Mr. Moderator, Reverend Cleage, Brother Lomax,
brothers and sisters, and friends
-- and I  see some enemies.
In fact, I think we'd be
fooling ourselves if we had an audience
this large and didn't realize that there were some
enemies present.
This afternoon we want to talk about "The
ballot or the bullet."
The ballot or the bullet explains itself.
But before we get into it,
since this is the year of the ballot or the bullet,
I would like to clarify some things
that refer to me personally
concerning my own personal position.
I'm still a Muslim. That is, my religion is
still Islam. My religion is still Islam.
My religion is still Islam.
I still credit Mr. Mohammed for what I know
and what I am.
He's the one who opened my eyes.
At present, I'm the Minister of the
newly founded Muslim Mosque, Incorporated,
which has its offices in the Teresa Hotel,
right in the heart of Harlem -- that's the
black belt in New York city.
And when we realize that
Adam Clayton Powell is a Christian minister,
he's the -- he heads Abyssinian Baptist Church,
but at the same time, he's more famous for
his political struggling.
And Dr. King is a Christian Minister, in Atlanta
 -- from Atlanta Georgia -- or in Atlanta,
Georgia, but he's become more famous for being
involved in the civil rights struggle. There's
another in New York, Reverend Galamison --
 I don't know if you've heard of him out here
-- he's a Christian Minister from Brooklyn,
but has become famous for his fight against
a segregated school system in Brooklyn. Reverend
Cleage, right here, is a Christian Minister,
here in Detroit. He's the head of the "Freedom
Now Party." All of these are Christian Ministers
-- All of these are Christian Ministers,
but they don't come to us as Christian Ministers.
They come to us as fighters in some other
category.
I'm a Muslim minister. The same as they are
Christian Ministers, I'm a Muslim minister.
And I don't believe in fighting today in any
one front, but on all fronts.
In fact, I'm a "Black Nationalist Freedom Fighter."
Islam is my religion, but I believe my religion
is my personal business.
It governs my personal
life, my personal morals. And my religious
philosophy is personal between me and the
God in whom I believe; just as the religious
philosophy of these others is between them
and the God in whom they believe.
And this is best this way. Were we to come
out here discussing religion, we'd have too
many differences from the outstart and we
could never get together. So today, though
Islam is my religious philosophy, my political,
economic, and social philosophy is Black Nationalism.
You and I --
As I say, if we bring up religion
we'll have differences; we'll have arguments;
and we'll never be able to get together. But
if we keep our religion at home, keep our
religion in the closet, keep our religion
between ourselves and our God, but when we
come out here, we have a fight that's common
to all of us against a enemy who is
common to all of us.
The political philosophy of Black Nationalism
only means that the black man should control
the politics and the politicians in his own community.
The -- The time -- The time when white people
can come in our community and get us to vote
for them so that they can be our political
leaders and tell us what to do and what not
to do is long gone.
By the same token, the
time when that same white man, knowing that
your eyes are too far open, can send another
negro into the community and get you and me
to support him so he can use him to lead us
astray -- those days are long gone too.
The political philosophy of Black Nationalism
only means that if you and I are going to
live in a Black community -- and that's where
we're going to live, 'cause as soon as you
move into one of their -- soon as you move
out of the Black community into their community,
it's mixed for a period of time, but they're
gone and you're right there all by yourself again.
We must -- We must understand the politics
of our community and we must know what politics
is supposed to produce. We must know what
part politics play in our lives. And until
we become politically mature we will always
be mislead, lead astray, or deceived or maneuvered
into supporting someone politically who doesn't
have the good of our community at heart.
So the political philosophy of Black Nationalism
only means that we will have to carry on a
program, a political program, of re-education
to open our people's eyes, make us become
more politically conscious, politically mature,
and then we will -- whenever we get ready
to cast our ballot, that ballot will be --
 will be cast for a man of the community who
has the good of the community of heart.
The economic philosophy of Black Nationalism
only means that we should own and operate
and control the economy of our community.
You would never -- You can't open up a black
store in a white community. White men won't
even patronize you. And he's not wrong. He's
got sense enough to look out for himself.
You the one who don't have sense enough to
look out for yourself.
The white man -- The
white man is too intelligent to let someone
else come and gain control of the economy
of his community. But you will let anybody
come in and take control of the economy of
your community, control the housing, control
the education, control the jobs, control the
businesses, under the pretext that you want
to integrate. No, you're out of your mind.
The political -- The economic philosophy of
Black Nationalism only means that we have
to become involved in a program of reeducation
to educate our people into the importance
of knowing that when you spend your dollar
out of the community in which you live, the
community in which you spend your money becomes
richer and richer; the community out of which
you take your money becomes poorer and poorer.
And because these negroes, who have been mislead,
misguided, are breaking their necks to take
their money and spend it with The Man, The
Man is becoming richer and richer, and you're
becoming poorer and poorer. And then what
happens? The community in which you live becomes
a slum. It becomes a ghetto. The conditions
become run down. And then you have the audacity
to -- to complain about poor housing in a
run-down community. Why you run it down yourself
when you take your dollar out.
And you and I are in a double-track, because
not only do we lose by taking our money someplace
else and spending it, when we try and spend
it in our own community we're trapped because
we haven't had sense enough to set up stores
and control the businesses of our community.
