A movement that needed the bloodiest war on American soil
that pitted brother against brother
cousin against cousin
to die and rot in a field
for progress
can't be expected to be continued without violence
said Malcom X
said Malcom X
a movement that needed fire hoses and beatings
and police brutality
that pitted man against man
a movement that needed an assassination to finally make a change
needed violence to be continued
