Ive been put in charge of Black History Month events at a public school. On of the things we are doing is a person+ quote announced in the mornings about historic Black people.

I want to create a list entirely of influential Black leftists and some quotes.

It still needs to be approved by the "moderate" priciple, so try and keep the people and quotes subtle enough that they can be mentioned in a school (yeah Ik, Im still gonna try and get Malcolm X in but i think that might get removed. )

Comrades! please list your favorite badass Black leftists and cool quotes by them , would actually help me get some leftist stuff (even just a tiny bit) into this school.

    Imperialism is a system of exploitation that occurs not only in the brutal form of those who come with guns to conquer territory. Imperialism often occurs in more subtle forms, a loan, food aid, blackmail . We are fighting this system that allows a handful of men on Earth to rule all of humanity.
