JOIN THE MOVEMENT!
“Be proud of your heritage. Don’t let anyone take that away from you. Know who you are. Know where you came from. Learn the road your fore-parents came, so you don’t go through the same experience. Free yourself. You may not have chains around your legs, but you may have chains around your mind. Break loose from the chains. Find your true identity.”
- Malcolm X
