Black people in this country must understand that we are the vanguard force. We shall liberate all the people in the United States, and we will be in… - James Forman

Black people ... are the most humane people within the United States. We have suffered and we understand suffering.

Caution is fine, but no oppressed people ever gained their liberation until they were ready to fight, to use whatever means necessary, including the use of force and power of the gun to bring down the colonizer.

Any class analysis of the United States shows very clearly that black people are the most oppressed group of people inside the United States. We have suffered the most from racism and exploitation, cultural degradation and lack of political power. It follows from the laws of revolution that the most oppressed will make the revolution.
