...White folk got all the guns and ammunition and the White folk hold all the key positions. Can it be, Dear Lord, that they're protecting a vested interest? Can it be that there really isn't very much room at the top and they feel insecure that some of them will be displaced? Or can it be, Oh God, that we just aren't to live together in harmony and there is a "Black Heaven" and a "White Heaven" and you just haven't told us about it?

...Black man, Charles Nesbitt, once said that "many Blacks have middle-class values but lower-class pocketbooks." Is this a reason why we can't live together?

So I ask you, who will police the policeman and who will correct the "White right." The "White right" (fairness, honesty, impartiality, correctness, efficiency, etc.) has always been to exploit and keep the Black man down. He has had a full White program going for him in brainwashing the Black man with such myths as "White is Right," "Yellow is mellow," "Black stay Back," "Devil's-food cake is Black...
Dear Lord, Your Chief Servant, the Minister of Church has been led by the whites to preach and teach, "If you're hit on one cheek, turn the other." But Blacks across the nation have adopted the philosophy "If you raise your white hand to hit or misuse me or mine, whoe gonna put out the fire at the fire station...
