Text Quotes
I am principled against selling negroes, as you would do cattle at a market  (Negroes Quotes) The goal of Dr. Martin Luther King is to give Negroes a chance to sit in a segregated restaurant beside the same white man who had brutalized them for 400 years.  (Negroes Quotes) Somebody has been cashing checks, and they’ve been bouncing back on us. And these people, the poor class of Negroes and the poor class of white people, they’re getting tired of it.  (Negroes Quotes) The large majority of the Negroes who have put on the finishing touches of our best colleges are all but worthless in the development of their people.  (Negroes Quotes) A few years ago no hotel or restaurant in Boston refused Negro guests; now several hotels, restaurants, and especially confectionary stores, will not serve Negroes, even the best of them.  (Negroes Quotes) I worked at an all-black swimming pool in the east side of Wilmington, I was involved in what the Negroes, I mean, blacks were thinking, what they were feeling.  (Negroes Quotes) I often wonder whether Negroes like myself who are pretty well known help out at all in breaking down barriers.  (Negroes Quotes) Americans, too many of them, take themselves too seriously. You’re going to get rapped - by the viewers, by the sponsors and by the network brass - if you joke about doctors, lawyers, dentists, scientists, bus drivers, I don’t care who. You can’t make a joke about Catholics, Negroes, Jews, Italians, politicians, dogs or cats. In fact, politicians, dogs and cats are the most sacred institutions in America.  (Negroes Quotes) I have seen periods of progress followed by reaction. I have seen the hopes and aspirations of Negroes rise during World War II, only to be smashed during the Eisenhower years. I am seeing the victories of the Kennedy and Johnson Administrations destroyed by Richard Nixon.  (Negroes Quotes) Among Negroes it is a bad omen when someone knocks on the door of a house where a person has died  (Negroes Quotes) In a word, if any kind of slavery can be vindicated by the Holy Scriptures, we are already sure our making and holding the Negroes our slaves, as we do, cannot be vindicated by any thing we can find there, but is condemned by the whole of divine revelation.  (Negroes Quotes) There have been so few decent films involving Negroes that right away everybody expects every film to do everything. But when you make a flick, there are maybe two things you’re trying to put into that flick. You can put the other things in another time.  (Negroes Quotes) Now the goal of Dr. Martin Luther King is to give Negroes a chance to sit in a segregated restaurant beside the same white man who has brutalized them for four hundred years.  (Negroes Quotes) I was not addicted to stealing in my youth, nor have ever been; yet such was the confidence of the Negroes in the neighborhood, even at this early period of my life, in my superior judgment, that they would often carry me with them when they were going on any roguery, to plan for them.  (Negroes Quotes) Good education, housing and jobs are imperatives for the Negroes, and I shall support them in their fight to win these objectives, but I shall tell the Negroes that while these are necessary, they cannot solve the main Negro problem.  (Negroes Quotes) Because The Honorable Elijah Muhammad makes black people brave enough, men enough to defend ourselves no matter what the odds are, the white man runs around here with a doctrine that Mr. Muhammad is advocating the violence when he is actually telling Negroes to defend themselves against violent people.  (Negroes Quotes) It is only the Negro leadership, the bourgeois, hand-picked, handful of Negroes who think that they’re going to get some kind of respect, recognition, or protection from the Government.  (Negroes Quotes) The Negroes have little invention, but strong powers of imitation, so that they readily acquire mechanic arts. They have a great talent for music, and all their external senses are remarkably acute.  (Negroes Quotes) And all Negroes at some period of their lives there is that yearning for a sense of group unity that is the yearning of men for a flag: for a unity that cannot be compromised, that cannot be bought; that is conscious of itself, of its strength, that is militant.  (Negroes Quotes) Why must I run against a Negro? We have had enough of Negroes running against and fighting with each other. The better bet is that we would put a Muslim candidate in the field against a devil, somebody who is against all we stand for.  (Negroes Quotes) A major of colored troops is here with his party capturing negroes, with or without their consent... They are being conscripted  (Negroes Quotes) Subscribe to our noble society for providing the infant negroes in the West Indies with flannel waistcoats and moral pocket handkerchiefs  (Negroes Quotes) It would be against all nature for all the Negroes to be either at the bottom, top, or in between. We will go where the internal drive carries us like everybody else. It is up to the individual  (Negroes Quotes) What I did not yet know so intensely was the hatred of the white American for the black, a hatred so deep that I wonder if every white man in this country, when he plants a tree, doesn't see negroes hanging from it's branches  (Negroes Quotes) Our pathway is straight to the ballot box, with no variableness nor shadow of turning... We demand in the reconstruction suffrage for all the citizens of the republic. I would not talk of negroes or women, but of citizens  (Negroes Quotes) Negroes are human beings with exactly the same faults and virtues as members of the other races  (Negroes Quotes) Even if my mother had no qualms of conscience concerning ownership of negroes, her sense of duty carried her far beyond the mere supplying of their physical needs, or requiring that they render faithful service  (Negroes Quotes) I think Muslims have become the new Negroes in America. They are being mistreated at airports, by the Immigration - everywhere. Islam is a religion of peace. They are wrong  (Negroes Quotes) A few years ago no hotel or restaurant in Boston refused Negro guests; now several hotels, restaurants, and especially confectionary stores, will not serve Negroes, even the best of them  (Negroes Quotes) Negroes who have been so long inconvenienced and denied opportunities for development are naturally afraid of anything that sounds like discrimination  (Negroes Quotes)
