Muhammad ALI (1942-)


Quotes about the Vietnam war:


I ain't got no quarrel with the Vietcong. No Vietcong ever
called me Nigger.
(HAAS, Jeffrey [2009]. The Assassination of Fred Hampton: How the FBI and the Chicago Police Murdered a Black Panther. LAWRENCE HILL BOOKS. p. 27. ISBN 1-556-52765-9.)


No, I am not going 10,000 miles to help murder kill and burn
other people to simply help continue the domination of white slavemasters
over dark people the world over.
(African-American involvement in the Vietnam war |date=1967 |accessdate=2010-05-25.)


Why should they ask me to put on a uniform and go ten thousand
miles from home and drop bombs and bullets on brown people in Vietnam
while so-called Negro people in Louisville are treated like dogs and
denied simple human rights?
(HAAS, Jeffrey [2009]. The Assassination of Fred Hampton: How the FBI and the Chicago Police Murdered a Black Panther. LAWRENCE HILL BOOKS. p. 27. ISBN 1-556-52765-9.)
