"I am enormously proud to be an American. I would say that the
things that our corporate-controlled government has done at best are
shameful and at worst genocidal--but there's an incredible and a
permanent culture of resistance in this country that I'm very proud
to be a part of. It's not the tradition of slave-owning founding
fathers, it's the tradition of the Frederick Douglasses, the
Underground Railroads, the Chief Josephs, the Joe Hills, and the
Huey P. Newtons. There's so much to be proud of when you're American
that's hidden from you. The incredible courage and bravery of the
union organizers in the late 1800's and early 1900's--that's amazing.
People get tricked into going overseas and fighting Uncle Sam's
Wall Street wars, but these are people who knew what they were
fighting for here at home. I think that that's so much more
courageous and brave."- Tom Morello
"I believe in the brotherhood of man, all men, but I don’t believe in brotherhood with anybody who doesn’t want brotherhood with me. I believe in treating people right, but I’m not going to waste my time trying to treat somebody right who doesn’t know how to return the treatment."
-El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz(Malcolm X)
"The policemen or soldiers are only a gun in the establishments hand. They make the racist secure in his racism."
-Huey P. Newton
"No other group in America has so had their identity socialized out of existence as have black women.... When black people are talked about the focus tends to be on black men; and when women are talked about the focus tends to be on white women."
-Bell Hooks
