Say Brother; Malcolm X; 317; Bobby Seale interview

The fact that Malcolm X had been murdered probably drove Huey and I to a point to say that we were going have to create an organization reflective of what he was talking about. The fact that Malcolm said that by legal constitutional right, the Second Amendment, that every black man and woman black person in this country had a right to have a shotgun in their home to defend themselves from unjust attacks by racism, which is one point that influences very much. What influences even more was Malcolm's emphasis that we must have a political organization that dealt most immediately with the housing and the clothing and shoes and food for the people. That while we deal with this, ultimately, the revolutionary process will go on and there will probably still be somewhat of a violent revolution as you know, even in this period, although there's new violence still being committed against black people.
