The words of Mohammed Ali Clay when he refused to join the army
American:
Why are they asking me to wear the uniform of the US military? ..
Why are they asking me to wear the uniform of the US military?
I go 10,000 miles away to throw bombs
And lead to Vietnamese brown-skinned people
Although the owners of brown skin here are treated
As dogs are stripped of the most basic rights? !
I will not travel ten thousand miles to kill and burn another nation
Poor only to continue the domination of the white man enslaved
To other dark-skinned people everywhere.
This is the day when these evils must end,
They warned me that my stay would cost me millions
Dollars, but I said it and I will say it again, that my enemy
The real is here on this earth will not insult my religion, nor
My nation, not myself by making myself a tool to enslave them from
They fight for justice, freedom and equality
Their own. If you think war will give freedom
For 22 million of my family, I will join them tomorrow, I do not have
Something I lose by defending my beliefs
The prison? What's the problem? We live in a prison since 400
