KWAME TURE1966 : "UNDERSTAND YOURSELF, WHITE MAN."

In this 1966 CBS News interview, Kwame Ture claimed white people—not Africans—are uncivilized. The white man's actions in Africa—disruption, breaking down indigenous systems and enslaving Africans—demonstrate uncivilized behaviour, said Ture, who was in the US-based Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee at the time of the interview. Ture, who later joined the All-African People's Revolutionary Party, went on to say Africans are still suffering from the consequences of Europeans' uncivilized actions.
