RE: COUNTEROh_¢N_.\TION WEEK
All power belongs to the people and when we say it we
mean it, and we put it into practice, Marxist-Leninist theory
into practice. And I'm sure there's going to be some professcr
here tonight to ask us what the Marxist-Leninist theory is, and I
guess we'll probably take him out and show him the people in the
pool hall, and people in the factories, and we'll show him the pro-~-
grams in the Black Panther Party and the Young Patriots and the
Young Lords, and then he's going to come back to his office and
he's going to buy him a pipe that's real bit and stuff it full of
hash, and he's going to sit there and grow his hair long, take

freak out. But when you come down off your high, you know where
you might find yourself because a person that tends to sleep
through a revolution wakes up dead. That's right, that's right.
So my white brothers and sisters, we got a hell of a
job ahead of us and in the last ten months, it has been a very
short time really, we found that ovt from being all over this
country and receiving pleas from white people who have never had
any hope, who have either been freaked out in one direction or
freaked out in another direction, all hiding under a sheet in
