"We're going to fight their reactions with all of us people getting together and having an international proletariat revolution. And that's saying all power to the people. That's saying that no matter what color you are, you go into two classes. And that's saying there's a class over here, and there's a class over there. And the reason that this class over here has never did anything to get this class off its back, is because this is lower, this is upper, this is the oppressed, this is the oppressor, this is the exploited, this is the exploiter. And these people in this class have divided themselves, and said, 'I'm black and I hate white people. I'm white and I hate black people. I'm Latin American and I hate hillbillies. I'm a hillbilly, I hate indians'. So we fighting amongst each other...
