| | Diane Abbott |  | Many young people carrying real or imitation firearms do so in a mistaken attempt to either boost their image, or from a misguided idea about self-protection. In addition, most London shootings involve members of the black community and are often related to deprivation, gang rivalry or the illegal drug trade. |
| | Louis Farrakhan |  | Many of the Jews who owned the homes, the apartments in the black community, we considered them bloodsuckers because they took from our community and built their community but didn't offer anything back to our community. |
| | Louis Farrakhan |  | The image of the black community is horrendous in the world. The image of black men in particular is that of a bestial, maniacal and savage group of persons. |
| | Henry Hampton |  | We don't have a full black community in Boston. Our people are scattered. There's a middle class where I live in Highland Park but it's not like a piece of Washington or Chicago. |
| | Alphonso Jackson |  | The so-called black leaders of this nation have convinced a large portion of the black community that blacks aren't capable of self-advancement. |
| | Tim Reid |  | How did we suddenly become entranced with gangster culture? I saw it this morning on campus. When did the black community say we should all look like criminals? |
| | Bobby Seale |  | The first point was we wanted power to determine our own destiny in our own black community. And what we had done is, we wanted to write a program that was straightforward to the people. We didn't want to give a long dissertation. |
| | John Singleton |  | It's been said in the black community that mothers raise their daughters and spoil their sons, they baby them to the point that they don't ever want to leave, give them so much love. |
| | Will Smith |  | The first eight years of schooling was with all white people. So that helped me to understand how white people think. I think that transition is what helped me bridge the gap, because that's what my success has really been about: bridging the gap between the black community and the white community. |
| | Ed Smith |  | I think in terms of the specific aspects making Washington different than, say, Atlanta, or even Richmond or many other southern cities is the immediate post-civil war period. The fact that you create Howard University in 1867 just two years after the war ends. No other city that has a black community can claim a Howard. |
