No, I am not going 10,000 miles to help murder kill and burn other people to simply help continue the domination of white slavemasters over dark people the world over. This is the day and age when such evil injustice must come to an end.

Resistance to the Vietnam and protest took many forms : demonstrations all over the world since the famous Jane Fonda's call from Radio Hanoi, for peace..
Muhammad Ali, 'the greatest', on August 23, 1966, embarked on his biggest "fight" when he applied with the Selective Service for conscientious objector status.
He used his voice against the Vietnam War, willing to speak out against racism in the US and this famous talk about the living conditions of the Third World.

In another part of the 'black movement', the Black Panther Party also fought against this illegal war, by preeches and denunciations like these following posters edited in the early 70's.
