The Essence Of Politics Is To Direct

Black Consciousness Is An Attitude Of The Mind And A Way Of Life, The Most Positive Call To Emanate From The Black World For A Long Time. Its Essence Is The Realisation By The Black Man Of The Need To Rally Together With His Brothers Around The Cause Of Their Oppression - The Blackness Of Their Skin - And To Operate As A Group To Rid Themselves Of The Shackles That Bind Them To Perpetual Servitude.

If One Is Free At Heart, No Man-made Chains Can Bind One To Servitude.

Sure There Are A Few Good Whites Just As Much As There Are A Few Bad Blacks. However What We Are Concerned Here With Is Group Attitudes And Group Politics. The Exception Does Not Make A Lie Or The Rule - It Merely Substantiates It.

Black Consciousness Therefore Takes Cognizance Of The Deliberateness Of God's Plan In Creating Black People Black.

If You Want To Say Something Radical, You Should Dress Conservative.
