Shabazz]

If You Read The Story Of Slavery And See The Part That The Uncle Tom Played In The Plantation, And Then You See How The White Man Today Has Changed His Tactics, But He Still Occupies The Same Position, In That Same Context You Find Uncle Tom. He Has Changed His Tactics But He Still Occupies The Same Position.

We Don't Think That We're Begging For Anything. We Think We're Demanding What Is Ours By Right.
