"It is sometimes incorrectly thought that genocide means the complete and definitive destruction of a race or people. The Genocide Convention, however, adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations on December 9, 1948, defines genocide as any killings on the basis of race, or, in its specific words, as 'killing members of the group.' Any intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, racial, ethnic or religious group is genocide, according to the convention." "We maintain, therefore, that the oppressed Negro citizens of the United States, segregated, discriminated against and long the target of violence, suffer from genocide as the result of consistent, conscious, unified policies of every branch of government." "We believe that in issuing this document we are discharging an historical responsibility to the American people, as well as rendering a service of inestimable valuye to progressive mankind.We speak of progressive mankind because a policy of discrimination at home must inevitably create racist commodities for export abroad - must inevitably tend toward war." (William L. Patterson, National Executivbe Secretary, Civil Rights Congress).
