+ ‘ , PE. BLACK PA THER PARTY Hy 5 : | "SO we said to Hii tsi you krew this. We put BRUCE (plonetie) and RICK (phonetic) in frait of you. We had doctors keg yu to examine him and you ignored them because he was a black man, he was a Panther. So we're saying toMrt#gh that what was done to LEE BARRY was done to us, And when tne shit is defined, we're going to take your mother-fucker head. "I don't think that Mutagh, I don't th recognizes the extent that black people will go to acquire their liberation and their freedom. We wrote him a document trying to tell him why we could not condone the procedures in this court and the document was approximately thirty pages long. We wrote nim this document. We outlined the way, how the courts had distertedly upheld the racism that was afflicted on black people, had made and legalized the laws of the land to the extent that black people were net human and were animals. The laws of this land said that and we don‘t believe that we can get a fair trial in any court because it has as its guidelines the standards and laws of the racist ruling class. And so we can't get a fair trial. The only place we can get a fair trial is in Harlem with the pecple that come off the block, the mothers and fathers whe are on welfare, the brothers and sisters who slave for a God damn $35 a week. The pecple who are maids downtown on Fast 82nd Street. That's where Our jury has got to come from because that's where we're from. "So we say that unless that happens, that black people will not acquire any justice until we start to dig what we have to do. We start to dig what they’re trying to do in New Haven t© BopBy SEALE and the Connecticut Nine. We start to see this is the most blatant and overt attempt to exterminate any leadership, any revolutionary leadership that hlack pecple have. It is an overt and blatant attempt to show the black people that you'll either remain a- nigger or you'll die like BOBBY SEALE. Pa tne ibase titan sei Ree "So 1 put the question before you here. W..11 you remain a nigger or would you pick up the gun and rather die like BOBBY SEALE would die for your ass? That's what I want to know. aes!