The man who's controlling the stores in our
community is a man who doesn't look like we do.
He's a man who doesn't even live in the
community. So you and I, even when we try
and spend our money in the block where we
live or the area where we live, we're spending
it with a man who, when the sun goes down,
takes that basket full of money in another
part of the town.
So we're trapped, trapped, double-trapped,
triple-trapped. Anywhere we go we find that
we're trapped. And every kind of solution
that someone comes up with is just another
trap. But the political and economic philosophy
of Black Nationalism -- the economic philosophy
of Black Nationalism shows our people the
importance of setting up these little stores
and developing them and expanding them into
larger operations. Woolworth didn't start
out big like they are today. They started
out with a dime store and expanded and expanded
and then expanded until today, they're are
all over the country and all over the world,
and they get to some of everybody's money.
Now this is what you and I -- General Motors'
the same way. They didn't start out like
it is. It started out just a little rat race
type operation. And it expanded and it expanded
until today it's where it is right now. And
you and I have to make a start and the best
place to start is right in the community where
we live.
So our people not only have to be reeducated
to the importance of supporting black business,
but the black man himself has to be made aware
of the importance of going into business.
And once you and I go into business, we own
and operate at least the businesses in our
community. What we will be doing is developing
a situation wherein we will actually be able
to create employment for the people in the
community. And once you can create some --
some employment in the community where you
live it will eliminate the necessity of you
and me having to act ignorantly and disgracefully,
boycotting and picketing some "cracker" some
place else trying to beg him for a job.
Anytime you have to rely upon your enemy for
a job, you're in bad shape.
When you have
-- He is your enemy. Let me tell you, you
wouldn't be in this country if some enemy
hadn't kidnapped you and brought you here.
On the other hand, some of you think you came here on the Mayflower.
So as you can see brothers and sisters, today
 -- this afternoon, it's not our intention
to discuss religion. We're going to forget
religion. If we bring up religion, we'll be
in an argument, and the best way to keep away
from arguments and differences, as I said
earlier, put your religion at home -- in the
closet. Keep it between you and your God.
Because if it hasn't done anything more for
you than it has, you need to forget it anyway.
Whether you are -- Whether you are a Christian,
or a Muslim, or a Nationalist, we all have
the same problem. They don't hang you because
you're a Baptist; they hang you 'cause you're black.
They don't attack me because I'm a
Muslim; they attack me 'cause I'm black.
They attack all of us for the same reason; all
of us catch hell from the same enemy. We're
all in the same bag, in the same boat. We
suffer political oppression, economic exploitation,
and social degradation -- all of them from
the same enemy. The government has failed
us; you can't deny that. Anytime you live
in the twentieth century, 1964, and you walkin'
around here singing "We Shall Overcome," the
government has failed us.
This is part of what's wrong with you -- 
you do too much singing.
Today it's time to stop singing
and start swinging.
You can't sing up on freedom,
but you can swing up on some freedom.
Cassius Clay can sing, but singing
didn't help him to become the heavyweight
champion of the world; swinging helped him
become the heavyweight champion.
This government has failed us;
the government itself has failed us,
and the white liberals
who have been posing as our friends
have failed us.
And once we see that all these other sources
to which we've turned have failed,
we stop turning to them and turn to ourselves. We
need a self help program, a do-it -- a-do-it-yourself
philosophy, a do-it-right-now philosophy,
a it's-already-too-late philosophy.
This is what you and I need to get with, and the only
time -- the only way we're going to solve
our problem is with a self-help program. Before
we can get a self-help program started we
have to have a self-help philosophy.
Black Nationalism is a self-help philosophy.
What's so good about it? You can stay right
in the church where you are and still take
Black Nationalism as your philosophy.
You can stay in any kind of civic organization
that you belong to and still take black nationalism
as your philosophy. You can be an atheist
and still take black nationalism as your philosophy.
This is a philosophy that eliminates the necessity
for division and argument. 'Cause if you're
black you should be thinking black, and if
you are black and you not thinking black at
this late date, well I'm sorry for you.
Once you change your philosophy, you change
your thought pattern. Once you change your
thought pattern, you change your -- your attitude.
Once you change your attitude, it changes
your behavior pattern and then you go on into
some action. As long as you gotta sit-down
philosophy, you'll have a sit-down thought
pattern, and as long as you think that old
sit-down thought you'll be in some kind of
sit-down action. They'll have you sittin' in everywhere.
It's not so good to refer to
what you're going to do as a "sit-in."
That right there castrates you. Right there it
brings you down. What -- What goes with it?
What -- Think of the image of a someone sitting.
An old woman can sit. An old man can sit.
A chump can sit. A coward can sit. Anything
can sit. Well you and I been sitting long
enough, and it's time today for us to start
doing some standing, and some fighting to
back that up.
When we look like -- at other parts of this
earth upon which we live, we find that black,
brown, red, and yellow people in Africa and
Asia are getting their independence. They're
not getting it by singing "We Shall Overcome."
No, they're getting it through nationalism.
It is nationalism that brought about the independence
of the people in Asia. Every nation in Asia
gained its independence through the philosophy
of nationalism. Every nation on the African
continent that has gotten its independence
brought it about through the philosophy of
nationalism. And it will take black nationalism
 -- that to bring about the freedom of 22
