History is best qualified to reward our research and he who does not learn the lessons of history is doomed to repeat them. The slave mindset is a dreadful state in which, before we begin enlightening black people, we must consider which white person we will upset. If we truly want to see our people free, we will undoubtedly disturb those that oppress us. To the degree that the oppressor controls us, it is to that degree that we lack offense to him.
But the one who is not under his control is the most provocative and dangerous of all just because he behaves as per his excellent judgement. It is beautiful to be emancipated. When you know the truth, it sets you free. When you understand the truth then it transforms into a weapon in your hands.
It's one thing to know it for yourself and be liberated by that knowledge. To know how to wield the truth as a weapon against your adversaries and to awaken thousands of people, you must first understand it. Consequently, the goal is not just to know the truth, but also to become educated consumers of it, so that we may not only liberate ourselves, but also the humble masses.
