“Do you remember when we picketed the White House in 1965?”

What the homosexual wants, and here he is neither willing to compromise nor morally required to compromise – is acceptance of homosexuality as a way of life fully on a par with heterosexuality.

Putting a label [homosexual] on myself was a big step forward…once I said, ‘Yes, that’s me, that’s what I am,’ I was able to work with it.

Equality means more than passing laws. The struggle is really won in the hearts and minds of the community, where it really counts.

We must always embrace individual liberty and enforce the constitutional rights of all Americans-rich and poor, immigrant and native, black and white.

All of us have moments in our lives that test our courage. Taking children into a house with a white carpet is one of them.

Strike the words “white male” from all your constitutions, and then, with fair sailing, let us sink or swim, live or die, survive or perish together.

White folks are not going to come to see a bunch of guys with tattoos, with cornrows. I’m sorry, but anyone who thinks different, they’re stupid.

I think anybody who is racist is an idiot whether they are black or white.

Poor white people and poor black people just don’t know how much they have in common. Rich people don’t give a damn about either group.

Unfortunately, as I tell my white friends, we as black people, we’re never going to be successful not because of you white people but because of other black people.

This is why I hate white people. You guys try to turn everything into a racial issue.
