I am against the fact that a settler minority should impose an entire system of values on an indigenous people.

It becomes more necessary to see the truth as it is if you realize that the only vehicle for change are these people who have lost their personality.

To a large extent the evil-doers have succeeded in producing at the output end of their machine a kind of black man who is man only in form. This is the extent to which the process of dehumanization has advanced.

I'm going to be me as I am, and you can beat me or jail me or even kill me, but I'm not going to be what you want me to be.

Any warning normally implies, even if it is tacit, that there should be changes

Change the way people think and things will never be the same

We do not want to be reminded that it is we, the indigenous people, who are poor and exploited in the land of our birth. These are concepts which the Black Consciousness approach wishes to eradicate from the black man's mind before our society is driven to chaos by irresponsible people from Coca-cola and hamburger cultural backgrounds.
