Malcolm X:
You don't have to come here every day begging these folks for a job. Why, You can wash their clothes for 'em. You can scrub their floors. You can rock their little brats to sleep for the rest of your life. You'll still end up poor and without anything. And yet you're out here on the auction block. They're examining you like you're a - a chicken or a horse or a slave. You see this here? This is who you are. Beautiful. Your beautiful black selves - with pride and dignity
