Hellfire and Brimstone Method

I have learned a lot from ULK 63, particularly from an article from a Michigan prisoner on “Challenges and Growth in Recruiting Skills.” I myself have always been a passionate orator since my former days as an official of the Moorish Science Temple of America. But as my political consciousness began to rise and I became more of a revolutionary realist, I find that the hellfire and brimstone approach is not always wise.

I have learned that most reasonable men can be persuaded through intellectual dialing based on facts, statistics and logic. Then there are the masses that really don’t know what they want but know something must change. I have some good ideas on how to organize some comrades although I must admit my objective is somewhat obscure. I love how this prisoner from Michigan laid out the format of organizing through dialectical materialism, which he later gave a definition of as I would say “a scientific process of trial and error.” I love hearing and reading the understandings of others, it raises my own.
