Our program is cultural revolution through a total assault on the culture which makes use of every tool, every energy and every media we can get our collective hands on. We take our program with us everywhere we go and use any means necessary to expose people to it.

John Sinclair, Minister of Information

We take as our heroes, those that we have been told to hate and to fear; Eldridge Cleaver, Rap Brown, Fidel. The Red Guard are our Brothers, and Black Panthers are our Brothers, we join with them in the liberation of the planet.
