Doesn't make you down for the cause, unless your cause is socialism.

When we say "Down for the Cause", we're talking about the upliftment of black people. And if you're a practical person like myself, you will use whatever ideology/method it takes to get to where we want to be. So if it means selling drugs in order to open up a business or elect a president (see Kennedy), or pooling my money into a cooperative, or just getting together with different heads to exchange ideas, that's what we have to do.

Furthermore you are insulting the all the people of faith who have done far more for the cause than any member of the communist/socialist parties in this country.

When's the last time anyone mentioned Eugene Debs when they were talking about black upliftment?

Turn the other cheek, A Christian Philosophy practiced by lots of Christians during the civil rights movement, is pretty damn effective philosophy. The fact that so many Americans were shamed by what they saw in the South is part of the reason the Voting Acts right of 65 got passed.

Don't let the philosophers get in the way of the mission.
