“You can’t hate the roots of the tree without ending up hating the tree. You can’t hate your origin without ending up hating yourself. You can’t hate the land, your motherland, the place that you come from, and we can’t hate Africa without ending up hating ourselves. The Black man in the Western Hemisphere – North America, Central America, South America, and in the Caribbean – is the best example of how one can be made, skillfully, to hate himself that you can find anywhere on this earth.”
