[@ravondajacobs3623]

This is powerful and still relevant today The REVOLUTION continues

[@drkennethaugustuswalker]

Amazing how relevant his speech is on September 21, 2024 in the "Age of Trump!"

[@Kendell062]

Malcolm X once said "If there were ten men like Adam Clayton Powell in Washington, I'd retire." Nuff said.

[@deloreswillis9224]

Sayyyyy that!! Amen amen amen

[@MultiTHEJOKER]

Did he 😂 was that after or before Nation of Islam the equivalent of the Muslim brotherhood in the Middle East a terrorist organisation of course it doesn’t have anything to with Islam both organisations

[@BeGreat365]

Yup because that means Malcolm wouldn’t have had to fight the black revolution fight because there were more political figures actually doing it

[@jsmith3980]

Two great men.

[@Hallstyle]

That voice is so powerful. Such a great speaker and a great public servant....

[@blacktarot8282]

thanks for posting!

[@fayebradford5763]

Over 50 yrs. of boldness and truth. We need more of him. The kind that the white man fears. He's right about a sick society that we still suffer. A great leader he was! Wow! Obey God and not man! Be a human being that dares. Bc of our minority we still struggle! Being black is a way of thinking. Agree wholeheartedly. Learning of him has been a pleasure!

[@deloreswillis9224]

So very true ❤

[@RadicalforGod]

Its sad blacks don’t hold enough seats in the house to keep people like Powell in office fighting for us. Therefore when votes and legislation passes we are outnumbered and still in the same powerless predicament.

[@jsmith3980]

A point I like about him is that he disliked liberals, ie, Commies

[@ethelparis2255]

so deep we are right at what he is talking about today

[@theinfinitytruth7387]

He was the realist Black man that ever live wasn't no biracial and didn't NEVER claim it.

[@robertrichard6107]

Or, perhaps Frederic Douglas.

@Jack Mehoff this flew over your head bro , relax

[@marvinhagler4721]

@Jack Mehoff Bet you wouldnt tell him that because you would be FLAT on your ass..BELIEVE THAT

[@osiruskat]

Both of his parents were former slaves and like most African Americans have mixed ancestry.

The most Powerful Blackman with an economic power base that dealt with Africa, China, Cuba and other nations. The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad. White power structure is trying to write Him out of History for calling the whiteman the Devil.

Yea, there will be depending on what you're willing to sacrifice. For the good of something much greater than thyself.

My hero! My favorite Civil Rights Leader! My favorite Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Incorporated Brother! One of the most powerful Congressmen in history passing 66 pieces of legislation without defeat. Unmatched in history💪🏾🙏🏾

[@jeffreyyounger5772]

First black / bi-racial. man, to win the cogress or house of rep.,black power, he help create the pre-civil right legislation laws.

[@marlenemartin6302]

Huh⁉️

[@ChiTownHQ]

His parents were light-skinned Black people, and historically in the U.S., racial classification operated under the ‘one-drop rule,’ where any African ancestry classified a person as Black. Unless there’s verifiable evidence of a white parent, he would not be considered biracial by the historical or societal definitions of his time. And you can be sure that he, himself, always 100% percent of the time identified himself as black. Let's be careful not to slap 'biracial' on any light skinned Black person, without doing the research. You can be light skinned and black and not have one white person in your tree, going back several generations.

[@Soulthinker2007]

It said it was the anniversary of Powell's ouster which make this Jan,1968.

[@UCLADrasninArchive]

Thank you, Clint

[@Soulthinker2007]

You are welcome.

[@walterbannister1176]

powell was replaced by charles rangler on january 3, 1971 not 1968

[@Soulthinker2007]

Congress ousted Powell on Jan,1967. He sued Congress,won in the Supreme Court but,never gotten back senority pay.

This is his normal cadence.

[@jsmith3980]

Why haven't we heard more about this man. He disliked Liberals, is that why!? In this respect, he was like Malcolm X.

[@lennyshelton2036]

@45:50 Your woke grandfather when he was young

[@dingolaystar3873]

No, hun. He was conscious. Woke people talk Black but still care what white people think. Rev. Adam Clayton Powell was Afrikan consciousness walking.

At 37:33. Would this jackass ask the Jewish community to forget six million Jewish people marched into gas chambers under the pretense of taking a shower? Yeah, let's forget that.

[@RadicalforGod]

Can’t say he’s lying can you?

[@clifforddriver9434]

He was a great communicator, as good as the House of Congress has ever seen. This individual presided over Harlem, NY. And it was the most progressive African American city in America. I can only imagine what his speeches sound like and the impact they had on an all white audience during his period. He's had weaknesses like all men do. The government would eventually seek to destroy him, much like the government is trying its best to do to Donald Trump, 2023.
