Chairman Fred Jr. on "Memorial Day"

We remember the Men and Women that fight and fought in our interests.  Those that have been snatched up, shot up, and locked up. Those that were sent to the graveyards and had never gave up. those that went against the grain and those that were forced to give birth while being held in chains.  To those that clinched their fist, those that resisted, and those that didn't take no shit.  For the mothafuckahs that this government has murdered, whether it be via the Deathrows, COINTELPROS, and the ways in which words can't even explain.  And only God knows. We remember the Mumias, MOVE9's and Shaka Sankofas. The Reverend Nats', Gabriel Prossers and rest of those that dared to fight Black. The Deacons for Defense, Malcolm X's, Minister Huey P. and the rest of them Black Cats that strapped up and were willing to shoot back. I/We commit to never forget the Marcus Garveys and the rest of the Greats. The Fannie Lou Hamers, Ella Bakers, as well as to the Akua Njjeris and those that are still her today. Today and everyday we salute our Souljahs and Souljarettes and state that we shall never forget.


In the same breath, no we will never forget what you and your Soldiers do and have done. Your Army, Air Force, Navy and Marines. Your Yankees and Confederates. Your Blue Coats as well as the Reds. Your plundering plantations, your sharecropping and slavery, and segregation. The bodies that your armys butchered in Botswana to the role that your Ruling class ass played in Rwanda. Your General Pattons and your School of Assassins. Your holding of Political Prisoners, your beatings and tortures and small food rations. Your economic greed, throughout Africa and the Americas your vicious deeds. To what your Soldiers did to those in the Fillapines. From your International troops, armed with bulletproof vests bayonets, and steeled boots. To the Southside of Chicago to your Special Task Forces and Beatdown crews. From the Congo to Chicago, like a Kenyan Elephant we shall never forget. From your mercenaries in Mogadishu to your flooding every colonized community with Crack, agent provocateurs and rats. Your Agent Orange that you sprayed in Viet Nam and them punk ass preachahs, politicians, and poverty pimps that you sent to my community in order to keep them calm.  You damn right! we remember!
