The essence of politics is to direct oneself to the group which wields power

In all fields black consciousness seeks to talk to the black man in a language that is his own

We believe it is the duty of the vanguard political movement which brings change to educate people's outlook

If you want to say something radical, you should dress conservative.

When you say 'Black is beautiful' you are saying, 'Man you are okay as you are, begin to look upon yourself as a human being'.

The oneness of community for instance is at the heart of our culture.

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.
