"A symbol is like a 'charged'
                  thing; is a living thing, is
                         stored energy."

                          --Chief Fela Sowande

             i was too young
             and far
             removed
             to hear you speak,
             but,
             i have
             grown into the WE of
             your
                    WORDS
             your
                    SPIRIT
             your
                    GIFT
             inspiring so many of us
             to be,
             to become ONE
             people ...

                       --Malcolm X
                         (1925-1965)
