I have quite a few good friends in Philadelphia who were police officers.

The people have now come to realize that the only way to deal with the oppressor is to deal on our own terms and this was done.

I always tried to raise money for the Black Panthers through business schemes.

We were not talking about the average white person: we was talking about the corporate money rich and the racist jive politicians and the lackeys, as we used to call them, for the government who perpetuate all this exploitation and racism.

To develop political and economic power in a capitalist society, you need capital.

There's nothing wrong with being a cop. There's nothing wrong with being a white person. It's about where your heart is...We've got to get everyone beyond the xenophobic isolationism.

A people who have suffered so much for so long at the hands of a racist society must draw the line somewhere.
