The Black Panther Party: For Self-Defense 

50th Anniversary 

“First of all, we say primarily that the priority of this struggle is class. That Marx, and Lenin, and Che Guevara, and Mao Tse-Tung, and anybody else that has ever said or knew or practiced anything about revolution, always said that revolution is a class struggle. It is one class, the oppressed, against the other class - the oppressor. And it’s got to be a universal fact. Those that don’t admit to that are those that don’t want to get involved in a revolution, because they know that as long as they’re dealing with a race thing, they’ll never be involved in a revolution. They can talk about numbers; they can hang you up in many, many ways, but as soon as you start talking about class, then you got to start talking about some guns. And that’s what the Party had to do.”

- Fred Hampton, Chicago chair of the Black Panther Party, 1968
