RE: COUNTERORI. © ‘LON WEEK
he comes down into the brown colonies. And if he's white, he
comes down to places like Uptown Chicago, Oregon Hill in Richmond,
Virginia, Tremont in Cleveland, Ohio. Because at uptown you
got something going. You know, on the South side and West side
of Chicago are oppre-sed blacks, but did you know brothers and
sisters, on the North siJe are oppressed whites getting their ass
beat every day by honkey cops? Beaten, shot at, shot, robbed,
jailed. Half the jaits, most of the jails in this country have
two kinds of people in them. Blacks and hillbillies. You check
out Folson Pris:‘n and San Quentin. Check them out. Check out
what Johnny Cash says to them, why he goes there.
We say it's a class struggle. We say it's a class
struggle because no more is it only a racial struggle. As long
as we continue to say it is a race struggle, the man's got us.
He's got us, Renause that can work two ways. One way is that

screaming racism either, dig, it is because we're screaming and
shouting solidarity. We're for socialism and solidarity against
capitalism and racism.
And here we are all of us out here paying their taxes
to run our asses down and put us in jail. And we come down South
trying to deal with racism and them son~of-a-bitches want to put
us in jail. They want to put us in jail and they will put us in
jail. Because the Vanguard Party knows that the first wave of
revolution is wiped out, and when Brother LEE gets up to rap, he'll
tell you some things that are fact about what's happened in the
Black Panther Pa:ty.
I can tel] you some things that happened to the Young
Patriots since they become a pelitical organization, allied
themselves with the Black Panther Party and with the Young Lords,
