We've got to face the fact that some people say you fight fire best with fire, but we say you put fire out best with water. We say you don't fight racism with racism. We're gonna fight racism with solidarity.

Fred HamptonYou donโt fight fire with fire. You fight fire with water. Weโre gonna fight racism with solidarity. We're not gonna fight capitalism with Black capitalism. Weโre gonna fight capitalism with socialism. Socialism is the people. If youโre afraid of socialism, youโre afraid of yourself.
Fred HamptonWe're going to fight racism not with racism, but we're going to fight with solidarity. We say we're not going to fight capitalism with black capitalism, but we're going to fight it with socialism.
