    ✊✊ Black Power simply means: Look at me, I'm here. I have dignity. I have pride. I have roots. I insist, I demand that I participate in those decisions that affect my life and the lives of my children. It means that I am somebody. - Whitney M. Young 👌💯✌

      As a white man, I agree that every man woman or child has a right to voice their concerns, their fears, and their demands. Regardless of race, religion, or sexuality.

    We were kids in Yugoslavia when the overthrow of Milosevic was happening. I happened to live in his hometown at the time. Everyone in the country had the clenched fist badges, shirts posters. Couldn't have been more than 10-12 years old but I remember the cops confiscating them off of our school backpacks, us running away to plaster flyers and posters all over buildings etc.

    No it does not come from france buy they might have used also. Power of the fist is something people have used for 100 and 100 of years. You fight with a fist. The symbolic fist of power comes naturally when you fight for a cause
