I'm saying that people will apply "universal" theories to Black people's problems, or will say what they have observed about "black revolutionaries" and how they are going about "revolution" the wrong way, and will show nothing but ignorance to the ideas and theories of the people most intimately involved. Like we can't assess our own problems; other people can assess them if they wish... but atleast have some knowledge of what we have written about them.
