We’re going to fight racism not with racism, but we’re going to fight with solidarity. We say we’re not going to fight capitalism with black capitalism, but we’re going to fight it with socialism.

More quotes by Fred Hampton

Nothing’s more important than stopping fascism, because fascism will stop us all.

I don’t want myself on your mind, if you’re not gonna work for the people.

Excerpt from The Murder of Fred Hampton (1971)

But when I leave, you’ll remember I said, with the last words on my lips, that I am a revolutionary.

Why don’t you live for the people. Why don’t you struggle for the people. Why don’t you die for the people.

Excerpt from The Murder of Fred Hampton (1971)

You have to understand that people have to pay the price for peace. If you dare to struggle, you dare to win. If you dare not to struggle then god damn it, you don’t deserve to win. Let me say peace to you, if you’re willing to fight for it.
