Fred Hampton, Black Panther Party deputy chairman, murdered by the FBI and Chicago Police in 1969:

They have black people and white poor people and red poor people
And Puerto Rican poor people and Latin American poor people
Poor people of all descents.
They had them caught up in their movements based on racism.

We don’t think you fight fire with fire.
We think you fight fire with water.
We gonna fight racism, not with racism
but we gonna fight it with solidarity
We said we not gonna fight capitalism with black capitalism,
but we’re going to fight it with Socialism.

We stood up and said we’re not going to fight reactionary pigs and reactionary state’s attorneys
like Hanrahan with any other reactions on our part.
We’re going to fight their reactions with all us people to get together
And have an international proletarian revolution.