million Afro-Americans here in this country
where we have suffered colonialism for the
past 400 years.
America is just as much a colonial power as
England ever was. America is just as much
a colonial power as France ever was. In fact,
America is more so a colonial power than they
because she's a hypocritical colonial power
behind it.
What is 20th -- What do you call second class
citizenship? Why, that's colonization. Second
class citizenship is nothing but 20th century
slavery. How you gonna tell me you're a second
class citizen? They don't have second class
citizenship in any other government on this
earth. They just have slaves and people who
are free. Well this country is a hypocrite.
They try and make you think they set you free
by calling you a second class citizen. No,
you're nothing but a 20th century slave.
Just as it took nationalism to move -- to
remove colonialism from Asia and Africa, it'll
take black nationalism today to remove colonialism
from the backs and the minds of 22 million
Afro-Americans here in this country.
And 1964 looks like it might be the year of
the ballot or the bullet.
Why does it look like it might be the year
of the ballot or the bullet? Because Negroes
have listened to the trickery, and the lies,
and the false promises of the white man now
for too long. And they're fed up. They've
become disenchanted. They've become disillusioned.
They've become dissatisfied, and all of this
has built up frustrations in the black community
that makes the black community throughout
America today more explosive than all of the
atomic bombs the Russians can ever invent.
Whenever you got a racial powder keg sitting
in your lap, you're in more trouble than if
you had an atomic powder keg sitting in your
lap. When a racial powder keg goes off, it
doesn't care who it knocks out the way. Understand
this, it's dangerous.
And in 1964 this seems to be the year, because
what can the white man use now to fool us
after he put down that march on Washington?
And you see all through that now. He tricked
you, had you marching down to Washington.
Yes, had you marching back and forth between
the feet of a dead man named Lincoln and another
dead man named George Washington singing "We
Shall Overcome." He made a chump out of you.
He made a fool out of you. He made you think
you were going somewhere and you end up going
nowhere but between Lincoln and Washington.
So today, our people are disillusioned. They've
become disenchanted. They've become dissatisfied,
and in their frustrations they want action.
And in 1964 you'll see this young black man,
this new generation asking for the ballot
or the bullet. That old Uncle Tom action is
outdated. The young generation don't want
to hear anything about the odds are against
us. What do we care about odds?
When this country here was first being founded
there were 13 colonies. The -- The whites
were colonized. They were fed up with this
taxation without representation, so some of
them stood up and said "liberty or death."
Though I went to a white school over here
in Mason, Michigan, the white man made the
mistake of letting me read his history books.
He made the mistake of teaching me that Patrick
Henry was a patriot, and George Washington,
wasn't nothing non-violent about old Pat or
George Washington.
Liberty or death was what brought about the
freedom of whites in this country from the
English. They didn't care about the odds.
Why they faced the wrath of the entire British
Empire. And in those days they used to say
that the British Empire was so vast and so
powerful when the sun -- the sun would never
set on it. This is how big it was, yet these
13 little scrawny states, tired of taxation
without representation, tired of being exploited
and oppressed and degraded, told that big
British Empire "liberty or death."
And here you have 22 million Afro-American
black people today catching more hell than
Patrick Henry ever saw. And I'm -- I'm here
to tell you in case you don't know it --
that you got a new -- you got a new generation
of black people in this country who don't
care anything whatsoever about odds. They
don't want to hear you old Uncle Tom handkerchief
heads talking about the odds. No. This is
a new generation. If they're gonna draft these
young black men and send them over to Korea
or South Vietnam to face 800 million Chinese
-- if you're not afraid of those odds, you
shouldn't be afraid of these odds.
Why is -- Why does this loom to be such an
explosive political year? Because this is
the year of politics. This is the year when
all of the white politicians are going to
come into the Negro community. You never see
them until election time. You can't find them
until election time. They're going to come
in with false promises, and as they make these
false promises they're gonna feed our frustrations
and this will only serve to make matters worse.
I'm no politician. I'm not even a student
of politics. I'm not a Republican, nor a Democrat,
nor an American, and got sense enough to know
it. I'm one of the 22 million black victims
of the Democrats, one of the 22 million black
victims of the Republicans, and one of the
22 million black victims of Americanism. And
when I speak, I don't speak as a Democrat,
or a Republican, *nor an American.* I speak
as a victim of America's so-called democracy.
You and I have never seen democracy; all we've
seen is hypocrisy. When we open our eyes today
and look around America, we see America not
through the eyes of someone who have -- who
has enjoyed the fruits of Americanism, we
see America through the eyes of someone who
has been the victim of Americanism. We don't
see any American dream; we've experienced
only the American nightmare. We haven't benefited
from America's democracy; we've only suffered
from America's hypocrisy. And the generation
that's coming up now can see it and are not
afraid to say it.
If you -- If you go to jail, so what? If you
black, you were born in jail. If you black,
you were born in jail, in the North as well
as the South. Stop talking about the South.
Long as you south of the -- Long as you south
of the Canadian border, you're south. Don't
call Governor Wallace a Dixie governor; Romney
is a Dixie governor.
Twenty-two million black victims of Americanism
are waking up and they're gaining a new political
consciousness, becoming politically mature.
And as they become -- develop this political
maturity, they're able to see the recent trends
in these political elections. They see that
the whites are so evenly divided that every
time they vote the race is so close they have
