slaves."
Mama Harriet Tubman
"The events which transpired five thousand years ago; Five years ago or five minutes ago, have
determined what will happen five minutes from now; five years From now or five thousand years from now. All history is a current
event."
Dr. John Henrik Clarke
"STAY FOCUS"
Queen Mother Moore
"A Winchester Rifle should have a place
of honor in every
[African-American] home."
Ida B. Wells-Barnett
"No person is your friend who demands your
silence, or denies your right to grow."
Alice Walker
"First, my people must be taught the knowledge of self. Then
and only then will they be able to understand others and that which surrounds them. Anyone who does not have a knowledge of
self is considered a victim of either amnesia or unconsciousness and is not very competent. The lack of knowledge of self
is a prevailing condition among my people here in America. Gaining the knowledge of self makes us unite into a great unity.
Knowledge of self makes you take on the great virtue of learning."
Honorable Elijah Muhammad
"Power concedes nothing
without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found
out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted
with either words or blow, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."
Frederick Douglass
"African-Americans have not yet learn that no other people have continued worshipping another's
God, especially their slave master's god or gods and freed themselves from cultural and physical genocide. Why should Africans
and African-Americans be the only exception to this historic reality?"
Dr. Ben
"Freedom is to come to the Negro,
not as a bequest, but as a conquest."
Carter G. Woodson
"Judaism, Christianity & Islam are innovations on
fragments from the periphery of the African cultural and spiritual system."
Professor James Small
"Whoever controls the images, controls your self-esteem, self-respect
and self-development. Whoever controls the history, controls the vision."
Dr. Leonard Jeffries
"The thing to do
is to get organized; keep separated and you will be exploited, you will be robbed, you will be killed. Get organized and you
will compel the world to respect you."
Marcus Garvey
"Remain separated and you will suffer; Together we are invincible
!"
Haywood Barber, Sr.
"A man who won't die for something is not fit to live."
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Those who seek temporary security rather than basic liberty deserve
neither...
Queen Mother Moore
"Sure there are a few good whites just as much as there are a few bad Blacks. However what
we are concerned here with is group attitudes and group politics. The exception does not make a lie or the rule - it merely
substantiates it."
Steve Biko
"I started with this idea in my head, "there's two things I've got a right to....death
or liberty?."
Mama Harriet Tubman
"You're not an African because you're born in Africa. You're an African because
Africa is born in you. It's in your genes.... your DNA....your entire biological make up. Whether you like it or not, that's
the way it is. However, if you were to embrace this truth with open arms....my, my, my....what a wonderful thing."
Marimba
Ani
"To illuminate our real African History, to clarify our African Present, to brilliantly project our African Future."

Dr. Leonard Jeffries

Unknown

the issues."

from your mind is their colonization of the image of God."
Dr. Frances Cress-Welsing
"Peace if possible, War if
necessary."
Dr. Khallid A. Muhammad
"My bones are tired. Not tired of struggling, but tired of oppression."
Queen Mother Moore
"Education
is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today."
Malcolm X
"Powerful
people never educate powerless people in what they need that they can use to take the power away from powerful people; it's
too much to expect. If I was in power, I would not educate people in how to take my powers away."
Dr. John Henrik Clarke
"I never ran my train off the track. And I never lost a passenger"
Mama Harriet Tubman
"Lifting as we
climb"
National Association of Colored Women

purpose, one alone, everything else is a waste of time......that is to train the student to be a proper handler of power."
Dr. John Henrik Clarke

together with his brothers around the cause of their operation - the blackness of their skin - and to operate as a group in
order to rid themselves of the shackles that bind them to perpetual servitude."
Steve Biko
"One is fully conscious

knowledge to master, understand and become able to create institutions that allow him or her to live in harmony with the rest
of nature and the universe."
Professor James Small
"Just because a cat has kittens in the oven, that doesn't make
them biscuits."
Malcolm X
"God created black people and black people created style."
George C. Wolfe
"For the
'human race' to get along sounds like a wonderful thing......yet and still, Africans as a people globally must first
get along. Then and only then can we realistically get along truthfully with any other race. Anything other than that......you're
just fooling yourself."
Unknown
"The Lord who told me to take care of my people meant me to do it just as long
as I live, and so I did what he told me."
Mama Harriet Tubman
"Every form of true education trains the student
in self-reliance"
Dr. John Henrik Clarke

