The Key To Revolution...

Is...ORGANIZATION

Something the black community OBVIOUSLY lacks. The key to the success of the B.P.P was organization. The ability to open various chapters..to hold community events, to expand and grow and keep its sense of order and direction is what made them so successful.

That's what we revolutionaries need today, organization. There are many organizations out there..but we need 1, or fewer, a few large ones instead of a bunch of small ones. Yes we need to start small, but we need that concept there. The key that keeps those pigs on black people is their organization. So when you are doing your work as a revolutionary, and you are preaching or rallying or even organizing, make sure organization is a part of your plan. Its often overlooked..as simple as it seems..

Bless.

You can't just hope that ONE can do the job of many......

You need different groups for different departments of the struggle. One goal IS IMPORTANT WHICH IS FREEDOM but one group can never do the whole job different views won't do it. The BPP for example was never the only group to get a job done, there were other groups AS WELL as individuals putting in work SAME AS TODAY.

If the goal is right and we get there the method is not always the most important part.

Organization is the key to any Revolution or just war for that matter. But almost if not more important than organization is the WILL TO GO OUT AND FIGHT.

I believe that communication and unity amongst all the organizations is key. To many times we might not always agree or be on the same page, therefore causing certain friction amongst each other.

Exactly my point....

We all want to get there, we just have to understand that we can only get there together

Okay... now that the three of you have "talked the talk" -- are you ready to walk the walk??

That is, are you prepared and willing to translate your nice-sounding words into real world action?

It's easy to sit at our keyboards spouting "revolution" but it's a whole 'nother thing to actually do the meaningful organizing y'all are only discussing.

Let's move beyond flapping our lips and exercising our fingertips...

Ok homie.......You talking big yourself about people "flapping their lips" and all WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!

If you are busy asking what other people are doing obviously your just waiting for some one to show you the way........Before you think to start asking question SHOW WHAT YOU KNOW!!!!

Don't even test what I'm doing because I handle more than I need to, and on top of it all I have know reason to tell you what I'm doing.........speak what you know before what you think.

Another key to Revolution is mental liberation. We cannot have weak-*** blacks who think that we should make peace with YT in the revolution. Those who believe in that bullshit need to wake the **** up and realize that there is no room for weakness. If you got the mind of a slave,then you're gonna think like one.We need revolutionary minds if we're gonna overthrow the people that continue to oppress and corrupt us!

I like your direct way of expressing yourself, but My Lady do you think it's really
necessary to overthrow the people the way I think you mean it, because I don't see that happening without the shedingd of innocent blood, in this day and age.
