"We weren't brought here to be citizens in white America. The intention was for us to work for them for free - and like it. They mated us up, the more the merrier. The big black slave was called the buck. 'This nigger slave can breed 15 babies a month!' And as soon as the baby is born, it was separated from the mother. And that was the making of your 'Negro'. He was a mental slave. And that's the people we still have in America today. Given all that, how can the black man in America ever expect to be treated fairly? When you put your whole trust and whole future in another people, then you're putting yourself in a position to be disappointed and deceived. You cannot disappoint me. You cannot deceive me if I'm not looking for anything from you."
