The death of Che Guevara places a responsibility on all revolutionaries of the World to redouble their decision to fight on to the final defeat of Imperialism. That is why in essence Che Guevara is not dead, his ideas are with us.
STOKELY CARMICHAELThe death of Che Guevara places a responsibility on all revolutionaries of the World to redouble their decision to fight on to the final defeat of Imperialism. That is why in essence Che Guevara is not dead, his ideas are with us.
STOKELY CARMICHAELOne does not fight to influence change and then leave the change to someone else to bring about.
STOKELY CARMICHAELNo man can given anybody his freedom.
STOKELY CARMICHAELWe were aware of the fact that death walks hand in hand with struggle.
STOKELY CARMICHAELThere is a higher law than the law of government. That’s the law of conscience.
STOKELY CARMICHAELI maintain that every civil rights bill in this country was passed for white people, not for black people.
STOKELY CARMICHAELSo that the failures to pass a civil rights bill isn’t because of Black Power, isn’t because of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee; it’s not because of the rebellions that are occurring in the major cities.

STOKELY CARMICHAELThere has been only a civil rights movement, whose tone of voice was adapted to an audience of liberal whites.
STOKELY CARMICHAELSeems to me that the institutions that function in this country are clearly racist, and that they’re built upon racism.

STOKELY CARMICHAELThe time for running has come to an end. You tell them white folk in Mississippi that all the scared niggers are dead!
STOKELY CARMICHAELThe secret of life is to have no fear; it’s the only way to function.
STOKELY CARMICHAELNow, then, in order to understand white supremacy we must dismiss the fallacious notion that white people can give anybody their freedom.
STOKELY CARMICHAELWe had no more courage than Harriet Tubman or Marcus Garvey had in their times. We just had a more vulnerable enemy.
