When that grafted, blue-eyed devil locked us in chains, one hundred million of us, broke up our families, tortured us, cut us off from our language, our religion, our history. Let me tell you about black history. We are the original man. The first men on earth were black. They ruled. And there wasn't a white face anywhere. But they teach us that we lived in caves and swung from trees. That's a lie! Black men never did that. We were a race of *kings* when the white man crawled on all fours over the hills in Europe. Do they know who they are? Do you know where you came from?