to go back and count the votes all over again.
And that...which means that any block, any
minority that has a block of votes that stick
together is in a strategic position. Either
way you go, that's who gets it. You're --
 You're in a position to determine who will
go to the White House and who will stay in
the dog house. You're the one who has that
power. You can keep Johnson in Washington
D.C., or you can send him back to his Texas
cotton patch. You're the one who sent Kennedy
to Washington. You're the one who put the
present Democratic Administration in Washington
D.C. The whites were evenly divided. It was
the fact that you threw 80 percent of your
votes behind the Democrats that put the Democrats
in the White House.
When you see this, you can see that the Negro
vote is the key factor. And despite the fact
that you are in a position to -- to be the
determining factor, what do you get out of
it? The Democrats have been in Washington
D.C. only because of the Negro vote. They've
been down there four years, and they're --
 all other legislation they wanted to bring
up they brought it up and gotten it out of
the way, and now they bring up you. And now,
they bring up you. You put them first, and
they put you last, 'cause you're a chump,
a political chump.
In Washington D.C., in the House of Representatives,
there are 257 who are Democrats; only 177
are Republican. In the Senate there are 67
Democrats; only 33 are Republicans. The Party
that you backed controls two-thirds of the
House of Representatives and the Senate, and
still they can't keep their promise to you,
'cause you're a chump. Anytime you throw your
weight behind a political party that controls
two-thirds of the government, and that Party
can't keep the promise that it made to you
during election time, and you're dumb enough
to walk around continuing to identify yourself
with that Party, you're not only a chump,
but you're a traitor to your race.
And what kind of alibi do they come up with?
They try and pass the buck to the Dixiecrats.
Now back during the days when you were blind,
deaf, and dumb, ignorant, politically immature,
naturally you went along with that. But today
as your eyes come open, and you develop political
maturity, you're able to see and think for
yourself, and you can see that a Dixiecrat
is nothing but a Democrat in disguise.
You look at the structure of the government
that controls this country; it's controlled
by 16 senatorial committees and 20 congressional
committees. Of the 16 senatorial committees
that run the government, 10 of them are in
the hands of Southern segregationists. Of
the 20 congressional committees that run the
government, 12 of them in the -- are in the
hands of Southern segregationists. And they're
going to tell you and me that the South lost
the war.
You, today, have -- are in the hands of a
government of segregationists, racists, white
supremacists who belong to the Democratic
party, but disguise themselves as Dixiecrats.
A Dixiecrat is nothing but a Democrat. Whoever
runs the Democrats is also the father of the
Dixiecrats, and the father of all of them
is sitting in the White House. I say and I
say it again: You got a President who's nothing
but a Southern segregationist from the state
of Texas. They'll lynch you in Texas as quick
as they'll lynch you in Mississippi. Only
in -- in Texas they lynch you with a Texas
accent; in Mississippi they lynch you with
a Mississippi accent.
And the first thing the cracker does when
he comes in power, he takes all the Negro
leaders and invites them for coffee to show
that he's alright. And those Uncle Toms can't
pass up the coffee. They come away from the
coffee table telling you and me that this
man is alright 'cause he's from the South,
and since he's from the South he can deal
with the South. Look at the logic that they're
using. What about Eastland? He's from the
South. Make him the President. He can -- 
If Johnson is a good man 'cause he's from
Texas, and being from Texas will enable him
to deal with the South, Eastland can deal
with the South better than Johnson. Oh, I
say you been mislead. You been had. You been
took.
I was in Washington a couple weeks ago while
the Senators were filibustering, and I noticed
in the back of the Senate a huge map, and
on this map it showed the distribution of
Negroes in America, and surprisingly the same
Senators that were involved in the filibuster
were from the states where there were the
most Negroes. Why were they filibustering
the civil rights legislation? Because the
civil rights legislation is supposed to guarantee
voting rights to Negroes in those states,
and those senators from those states know
that if the Negroes in those states can vote,
those senators are down the drain. The Representatives
of those states go down the drain. And in
the Constitution of this country it has a
stipulation wherein whenever the rights, the
voting rights, of people in a certain district
are violated, then the Representative who
 -- who's from that particular district, according
to the Constitution, is supposed to be expelled
from the Congress. Now, if this particular
aspect of the Constitution was enforced, why
you wouldn't have a cracker in Washington
D.C. But what would happen when you expel
the Dixiecrat, you're expelling the Democrat.
When you destroy the power of the Dixiecrat,
you're destroying the power -- power of the
Democratic Party. So how in the world can
the Democratic Party in the South actually
side with you in sincerity, when all of its
power is based in the -- in the South?
These Northern Democrats are in cahoots with
the Southern Democrats. They're playing a
giant con game, a political con game. You
know how it goes. One of them -- One of them
comes to you and makes believe he's for you,
and he's in cahoots with the other one that's
not for you. Why? Because neither one of them
is for you, but they got to make you go with
one of them or the other. So this is a con
game. And this is what they've been doing
with you and me all these years.
You know who "Dicky" is? Dicky is old Southern
cracker Richard -- Richard Russell. Look here,
that are filibustering civil rights legislation.
You tell me how in the hell is he going to
be Johnson's best friend? How can Johnson
be his friend and your friend too? No, that
man is too tricky. Especially if his friend
is still old Dicky.
Whenever the Negroes keep the Democrats in
power, they're keeping the Dixiecrats in power.
Is this true? A vote for a Democrat is nothing
but a vote for a Dixiecrat. I know you don't

