Change is coming, and change is coming in a way that it should have happened a long time ago. We are going into an era where the world will be changed because there will be more people with more to say.

With social media people can see the whole truth and not just a one-sided view. The technology which we are now blessed to have will play a big a part.

All I did was stand there with a fist in the air, It was a cry for freedom. And now people are beginning to throw a right fist up and throw it up for different reasons, but now they have the freedom to do it.

I would be disappointed if I see something and think that someone else told them to do it, It has to come from their heart to do it for the people.

A fist is a fist. It resonates throughout the world. It means power, pride and faith. It was my cry for freedom in 1968.

My part is never over until I'm over.
