Stokely Carmichael Quotes

• La política del Dr. King era: si eres no violento, si sufres, tu oponente verá tu sufrimiento y se sentirá movido a cambiar su corazón. Eso es muy bueno. Sólo hizo una suposición falaz. Para que la no violencia funcione, tu oponente debe tener conciencia. Estados Unidos no tiene ninguna.

• Este país es una nación de ladrones. Robó todo lo que tiene, empezando por los negros. Estados Unidos ya no puede justificar su existencia como policía del mundo. No quiero formar parte del pastel americano. El pastel americano significa violar Sudáfrica, golpear Vietnam, golpear Sudamérica, violar Filipinas, violar todos los países en los que has estado. No quiero nada de tu dinero manchado de sangre. No quiero formar parte de ese sistema. Debemos cuestionarnos si queremos o no que este país siga siendo el más rico del mundo al precio de violar a todos los demás.
