You never will get protection from the federal government. Thats like, King is asking Kennedy to go to Alabama to stand in the doorway, put his body in the doorway. Thats like asking the fox to protect you from the wolf. And when black -- now, the masses of black people can see this. And it is only the Negro leadership, the bourgeois, hand-picked handful of Negroes who think that theyre going to get some kind of respect, recognition, or protection from the government. The government is responsible for what is happening to black people in this country. The president has power; you notice he didnt send any troops into Birmingham to protect the Negroes when the dogs were biting the Negroes. The only time he sent troops into Birmingham was when the Negroes erupted, and then the president sent troops in there, not to protect the Negroes, but to protect them white people down there from those erupting Negroes.
