REs COUNTERORTENTATION WEFK
Now we were hoping thst when we got here, we heard
you had 160 black students here. But I see that the Negro
students are outside and the black students are here. And
the honkeys are cutside and the hillbillies are here and don't
even really know that they are hillbillies. Cppressed white
people are here. They want t- find out what's going on. But
it's very, very herd to talk to a college audience especially when
you don't have that, you're not college oriented yourself. You
have to have a certain kind of rhetcric that you must talk. You
know, you must. use, relate to, to college students, you knew.
And like I said, last night coming from Richmond, that it's kind
ef hard to kr ing rhetoric and rarity and bring them tagether
for college students, Jack. Because they are so programmed
in a way that when truth hits them, you have to open a book up for
them, you know, Yeu hive to take them and see it, and something
like that, and when in fact they do see it they don't believe it.
Like most of you den't believe the film,
For the pigs in the audience, my name is BOBBY LEE, and
you know me, and fer those of you that don't know me, I'm field
secretary for the Black Panther Party, Chicago Chapter. And I
would like to say something, that. I called Chicago a couple of days
ago and I talked with FRED HAMPICN and FRED told me that BOBBY RUSH
was sentenced te six months in Vandania (phonetic). There's a
prison there. And when we started out together in Chicago, the
party, there were ten cf us, new there is only three cf us.
And I'm the only one free to leave and travel and this is why
this trip is so urgent tc us. Not to juice you for no bread, not
to‘recruit no Fanthers, just 49 purely try to build some communi-
cations. Te talk about the national conspiracy to destroy the
Black Panthers.
And it is a fact, one Fanther, ‘UGLE brothers, that's
dead. And it is fact, there are 323 Pantners in jail, and it is
a fact you have a let cf brothers who left their wives and their
children and their homes ::.d gone to Cuba and Africa.
