“The Frankenstein of Communism is the product of the Jewish mind, and was turned loose upon the world by the son of a Rabbi, Karl Marx, in the hopes of destroying Christian civilization - as well as others. The testimony given before the Senate of the United States which is take from the many pages of the Overman Report, reveals beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jewish bankers financed the Russian Revolution.” WorldMindWellsStatesChristianGivenUnitedUnited StatesDoubtSonProductsRevolutionCivilizationPagesShadowJewCommunismReportsDestroyingSenateTestimonyBankersRabbiRussian Revolution Author:Kenneth Goff

“A revolution is bloody, but America is in a unique position. She's the only country in history in a position actually to become involved in a bloodless revolution. The Russian revolution was bloody, Chinese revolution was bloody, French revolution was bloody, Cuban revolution was bloody, and there was nothing more bloody then the American Revolution. But today this country can become involved in a revolution that won't take bloodshed. All she's got to do is give the black man in this country everything that's due him, everything.” MenGivingCountryTodayAmericaBlackPositionRevolutionInvolvedUniqueDuesChineseBloodyAmerican RevolutionCubanBloodshedFrench RevolutionRussian RevolutionCuban RevolutionChinese Revolution Author:Malcolm X
“More than one branch of the avant-garde, claiming to break with the bourgeois vision and mode of production, remains tied to it in spite of its denials and ex-communications. We are far from having overcome bourgeois thought or practices, despite the socialist "intermission" between the Russian revolution and the collapse of the Berlin wall. The avant-garde has lost its radical nature. On the other hand, "bourgeois theatre" is sometimes subtle enough to flirt with the avant-garde or to make "intelligent boulevard theatre.” SometimesEnoughHandsLostVisionBreakPracticeCommunicationRevolutionWallOvercomingIntelligentRemainsProductionsTheatreDespiteRadicalDenialBranchesSpiteSubtleCollapseTiedSocialistFlirtingExesBerlinBourgeoisAvant GardeBerlin WallBoulevardRussian RevolutionIntermission Author:Patrice Pavis

“In the 19th century it was basically nationality and people trying to define their nationalism and create states which would reflect their nationalism.

But the idea of an American revolution does not occur to most people. And when I came down to the movement milieu seventy-five years ago, the black movement was just starting, and the war in Europe had brought into being the "Double V for Victory" [campaign]: the idea was that we ought to win democracy abroad with democracy at home.
