The control of the system-of justice in the black community becomes important. I'm getting tired of black people like a cat wants to fight his wife and they fight. Ard white folks come and holler, y'all can't do that and we got to be down there and let white folks decide for us our whole system of justice in the black community. So that I think that we have to seek our power to control our system of justice, ovr economics, so that we can, so that we can definitely change number one, the philosophy of these organi-~ zations; number two the priorities of these organizations; number three the methodology of these organizations.

We ain't like asking y‘all can we do this. We're getting ready to do this. Now you see that's the way to move because when you get ready to do it, then you gotto do it, and when you get ready to do it and do it, then you got to deal with what's going to happen when. you do it. And that's what we got to be about. We can't be hung up on "should we go this way," or “should we go that way," “should we carry this,” "should we carry that," "should we hip this and hip that.” We just got to decide that this is whit w: want and 31