but a vote for a Dixiecrat. I know you don't
like me saying that, but I...I'm not the kind
of person who come here to say what you like.
I'm going to tell you the truth whether you
like it or not.
Up here, in the North you have the same thing.
The Democratic Party don't -- don't do it
-- they don't do it that way. They got a
thing that they call gerrymandering. They
-- They maneuver you out of power. Even though
you can vote, they fix it so you're voting
for nobody; they got you going and coming.
In the South, they're outright political wolves.
the dog family. Now you take your choice.
You going to choose a Northern dog or a Southern
the dog family. Now you take your choice.

you you'll still be in the dog house.

This is why I say it's the ballot or the bullet.
It's liberty or it's death. It's freedom for
everybody or freedom for nobody. America today
finds herself in a unique situation. Historically,
revolutions are bloody. Oh, yes, they are.
They haven't never had a blood-less revolution,
or a non-violent revolution. That don't happen
even in Hollywood. You don't have a revolution
Whenever the Negroes keep the Democrats in
power, they're keeping the Dixiecrats in power.

You going to choose a Northern dog or a Southern

into it. Revolutions overturn systems. Revolutions
destroy systems.
A revolution is bloody, but America is in
a unique position. She's the only country
in history in a position actually to become
involved in a blood-less revolution. The

not for integration. What you and I is for
is freedom. Only you think that integration
will get you freedom, I think separation will
get me freedom. We both got the same objective.
We just got different ways of getting at it.
So I...studied this man, Billy Graham, who
preaches White Nationalism. That's what he
preaches. I say that's what he preaches. The
whole church structure in this country is
White Nationalism. You go inside a white church
 -- that's what they preaching: White Nationalism.
They got Jesus white, Mary white, God white,
everybody white -- that's White Nationalism.
So what he does -- the way he -- the way he
 -- the way he circumvents the -- the jealousy
and envy that he ordinarily would incur among
the heads of the church, wherever he go into
an area where the church already is you going
into trouble, 'cause they got that thing 
-- what you call it -- syndicated, they got
a syndicate just like the Racketeers have.
I'm going to say what's on my mind 'cause
the churches are, the preachers already proved
to you that they got a syndicate.
And when you're out in the rackets, whenever
you're getting in another man's territory,
you know, they gang up on you. And that's
the same way with you -- you ran into the
and let the world see that Uncle Sam is guilty
of violating the human rights of 22 million
Afro-Americans....
It's a government filibuster. Any kind of
activity that takes place on the floor of
the Congress or the Senate, that's the government.
Any kind of dilly-dallying, that's the government.
Any kind of pussy-footing, that's the government.
Any kind of act that's designed to delay or
deprive you and me right now of getting full
rights, that's the government that's responsible.
And any time you find the government involved
in a conspiracy to violate the citizenship
or the civil rights of a people, then you
are wasting your time going to that government
expecting redress. Instead, you have to take
that government to the World Court and accuse
it of genocide and all of the other crimes
that it is guilty of today.
So those of us whose political, and economic,
and social philosophy is Black Nationalism
have become involved in the civil rights struggle.
We have injected ourselves into the civil
rights struggle, and we intend to expand it
from the level of civil rights to the level
of human rights. As long as you're -- As long
as you're fighting on the level of civil rights,
you're under Uncle Sam's jurisdiction. You're
going to his court expecting him to correct
the problem. He created the problem. He's
the criminal. You don't take your case to
the criminal; you take your criminal to court.
When the government of South Africa began
to trample upon the human rights of the people
of South Africa, they were taken to the U.N.
When the government of Portugal began to trample
upon the -- the rights of our brothers and
sisters in Angola, it was taken before the
U.N. Why even the white man took the Hungarian
question to the U.N. And just this week Chief
Justice Goldberg was crying over 3 million
Jews in Russia about their human rights, charging
Russia with violating the U.N. charter because
of its mistreatment of the human rights of
Jews in Russia.
Now you tell me how can the plight of everybody
on this earth reach the halls of the United
Nations, and you have 22 million Afro-Americans
whose churches are being bombed, whose little
girls are being murdered, whose -- whose leaders
are being shot down in broad daylight. Now
you tell me why the leaders of this struggle
have never taken it before the United Nations.
So our next move is to take the entire civil
rights struggle problem into the United Nations
and let the world see that Uncle Sam is guilty
of violating the human rights of 22 million
Afro-Americans....
[short audio gap...content uncertain]
[Uncle Sam...] and still has the audacity
or the nerve to stand up and represent himself
as the leader of the free world. Not only
is he a crook, he's a hypocrite. There he

