Our Common Ground With Janice Graham

"The Urgency of Thinking Black" A Conversation with Dr. Tommy J. Curry “The Negro, in the universities and colleges of Europe and America, has to do his thinking and his reading in…the white man’s language…Our environment makes us think white, and some of us think white so persistently that we haven’t the time to think Black. I urge upon you…to help, with voice and pen, to hasten the coming of the morning when Negroes all over this broad land will wake up to the importance of thinking Black.  John Edward Bruce—“The Importance of Thinking Black”—1917 • WE SUFFER POLICE MURDER, POLITICAL STRANGULATION AND THE REIGN OF WHITE CONTROL • WE LIVE IN A POLICE STATE. • THE CONFEDERACY IS RISING ACROSS THE LAND. • THE WAR WAGING AGAINST POOR PEOPLE. OUR reconstruction and redemption as a people will only come when we start THINKING BLACK.
