"WE
WANT COMPLETELY FREE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL BLACK AND OPPRESSED PEOPLE"
"We believe that the government must
provide, free of charge, for the people, health facilities which will not only
treat our illnesses, most of which have come about as a result of our
oppression, but which will also develop preventive medical programs to
guarantee our future survival. We believe that mass health education and
research programs must be developed to give all Black and oppressed people
access to advanced scientific and medical information, so we may provide our selves
with proper medical attention and care" - March 29,1972
