We had to learn that we’re beautiful. We had to relearn something forcefully taken from us. We had to learn about Black power. People have power if we unite. We learned the importance of coming together and being active Picture Quote #1

At this time I’d like to say a few words especially to my sisters: SISTERS. BLACK PEOPLE WILL NEVER BE FREE UNLESS BLACK WOMEN PARTICIPATE IN EVERY ASPECT OF OUR STRUGGLE, ON EVERY LEVEL OF OUR STRUGGLE Picture Quote #1

The U. S. is becoming more hostile to Black people and other people of color. Racism is running rampant and xenophobia is on the rise Picture Quote #1

Freedom! you askin me about freedom. I’ll be honest with you. I know a whole more about what freedom isn’t than about what it is, ‘cause I’ve never been free. I can only share my vision with you of the future, about what freedom is Picture Quote #1

Hip Hop can be a very powerful weapon to help expand young people’s political and social consciousness. But just as with any weapon, if you don’t know how to use it, if you don’t know where to point it, or what you’re using it for, you can end up shooting yourself in the foot or killing your sisters or brothers Picture Quote #1

Love is contraband in Hell, cause love is an acid that eats away bars. But you, me, and tomorrow hold hands and make vows that struggle will multiply. The hacksaw has two blades. The shotgun has two barrels. We are pregnant with freedom. We are a conspiracy Picture Quote #1

Are you ready to sacrifice to end world hunger? To sacrifice to end colonialism? To end neo-colonialism? To end racism? To end sexism? Picture Quote #1

My life wasn’t beautiful and creative before I became politically active. My life was totally changed when I began to struggle Picture Quote #1

I miss friends and family. If it weren’t for visits from old friends and other African Americans I meet who come to Cuba, I’d probably be in some kind of time warp Picture Quote #1

We need to be weapons of mass construction, weapons of mass love. It’s not enough just to change the system. We need to change ourselves Picture Quote #1

In my opinion while lynchings were quite possibly the most heinous crimes ever witnessed in American history, they helped in bringing people together for a sole purpose. It was because of these lynchings that armed self-resistance was created. If white people knew black people were capable of fighting back then there was less of a chance that violence actually would break out Picture Quote #1

If we are not committed to saving this earth we will be buying designer air filters and gas masks with little Nike swishes on them Picture Quote #1

The US has attacked countries like Grenada, Panama, Libya... the list of victims of US terrorism is almost infinite. And the US government’s participation in torture, whether in El Salvador, Guatemala, Chile... is well-documented and widely known Picture Quote #1

Hip Hop can be a very effective way to reach young people and teach them about current political and social issues Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been a student of different ways of looking at the world, different religions. That’s been part of my survival mechanism, and also part of my curiosity as a person Picture Quote #1

I think that one of the great things that the Cuban revolution has done is preserve history Picture Quote #1

How lovely it is to live with a sense of community. To live where you can drop in the street and a million people will come and help you Picture Quote #1

I think anybody who is honestly struggling against racism must struggle against imperialism and vice versa Picture Quote #1

My energy just couldn’t stop dancing. I was caught up in the music of struggle, and I wanted to dance Picture Quote #1

I think it’s really hard to plan if you don’t believe you can implement those plans Picture Quote #1

Part of being a revolutionary is creating a vision that is more humane. That is more fun, too. That is more loving. It’s really working to create something beautiful Picture Quote #1

The methods of peaceful protests are not capable of being effective, because in reality most people pay little attention to things that are not abrasive Picture Quote #1

People get used to anything. The less you think about your oppression, the more your tolerance for it grows. After a while, people just think oppression is the normal state of things. But to become free, you have to be acutely aware of being a slave Picture Quote #1

Before going back to college, I knew I didn’t want to be an intellectual, spending my life in books and libraries without knowing what the hell is going on in the streets. Theory without practice is just as incomplete as practice without theory. The two have to go together Picture Quote #1