"When you control a man's thinking you do not have to worry about his actions. You do not have
to tell him not to stand here or go yonder. He will find his 'proper place' and will stay in it. You do not need to send him
to the back door. He will go without being told. In fact, if there is no back door, he will cut one for his special benefit.
His education makes it necessary"
Carter G. Woodson
"I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is
trying to please everybody."
Bill Cosby
"African people need to stop shouting 'nationtime' until they are clear
about the responsibilities of running a nation."
Dr. John Henrik Clarke
"No people to whom liberty is given can
hold it as firmly and wear it as grandly as those who wrench their liberty from the iron hand of the tyrant."
Frederick
Douglass
"Of all our studies, history is best qualified to reward our research."
Malcolm X
"Look at you....chasing
your tail....running after the dollar bill as if it's going to solve your problems personally or collectively as a people.
'Black America' is in the top 10 list of richest nations in the world. Still....look at us. Disrespected, mistreated and down
trodden to say the least. Why? Because we don't study our past and present to create a better future with our resources. We
have to study our history....It's mandatory."
Lloyd "Amen-Ra" Spivey
"History is a clock people use to tell their historical culture and political time of the day.
It's a compass that people use to find themselves on the map of human geography. The history tells them where they have been,
where they are and what they are. But most importantly history tells a people where they still must go and what they still
must be"
Dr. John Henrik Clarke
The economic philosophy of black nationalism only means that our people need to
be re-educated into the importance of controlling the economy of the community in which we live, which means that we won't
have to constantly be involved in picketing and boycotting other people in other communities in order to get jobs
Malcolm
X
"Black Consciousness therefore takes cognizance of the deliberateness of God's plan in creating Black people black."
Steve Biko
"When you deal with the past, you're dealing with history, you're dealing actually with the origin
of a thing. When you know the origin, you know the cause It's impossible for you and me to have a balanced mind in this society
without going into the past, because in this particular society, as we function and fit into it right now, we're such an underdog,
we're trampled upon, we're looked upon as almost nothing. Now if we don't go into the past and find out how we got this way,
we will think that we were always this way. And if you think that you were always in the condition that you're in right now,
it's impossible for you to have too much confidence in yourself, you become worthless, almost nothing. But when you go back
into the past and find out where you once were, then you will know that you once had attained a higher level, had made great
achievements, contributions to society, civilization, science, and so forth. And you know that if you once did it you can
do it again; you automatically get the incentive, the inspiration and the energy necessary to duplicate what our forefathers
did."
Malcolm X
"Our purpose in life is to leave a legacy for our children and our children's children.
For this reason, we must correct history that at present denies our humanity and self-respect."
Queen Mother Moore
"Now consciousness, what is consciousness? Consciousness is being aware of one's surroundings, recognizing
the existence, truth or fact of something; being aware of the very moment, the very instant that you are in; being aware of
how you affect the human social, political, and natural ecology you are a part of and how it affects you. Consciousness is
being informed and instructed through your groups peculiar culture on the effects of the varied ecologies on your immediate
and distant ancestors, and to be aware of their interpretation of that experience."
Professor James Small
"Billions
of dollars a year is pumped into the propaganda machine to keep black people ignorant of the truth about their history and
condition."
Unknown
"The longer I live and the more I study the question, the more I am convinced that it is not
so much the problem of what you will do with Negro, as what the Negro will do with you and your 'civilization'."
Booker
T. Washington
"If you have achieved any level of success, then pour it into someone else. Success is not success without
a successor."
T. D. Jakes
"I was afraid because I was ignorant."
Tawana Brawley
"All of us may not
live to see the higher accomplishments of an African empire, so strong and powerful as to compel the respect of mankind, but
we in our lifetime can so work and act as to make the dream a possibility within another generation."
Marcus Garvey
"Love
of self comes first. The one who loves everybody is the one who does not love anyone."
Honorable Elijah Muhammad

RESPECTS POWER."
