No race has a monopoly on vice or virtue, and the worth of an individual is not related to the color of his skin.

You can holler, protest, march, picket and demonstrate, but somebody must be able to sit in on the strategy conferences and plot a course. There must be strategies, the researchers, the professionals to carry out the program. That's our role.

Black is beautiful when it is a slum kid studying to enter college, when it is a man learning new skills for a new job. . . .

Stretch your mind and fly.

We create an environment where it is alright to hate, to steal, to cheat, and to lie if we dress it up with symbols of respectability, dignity and love.

Every man is our brother, and every man’s burden is our own. Where poverty exists, all are poorer. Where hate flourishes, all are corrupted. Where injustice reins, all are unequal.

No race has a monopoly on vice or virtue, and the worth of an individual is not related to the color of his skin.
