The only times an Afro-American who was assaulted got away has been when he had a gun and used it in self-defense.
The way to right wrongs is to turn the light of truth upon them.
One had better die fighting against injustice than die like a dog or a rat in a trap.
The lesson this teaches and which every Afro-American should ponder well, is that a Winchester rifle should have a place of honor in every black home, and it should be used for that protection which the law refuses to give. When the white man who is always the aggressor knows he runs as great a risk of biting the dust every time his Afro-American victim does, he will have greater respect for Afro-American life.
