SPEAK THE TRUTH
YOU BECOME
A THREAT
TO THE SYSTEM.
With all these uprisings going on around the world, Egypt and Libya specifically, will it be a matter of time before it comes to America. We are suffering the same hardships that these countries are fighting for, unemployment, low paying jobs, rising prices on food, rent, transportation and the list just goes on. Will America be next? It might not happen today, tomorrow or even this year for that matter. But if the current trend continues, sooner or later we too will have to take to the streets for a real change to come.
The quote is from Emory Douglas, the graphic designer who did all the art for the Black Panther movement in the 70's. Many of the problems they were trying too overcome still exist today, and all the people who spoke out about the issues of that period, are either dead or in jail.
