The Wealth Of The Country

The Basic Tenet Of Black Consciousness Is That The Black Man Must Reject All Value Systems That Seek To Make Him A Foreigner In The Country Of His Birth And Reduce His Basic Human Dignity.

Apartheid - Both Petty And Grand - Is Obviously Evil. Nothing Can Justify The Arrogant Assumption That A Clique Of Foreigners Has The Right To Decide On The Lives Of A Majority.

The Power Of A Movement Lies In The Fact That It Can Indeed Change The Habits Of People. This Change Is Not The Result Of Force But Of Dedication, Of Moral Persuasion.

The Blacks Are Tired Of Standing At The Touchlines To Witness A Game That They Should Be Playing. They Want To Do Things For Themselves And All By Themselves.

Black Consciousness Is In Essence The Realization By The Black Man Of The Need To Rally Together With His Brothers Around The Cause Of Their Oppression.