So, I say in my conclusion the only way we're
going to solve it -- we gotta unite in unity
and harmony, and Black Nationalism is the
key. How we gonna overcome the tendency to
be at each other's throats that always exists
in our neighborhoods? And the reason this
tendency exists, the strategy of the white
man has always been divide and conquer. He
keeps us divided in order to conquer us. He
tells you I'm for separation and you're for
integration to keep us fighting with each
other. No, I'm not for separation and you're

rights struggle problem into the United Nations
and let the world see that Uncle Sam is guilty
of violating the human rights of 22 million
Afro-Americans....
[short audio gap...content uncertain]
[Uncle Sam...] and still has the audacity
or the nerve to stand up and represent himself
as the leader of the free world. Not only
is he a crook, he's a hypocrite. There he
is standing up in front of other people, Uncle
Sam, with the blood of your and mine mothers
and fathers on his hands, with the blood dripping
down his jaws like a bloody-jawed wolf, and
still got the nerve to point his finger at
other countries. You can't even get civil
rights legislation. And this man has got the
nerve to stand up and talk about South Africa,
or talk about Nazi Germany, or talk about
[unclear]. Nah, no more days like those.
So, I say in my conclusion the only way we're
going to solve it -- we gotta unite in unity
and harmony, and Black Nationalism is the
key. How we gonna overcome the tendency to
be at each other's throats that always exists
in our neighborhoods? And the reason this
tendency exists, the strategy of the white
man has always been divide and conquer. He
keeps us divided in order to conquer us. He
tells you I'm for separation and you're for
integration to keep us fighting with each
other. No, I'm not for separation and you're
not for integration. What you and I is for
is freedom. Only you think that integration
will get you freedom, I think separation will
get me freedom. We both got the same objective.
We just got different ways of getting at it.
So I...studied this man, Billy Graham, who
preaches White Nationalism. That's what he
preaches. I say that's what he preaches. The
whole church structure in this country is
White Nationalism. You go inside a white church
 -- that's what they preaching: White Nationalism.
They got Jesus white, Mary white, God white,
everybody white -- that's White Nationalism.
So what he does -- the way he -- the way he
 -- the way he circumvents the -- the jealousy
and envy that he ordinarily would incur among
the heads of the church, wherever he go into
an area where the church already is you going
into trouble, 'cause they got that thing 
-- what you call it -- syndicated, they got
a syndicate just like the Racketeers have.
I'm going to say what's on my mind 'cause
the churches are, the preachers already proved
to you that they got a syndicate.
And when you're out in the rackets, whenever
you're getting in another man's territory,
you know, they gang up on you. And that's
the same way with you -- you ran into the
you know, they gang up on you. And that's
the same way with you -- you ran into the
It's a government filibuster. Any kind of
activity that takes place on the floor of
the Congress or the Senate, that's the government.
Any kind of dilly-dallying, that's the government.
Any kind of pussy-footing, that's the government.
Any kind of act that's designed to delay or
deprive you and me right now of getting full
rights, that's the government that's responsible.
And any time you find the government involved
in a conspiracy to violate the citizenship
or the civil rights of a people, then you
are wasting your time going to that government
expecting redress. Instead, you have to take
that government to the World Court and accuse
it of genocide and all of the other crimes
that it is guilty of today.
So those of us whose political, and economic,
and social philosophy is Black Nationalism
have become involved in the civil rights struggle.
We have injected ourselves into the civil
rights struggle, and we intend to expand it
from the level of civil rights to the level
of human rights. As long as you're -- As long
as you're fighting on the level of civil rights,
you're under Uncle Sam's jurisdiction. You're
going to his court expecting him to correct
the problem. He created the problem. He's
the criminal. You don't take your case to
the criminal; you take your criminal to court.
When the government of South Africa began
to trample upon the human rights of the people
of South Africa, they were taken to the U.N.
When the government of Portugal began to trample
upon the -- the rights of our brothers and
sisters in Angola, it was taken before the
U.N. Why even the white man took the Hungarian
question to the U.N. And just this week Chief
Justice Goldberg was crying over 3 million
Jews in Russia about their human rights, charging
Russia with violating the U.N. charter because
of its mistreatment of the human rights of
Jews in Russia.
Now you tell me how can the plight of everybody
on this earth reach the halls of the United
Nations, and you have 22 million Afro-Americans
whose churches are being bombed, whose little
girls are being murdered, whose -- whose leaders
are being shot down in broad daylight. Now
you tell me why the leaders of this struggle
have never taken it before the United Nations.

