I pledge allegiance to my own Black self-respect

and to the respect of all other Black

and shades of Black people on planet earth;

all of whom are victims

of the system of racism white supremacy

and I pledge to use all my life energy, intelligence and creativity,

in all areas of people activity,

to eliminate the global system of racism white supremacy on planet earth

and to replace it with justice; so that there can be peace.

So help me God.
