Greetings of profound leve to the neople, to all cromruces-
tn-arms, to all comrades in concentration camps in fascist Amerikiain
an’ to:sil1 the children, This is Yolanca sneaking.
‘nen ve say revolution, [ve do not use the word loosely. Uy
revolution we mean the violent fight for freedom -- freedom vant
can be eained in no other wav tnat by fiehting. Feonle do neo2
fight because they enjoy it or because the’ relish the thcugnt of
their own death or the deaths of their beloved comrades. “hey
fight to survive, because they unterstand the violence of fasc‘sm;
anc that violence means genocidal death at the hands of dictators
who massed 50° nigs, armed with military weavons, fragmentary
rrenades and incendiary grenedes, to burn six veonle to deatn;
sietators who have imerisoned over 22,000 sisters and brothers
‘n the state of California alione; dictators who take jobs away
from those who are asking for, work? . dictators who take food fron
the mouths of those who are starving } dictators who take joy trom
the hearts of those who love ‘the people.

The military/industrial state of the ruling: class can only
survive through repression, ithese fascist dogs must destroy Srut
in the minds of the people to keen them pacified. They mict mee
reonle afraid so that they'll do nothing. They must make pecrle
feel isclsted from each other and powerless, Fascism | tries to do
all these things through the brutal violence of the militar: no-
lice force, the lurking big-brother presence of the FBI, Cla ans
their cemputer files, through | mecia propaganda
Fascism tries to tell us we are fools to resist, becauce in
the end we will be destroved. if we were only six reorle, they
would be correct, for they can cestroy the lives of six, or
nine, or even one hundred people. But the truth the pigs try se
desrarately te repress is one the peovle are coming to uncerstang
only too well. Peovle are ridding themselves of the bourgeois
Cesire to lead a long life, and instead wish to fight for a better,
more human life. Yes, repression breeds resistance,
“Ne must face the inevita sble truth that ‘repre é ‘sion “will grow
more intense as the power hunery nies see their arip slipping.
Whites in this country have historically hed a tendency to back
off when repression intensified, feeling they cculd escare tne
viscious tentacles. For this reason, Blisck, Brown, Asian and
Indian borothers ans sisters have not trusted “hites, feeling
that they wouls cesert the fight as it was just beginning in
orser te save their own skin. These sisters and orothers “ere
often proven correct, That [is why ve say anyone who loves frce-
dom must prove this love through action, not words,
So se are freedom ftshters, “Ye may be murdered, but wheth
ve live ar die, the dav is ¢lose at hand when the peonle wil:
Join torether in an army because the: wish to survive on thelr
ovm terms, to the peo-le will change the course of histor:
through their courare en detern ination,