But when you go to a church and you see the
pastor of that church with a philosophy and
a program that's designed to bring black people
together and elevate black people -- join
that church. Join that church. If you see
where the NAACP is preaching and practicing
that which is designed to make Black Nationalism
materialize -- join the NAACP. Join any kind
of organization -- civic, religious, fraternal,
political, or otherwise that's based on lifting
the black man up and making him master of

One more thing: I was on a program in Illinois
recently with Senator Paul Douglas, a so-called
liberal, so-called Democrat, so-called white
man, at... which time he told me that our
African brothers were not interested in us
in Africa. He said the Africans are not interested
in the American Negro. I knew he was lying,
but during the next two or three weeks it's
my intention and plan to make a tour of our
African homeland. And I hope that when I come
back, I'll be able to come back and let you
know how our African brothers and sisters
feel toward us. And I know before I go there
that they love us. We're one; we're the same;
the same man who has colonized them all these
years, colonized you and me too all these
years. And all we have to do now is wake up
and work in unity and harmony and the battle
will be over.
I want to thank the Freedom Now Party and
the [unclear]. I want to thank Milton and
Richard Henley for inviting me here this afternoon,
and also Reverend Cleage. And I want them
to know that anything that I can ever do,
at any time, to work with anybody in any kind
of program that is sincerely designed to eliminate
the political, the economic, and the social
evils that confront all of our people, in
Detroit and elsewhere, all they got to do
is give me a telephone call and I'll be on

church, he don't -- he doesn't try to start
a church. He just goes in preaching Christ.
And he says everybody who believe in Him,
you go wherever -- you go wherever you find
him. So this helps all the churches and so
since it helps all the churches they don't
fight him.
Well, we gonna do the same thing, only our
gospel is Black Nationalism. His gospel is
White Nationalism; our gospel is Black Nationalism.

Richard Henley for inviting me here this afternoon,
and also Reverend Cleage. And I want them
to know that anything that I can ever do,
at any time, to work with anybody in any kind
of program that is sincerely designed to eliminate
the political, the economic, and the social
evils that confront all of our people, in
Detroit and elsewhere, all they got to do
is give me a telephone call and I'll be on
the next jet right on into the city.
same thing. So how Billy Graham gets around
that, instead of going into somebody else's
territory, like he going to start up a new
church, he don't -- he doesn't try to start
a church. He just goes in preaching Christ.
And he says everybody who believe in Him,
you go wherever -- you go wherever you find
him. So this helps all the churches and so
since it helps all the churches they don't
fight him.
Well, we gonna do the same thing, only our
gospel is Black Nationalism. His gospel is
White Nationalism; our gospel is Black Nationalism.
And the gospel of Black Nationalism, as I
told you, means you should control your own
 -- the politics of your community, the economy
of your community, and all of the society
in which you live should be under your control.
And...once you...feel that this philosophy
will solve your problem, go join any church
where that's preached. Don't join a church
where White Nationalism is preached. Now you
can go to a negro church and be exposed to
White Nationalism, 'cause you are -- when
you walk in a negro church and a white Mary
and some white angels -- that Negro church
is preaching White Nationalism.
But when you go to a church and you see the
pastor of that church with a philosophy and
a program that's designed to bring black people
together and elevate black people -- join
that church. Join that church. If you see
where the NAACP is preaching and practicing
that which is designed to make Black Nationalism
materialize -- join the NAACP. Join any kind
of organization -- civic, religious, fraternal,
political, or otherwise that's based on lifting
the black man up and making him master of
his own community.
It'll be -- It'll be the -- the ballot or
it'll be the bullet. It'll be liberty or it'll
be death. And if you're not ready to pay that
price don't use the word freedom in your vocabulary.
One more thing: I was on a program in Illinois
recently with Senator Paul Douglas, a so-called
liberal, so-called Democrat, so-called white
man, at... which time he told me that our
African brothers were not interested in us
in Africa. He said the Africans are not interested
in the American Negro. I knew he was lying,
but during the next two or three weeks it's
my intention and plan to make a tour of our
African homeland. And I hope that when I come
back, I'll be able to come back and let you
know how our African brothers and sisters
feel toward us. And I know before I go there
that they love us. We're one; we're the same;
the same man who has colonized them all these
years, colonized you and me too all these
years. And all we have to do now is wake up
and work in unity and harmony and the battle
will be over.

