"I call on the dead, I call on the defeated, the starved, the sold, the tortured, the executed, the robbed. Minors who have choked on the black lung. Women bled to death of abortions men made illegal. Every black killed by police, national guards, mobs, and armies, live in us, give us your strength, give us your counsel, give us your rage to come at last into the light."
- Marge Piercy
"If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate, and sit down agitation, are men and women who want crops without plowing up the ground. It must be a struggle, because power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will."
- F. Douglas spoken by O. Davis
"We're a group of people who are committed at each other. We're committed to studying with each other, to arguing about what's right and what's wrong, about deciding as a whole what to do and then going forward and carrying it out. That's the only way we can find out whether or not what we've decided is right or wrong. And that's the contribution that we have to make and that the revolutionary movement as a whole has to make to the people in this country."
