“Unfortunately, the greater consciousness among Whites about Black equality has not carried over to the new victims of racism - Muslims and Immigrants. There is no racial enlightenment for these groups, which are huge. Millions of Muslims and an equal number of immigrants, who whether legal or illegal, face discrimination both legally from the government and extra-legally from White Americans - and sometimes Black and Hispanic Americans. The Democratic Presidential candidates are avoiding these issues in order to cultivate support among White Americans.” SometimesGovernmentFacesOrderBlackWhiteNumbersConsciousnessMillionsSupportIssuesGreaterGroupsHugeEqualRacismEnlightenmentVictimDemocraticDiscriminationPresidentialExtrasCandidatesImmigrantsIllegalAvoidingHispanicPresidential Candidate Author:Howard Zinn
“I'm not against knowing the history of white people in the U.S. - that's not the point. The point is that there's so much greater history. We don't know about Native Americans. Very basically, we don't know that much about African American history, except that they were enslaved. You only get bits and pieces.” PeopleKnowsBitsWhiteKnowingGreaterPiecesAfrican AmericanNativeNative AmericanAmerican HistoryBits And PiecesAfrican American History Author:Luis J. Rodriguez
“There is a reason why one man is born black and with other disadvantages, while another is born white with great advantages. The reason is that we once had an estate before we came here, and were obedient; more or less, to the laws that were given us there. Those who were faithful in all things there received greater blessings here, and those who were not faithful received less” MenReasonLawGivenBlackBornWhiteGreaterBlessingAdvantageAll ThingsReason WhyFaithfulOne ManEstatesDisadvantagesObedientPriesthood Book:Doctrines of Salvation: Sermons and Writings Source: Doctrines of Salvation: Sermons and Writings
“If you follow only one rule, let it be this one: Be yourself. The really strong boy-girl relationships are based on what people really are, not on what they pretend to be. Each time you are honest and conduct yourself with honesty, a success force will drive you toward greater success. Each time you lie, even with a little white lie, there are strong forces pushing you toward failure.” PeopleIfsLittlesLyingGirlStrongForceWhiteBoysGreaterHonestHonestyBeing YourselfPushingWhite LieBoy Girl Author:Joseph Sugarman
“The use of violence in our struggle would be both impractical and immoral. To meet hate with retaliatory hate would do nothing but intensify the existence of evil in the universe. Hate begets hate; violence begets violence; toughness begets a greater toughness. We must meet the forces of hate with the power of love; we must meet physical force with soul force. Our aim must never be to defeat or humiliate the white man, but to win his friendship and understanding.” MenSoulUseWould BeHateUniverseEvilWinningForceUnderstandingWhiteExistenceStruggleGreaterViolenceAimDefeatWhite ManImmoralBegetsPower Of LoveToughnessHumiliatePhysical ForceSoul Force Book:A Martin Luther King Treasury Source: A Martin Luther King Treasury
“The lesson this teaches and which every Afro-American should ponder well, is that a Winchester rifle should have a place of honor in every black home, and it should be used for that protection which the law refuses to give. When the white man who is always the aggressor knows he runs as great a risk of biting the dust every time his Afro-American victim does, he will have greater respect for Afro-American life. The more the Afro-American yields and cringes and begs, the more he has to do so, the more he is insulted, outraged and lynched.” KnowsMenGivingShouldWellsDoeHomeRunningLawUsedBlackWhiteTeachGreaterRiskHonorLessonsShould HaveVictimRefuseProtectionDustYieldWhite ManPonderingRiflesAmerican LifeInsultedBitingOutragedCringeAggressorsAfros Book:On Lynchings Source: On Lynchings
