Winning Democracy For The Negro Is Winning The War For Democracy

Make Wars Unprofitable And You Make Them Impossible.

In Every Truth, The Beneficiaries Of A System Cannot Be Expected To Destroy It.

Nothing Counts But Pressure, Pressure, More Pressure, And Still More Pressure Through Broad Organized Aggressive Mass Action.

We Want The Full Works Of Citizenship With No Reservations. We Will Accept Nothing Less . . . This Condition Of Freedom, Equality, And Democracy Is Not The Gift Of Gods. It Is The Task Of Men, Yes, Men, Brave Men, Honest Men, Determined Men.

Salvation For A Race, Nation Or Class Must Come From Within.

It's Easy To Get People's Attention, What Counts Is Getting Their Interest.

Freedom Is Never Given; It Is Won.

Salvation For A Race, Nation Or Class Must Come From Within. Freedom Is Never Granted; It Is Won. Justice Is Never Given; It Is Exacted.

Power Is The Flower Of Organization.

Those Who Deplore Our Militants, Who Exhort Patience In The Name Of A False Peace, Are In Fact Supporting Segregation And Exploitation. They Would Have Social Peace At The Expense Of Social And Racial Justice. They Are More Concerned With Easing Racial Tension Than Enforcing Racial Democracy.

Equality Is The Heart And Essence Of Democracy, Freedom, And Justice, Equality Of Opportunity In Industry, In Labor Unions, Schools And Colleges, Government, Politics, And Before The Law. There Must Be No Dual Standards Of Justice, No Dual Rights, Privileges, Duties, Or Responsibilities Of Citizenship. No Dual Forms Of Freedom.

A Community Is Democratic Only When The Humblest And Weakest Person Can Enjoy The Highest Civil, Economic, And Social Rights That The Biggest And Most Powerful Possess.

Rights In America

Justice Is Never Given; It Is Exacted And The Struggle Must Be Continuous For Freedom Is Never A Final Fact, But A Continuing Evolving Process To Higher And Higher Levels Of Human, Social, Economic, Political And Religious Relationship.

We Must Develop Huge Demonstrations, Because The World Is Used To Big Dramatic Affairs. They Think In Terms Of Hundreds Of Thousands And Millions And Billions... Billions Of Dollars Are Appropriated At The Twinkling Of An Eye. Nothing Little Counts.

At The Banquet Table Of Nature, There Are No Reserved Seats. You Get What You Can Take, And You Keep What You Can Hold. If You Can't Take Anything, You Won't Get Anything, And If You Can't Hold Anything, You Won't Keep Anything. And You Can't Take Anything Without Organization.
