We Must Establish All Over The Country Schools Of Our Own To Train Our Own Children To Become Scientists, To Become Mathematicians.

First, What Is A Revolution? Sometimes I'm Inclined To Believe That Many Of Our People Are Using This Word "revolution" Loosely, Without Taking Careful Consideration [of] What This Word Actually Means, And What Its Historic Characteristics Are. When You Study The Historic Nature Of Revolutions, The Motive Of A Revolution, The Objective Of A Revolution, And The Result Of A Revolution, And The Methods Used In A Revolution, You May Change Words. You May Devise Another Program. You May Change Your Goal And You May Change Your Mind.

Our People Have Made The Mistake Of Confusing The Methods With The Objectives. As Long As We Agree On Objectives, We Should Never Fall Out With Each Other Just Because We Believe In Different Methods, Or Tactics, Or Strategy. We Have To Keep In Mind At All Times That We Are Not Fighting For Separation. We Are Fighting For Recognition As Free Humans In This Society.
