In the name of the indomitable human spirit,

To the servant of the People, raging on with perseverance,

To those who make revolutionary science their adherence,

The political educator who enlightens those who’re nearest,

To the artists whose illustrations speak the clearest,

To our brightest minds and revolutionary theorists,

Those whose words flow like an everlasting stream,

“We are our own liberators” – the words of Jalil A. Muntaqim.

It is as it may seem, the masses cause the social current to lean;

Lean to the left or to the right,

To sway public opinion, we must fight.

Fight: like the Attica Brothers who took destiny into their own hands,

Like the BPP who taught us to fight the system not the “white man,”

All I’m saying is that under pressure even Black can crack.
