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.)

William STILL (1821 – 1902)

Often called "The Father of the Underground Railroad," Still helped as many as 60 slaves a month escape to freedom, interviewing each person and keeping careful records, including a brief biography and the destination of each person, along with any alias that they adopted, though he kept his records carefully hidden. He is one of the many who helped slaves escape from the United States. During one interview of an escapee, he discovered that the man, Peter Still, was his own brother. They had been separated since childhood, and his brother knew little about the rest of his family.
