I Would Like To Talk About Some

It's Time For America To Get Right.

In Coming To Atlantic City, We Believed Strongly That We Were Right. In Fact, It Was Just Right For Us To Come To Challenge The Seating Of The Regular Democratic Party From Mississippi. But We Didn't Think When We Got There That We Would Meet People, That Actually The Other Leaders Of The Movement Would Differ With What We Felt Was Right.

When I Got On That Plane, It Was Loaded With White People Going To Africa For The Peace Corps. I Got There And Met A Lot Of Them, And Actually They Had More Peace There In Guinea Than I Have Here. I Talked To Some Of Them. I Told Them Before They Would Be Able To Clean Up Somebody Else's House You Would Have To Clean Up Yours; Before They Can Tell Somebody Else How To Run Their Country, Why Don't They Do Something Here.

Not Only Have We Paid The Price With Our Names In Ink, But We Have Also Paid In Blood. And They Can't Say That Black People Can't Be Intelligent, Because Going Back To Africa, In Guinea, There Are Almost 4 Million People There And What He, President [sekou] Toure, Is Doing To Educate The People: As Long As The French People Had It They Weren't Doing A Thing That Is Being Done Now.

You Can Tell This By The Program The Federal Government Had To Train 2,400 Tractor Drivers. They Would Have Trained Negro And White Together, But This Man, Congressman Jamie Whitten, Voted Against It And Everything That Was Decent. So, We've Got To Have Somebody In Washington Who Is Concerned About The People Of Mississippi.
