On this day in 1963, Malcolm X gave a speech entitled "Message to the Grassroots" to the Northern Negro Grass Roots Leadership Conference in Detroit, Michigan. In this historic speech, Malcolm X contrasted the difference between a "Black Revolution" and a "Negro Revolution". He contrasted the "House Negro" and the "Field Negro" during slavery and during his generation.
He also criticized the 1963 March on Washington which was taken over from Grass Roots organizers and given to civil rights leaders whom the Kennedy administration and white liberals deemed safe and non-controversial to the liberal whites. Tonight as we review "Message to the Grassroots" and update you on political prisoner related issues on Political Prisoner Radio.

TELL CDCR THAT THE PRACTICE OF ISSUING 115 WRITE-UPS FOR PARTICIPATING IN THE HUNGER STRIKE IS OUTRAGEOUS!
Please contact M. D. Stainer, Director of the Division of Adult Institutions at CDCR. Your voice needs to be heard by the people making decisions! Tell him to end this policy of punishing people for refusing their meals in nonviolent protest, and to reverse the 115s that were given out. Let him know that you are distressed to hear that about his policy of issuing 115 write-ups, further oppressing the peaceful hunger strikers.
