I do agree with fighting fire with fire. I'm not gonna fight fire with water, necessarily. And if someone charges at me, I'm going to defend myself. Umm... Dr, King was not about that. But what he did do; exposing the demons that existed in America - that's priceless. I mean... it was a sacrifice. But he showed you - this is America. Look at this. I mean, we're non-violent, we're singing 'We Shall Overcome'; and they got the dogs on us. They put us in prison. They're beating the hell out of us. And, of course, when he was killed - I was shattered just by the fact that this man wasn't fighting with the guns and weapons that they're fighting with. So, I personally felt and insult to that. But I could have never marched. Malcolm's concepts and theories about how we should deal with ourselves, how we should really function in this society; that's what made sense to me. So, when you look at The Last Poets; you're really looking at the disciples of Malcolm X.
