“If Martin Luther King looked at the Obama administration and saw an intimate connection with Wall Street, he'd be very critical. If he saw drones being dropped on innocent people, he'd be very critical. If he saw rights and liberties violated by secret policies of the government, of the kind we've seen by the National Security Agency, he'd be very critical.” PeopleIfsKindGovernmentSecretLibertySawsRightsStreetsSecurityPolicyWallKingsConnectionsCriticalInnocentAdministrationIntimateAgencyNational SecurityLutherDrones Author:Cornel West
“America was the first country in history to be founded on, people have rights. Not the divine right of kings, not the emperor's a god, or idolized, or we have to do what the dear leader says.

“There never has been a desire on the part of the government that the struggle of Black people in America should be linked to the struggle of our people in every part of the earth. Every leader that was international in scope and in reach became the target of the government - Paul Robeson, Marcus Garvey, W.E.B. DuBois, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, Kwame Ture and the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Any Black leader who would try to connect us to our brothers and sisters in Africa and Asia were seen as a threat and became a target.” PeopleShouldTryingHas BeensGovernmentEarthAmericaDesireBlackLeaderStruggleBrotherKingsThreatInternationalTargetBlack PeopleHonorableAsiaBrothers And SistersLinkedScopeLutherMuhammadElijahElijah MuhammadHonorable Elijah MuhammadDubois Author:Louis Farrakhan

“Satan has control now. No matter where you look, he is in control, even in our own land. He is guiding the governments as far as the Lord will permit him. That is why there is so much strife, turmoil, and confusion all over the earth. One master mind is governing the nations. It is not the president of the United States; it is not Hitler; it is not Mussolini; it is not the king or government of England or any other land; it is Satan himself.” MindLooksMatterStatesGovernmentEarthNationsPresidentUnitedLordUnited StatesLandMastersKingsEnglandConfusionSatanPermitStrifeGoverningTurmoil Book:Doctrines of Salvation: Sermons and Writings Source: Doctrines of Salvation: Sermons and Writings

“The obligation d'âme meant that his only allegiance was to Felix, making them a separate kingdom of two, with Felix as king and Mildmay as ministers, army, and populace all combined in one. A stormy little kingdom, I thought, with periodic flare-ups of civil war and a magnificently unstable government.
