The Violence of the Lambs
[Pastor Jeremiah Wright]
What Malcolm X said, when he got silenced by Elijah Muhammad was in fact true, "America's chickens are coming home, to roost!"
We took this country by terror, away from the Sioux, the Apache, the Arawak, the Comanche, the Arapaho, the Navajo; terrorism! We took Africans from their country to build our way of ease and kept them enslaved, and living in fear;
Terrorism!
We bombed Grenada and killed innocent civilians, babies, non-military personnel; We bombed the black civilian community of Panama with stealth bombers and killed, unarmed teenagers and toddlers, pregnant mothers and hard working fathers
We bombed Gaddhafi's home and killed his child. We bombed Iraq, we killed unarmed civilians, trying to make a living
We bombed a plant in the Sudan to pay back for the attack on our embassy
Killed hundreds of hard working people, mothers and fathers, who left home to go that day not knowing that they'd never get back home
We bombed Hiroshima, We bombed Nagasaki! And we bombed far more than the thousands in New York, and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye
Kids playing in the playground, mothers, picking up children after school, civilians, not soldiers, people just trying to make it day by day
We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, AND NOW WE ARE INDIGNANT!
Because the stuff we have done overseas is now brought right back into our own front yards!
America's CHICKENS, are coming home, to roost