man, at... which time he told me that our
African brothers were not interested in us
in Africa. He said the Africans are not interested
in the American Negro. I knew he was lying,
but during the next two or three weeks it's
my intention and plan to make a tour of our
African homeland. And I hope that when I come
back, I'll be able to come back and let you
know how our African brothers and sisters
feel toward us. And I know before I go there
that they love us. We're one; we're the same;
the same man who has colonized them all these
years, colonized you and me too all these
years. And all we have to do now is wake up
and work in unity and harmony and the battle
will be over.
I want to thank the Freedom Now Party and
the [unclear]. I want to thank Milton and
Richard Henley for inviting me here this afternoon,
and also Reverend Cleage. And I want them
to know that anything that I can ever do,
at any time, to work with anybody in any kind
of program that is sincerely designed to eliminate
the political, the economic, and the social
evils that confront all of our people, in
Detroit and elsewhere, all they got to do
is give me a telephone call and I'll be on
the next jet right on into the city.
same thing. So how Billy Graham gets around
that, instead of going into somebody else's
territory, like he going to start up a new
church, he don't -- he doesn't try to start
a church. He just goes in preaching Christ.
And he says everybody who believe in Him,
you go wherever -- you go wherever you find
him. So this helps all the churches and so
since it helps all the churches they don't
fight him.
Well, we gonna do the same thing, only our
gospel is Black Nationalism. His gospel is
White Nationalism; our gospel is Black Nationalism.
And the gospel of Black Nationalism, as I
told you, means you should control your own
 -- the politics of your community, the economy
of your community, and all of the society
in which you live should be under your control.
And...once you...feel that this philosophy
will solve your problem, go join any church
where that's preached. Don't join a church
where White Nationalism is preached. Now you
can go to a negro church and be exposed to
White Nationalism, 'cause you are -- when
you walk in a negro church and a white Mary
and some white angels -- that Negro church
is preaching White Nationalism.
But when you go to a church and you see the
pastor of that church with a philosophy and
a program that's designed to bring black people
together and elevate black people -- join
that church. Join that church. If you see
where the NAACP is preaching and practicing
that which is designed to make Black Nationalism
materialize -- join the NAACP. Join any kind
of organization -- civic, religious, fraternal,
political, or otherwise that's based on lifting
the black man up and making him master of
his own community.
It'll be -- It'll be the -- the ballot or
it'll be the bullet. It'll be liberty or it'll
be death. And if you're not ready to pay that
price don't use the word freedom in your vocabulary.

at any time, to work with anybody in any kind
of program that is sincerely designed to eliminate
the political, the economic, and the social
evils that confront all of our people, in
Detroit and elsewhere, all they got to do
is give me a telephone call and I'll be on
the next jet right on into the city.
feel toward us. And I know before I go there
that they love us. We're one; we're the same;
the same man who has colonized them all these
years, colonized you and me too all these
will be over.
I want to thank the Freedom Now Party and
the [unclear]. I want to thank Milton and
Richard Henley for inviting me here this afternoon,
and also Reverend Cleage. And I want them
my intention and plan to make a tour of our
African homeland. And I hope that when I come

territory, like he going to start up a new
church, he don't -- he doesn't try to start
a church. He just goes in preaching Christ.
And he says everybody who believe in Him,
you go wherever -- you go wherever you find
him. So this helps all the churches and so
since it helps all the churches they don't
fight him.
Well, we gonna do the same thing, only our
gospel is Black Nationalism. His gospel is
White Nationalism; our gospel is Black Nationalism.
And the gospel of Black Nationalism, as I
told you, means you should control your own
 -- the politics of your community, the economy
of your community, and all of the society
in which you live should be under your control.
And...once you...feel that this philosophy
will solve your problem, go join any church
where that's preached. Don't join a church
where White Nationalism is preached. Now you
can go to a negro church and be exposed to
White Nationalism, 'cause you are -- when
you walk in a negro church and a white Mary
and some white angels -- that Negro church
is preaching White Nationalism.
But when you go to a church and you see the
pastor of that church with a philosophy and
a program that's designed to bring black people
together and elevate black people -- join
that church. Join that church. If you see
where the NAACP is preaching and practicing
that which is designed to make Black Nationalism
materialize -- join the NAACP. Join any kind
of organization -- civic, religious, fraternal,
political, or otherwise that's based on lifting
the black man up and making him master of
his own community.
It'll be -- It'll be the -- the ballot or
it'll be the bullet. It'll be liberty or it'll
be death. And if you're not ready to pay that
price don't use the word freedom in your vocabulary.
One more thing: I was on a program in Illinois
recently with Senator Paul Douglas, a so-called
liberal, so-called Democrat, so-called white
man, at... which time he told me that our
African brothers were not interested in us
in Africa. He said the Africans are not interested
in the American Negro. I knew he was lying,
but during the next two or three weeks it's
my intention and plan to make a tour of our
African homeland. And I hope that when I come
back, I'll be able to come back and let you
know how our African brothers and sisters
feel toward us. And I know before I go there
that they love us. We're one; we're the same;
the same man who has colonized them all these
years, colonized you and me too all these
years. And all we have to do now is wake up

that, instead of going into somebody else's
territory, like he going to start up a new
church, he don't -- he doesn't try to start
a church. He just goes in preaching Christ.

you go wherever -- you go wherever you find
