		We declare that Negroes, wheresoever they from a community among themselves should be given the right to elect their own representatives to represent them in Legislatures, courts of law, or such institutions as may exercise control over that particular community.
		We declare it unfair and prejudicial to the rights of Negroes in communities where they exist in considerable numbers to be tried by a judge and jury composed entirely of an alien race, but in all such cases members of our race are entitled to representation on the jury.
		We declare taxation without representation unjust and tyran[n]ous, and there should be no obligation on the part of the Negro to obey the levy of a tax by any law-making body from which he is excluded and denied representation on account of his race and color.

		If we do not stop our war against the people of Vietnam immediately, the world will be left with no other alternative than to see this as some horrible, clumsy, and deadly game we have decided to play.

	Lewis. Race and Slavery in the Middle East
		In the Greco-Roman world, both the Cynics and the Stoics are said to have rejected slavery as contrary to justice, some basing their opposition on the unity of the human race, and the Roman jurists even held that slavery was contrary to nature and maintained only by "human" law.
		In the Roman world, the slave population was occasionally recruited from outside, when a new territory was conquered or a barbarian invasion repelled, but mostly, slaves came from internal sources.
		In the East, slave soldiers were recruited mainly among the Turkish and to a lesser extent among the Iranian peoples of the Eurasian steppe and of Central and inner Asia; in the West, from the Berbers of North Africa and from the Slavs of Europe.

		The free Negroes of the North, inspired by the mulatto immigrants from the West Indies, began to change the basis of their demands; they recognized the slavery of slaves, but insisted that they themselves were freemen, and sought assimilation and amalgamation with the nation on the same terms with other men.

		The true Moses, the Moses of the Pentateuch, regards the dispersion of the People as a curse, and his entire religious conception with its laws, its fetes, its ceremonies, its symbols, rests on the foundation of the alliance (of Javeh) with the patriarchs, in an immutable and unalterable alliance.
		On the seventh day of this Passover is chanted in the synagogues of the whole world a fragment of the Pentateuch called the Song of Moses, worse perhaps than the bloody imprecations and murder oaths of the Purim; it is the howl of triumph, the scalp dance, over the corpses of Pharaoh and the Egyptians.
