2、agreed, that america has a very serious problem. not only does america have a very serious problem, but our people have a very serious problem. americas problem is us. were her problem. the only reason she has a problem is she doesnt want us here. and every time you look at yourself, be you black, b
3、rown, red, or yellow - a so-called negro - you represent a person who poses such a serious problem for america because youre not wanted. once you face this as a fact, then you can start plotting a course that will make you appear intelligent, instead of unintelligent. what you and i need to do is le
4、arn to forget our differences. when we come together, we dont come together as baptists or methodists. you dont catch hell cause youre a baptist, and you dont catch hell cause youre a methodist. you dont catch hell cause youre a methodist or baptist. you dont catch hell because youre a democrat or a
5、 republican. you dont catch hell because youre a mason or an elk. and you sure dont catch hell cause youre an american; cause if you was an american, you wouldnt catch no hell. you catch hell cause youre a black man. you catch hell, all of us catch hell, for the same reason. so we are all black peop
6、le, so-called negroes, second-class citizens, ex-slaves. you are nothing but a sic ex-slave. you dont like to be told that. but what else are you? you are ex-slaves. you didnt come here on the "mayflower." you came here on a slave ship - in chains, like a horse, or a cow, or a chicken. and

9、 bandung back in, i think, 1954, was the first unity meeting in centuries of black people. and once you study what happened at the bandung conference, and the results of the bandung conference, it actually serves as a model for the same procedure you and i can use to get our problems solved. at band
10、ung all the nations came together. their were dark nations from africa and asia. some of them were buddhists. some of them were muslim. some of them were christians. some of them were confucianists; some were atheists. despite their religious differences, they came together. some were communists; so
11、me were socialists; some were capitalists. despite their economic and political differences, they came together. all of them were black, brown, red, or yellow. the number-one thing that was not allowed to attend the bandung conference was the white man. he couldnt come. once they excluded the white
12、man, they found that they could get together. once they kept him out, everybody else fell right in and fell in line. this is the thing that you and i have to understand. and these people who came together didnt have nuclear weapons; they didnt have jet planes; they didnt have all of the heavy armame

14、ther african came from guinea and was being colonized by the french, and another came from angola and was being colonized by the portuguese. when they came to the bandung conference, they looked at the portuguese, and at the frenchman, and at the englishman, and at the other - dutchman - and learned
15、 or realized that the one thing that all of them had in common: they were all from europe, they were all europeans, blond, blue-eyed and white-skinned. they began to recognize who their enemy was. the same man that was colonizing our people in kenya was colonizing our people in the congo. the same one in the congo was colonizing our people in south africa, and in southern rhodesia, and in burma, and in india, and in afghanistan, and in pakistan. they realized all over the world where the dark man was being oppressed, he was being oppressed by the white man; where the dark man was being
