Ebook: 1967 High Tide of Black Resistance

The year 1967 marked a historic milestone in the
struggle for the liberation of black people in the United
States and the year that revolutionaries throughout the
world began to understand more fully the impact of the
black movement. Our liberation will only come when
there is final destruction of this mad octopus-the capi-
talistic system of the United States with all its life-suck-
ing tentacles of exploitation and racism that chcke the
people of Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
To work, to fight, and to die for the liberation of
our people in the United States means, therefore, to
work for the liberation of all oppressed people around
the world. Liberation movements in many parts of the
world are now aware that, when they begin to fight
colonialism, it becomes imperative that we in this
country try to neutralize the possibilities of full-scale
United States intervention as occurred in Santa Domin-
go, as is occurring in Vietnam, and as may occur in
Haiti, Venezuela, South Africa or wherever.
