oops, that reference is to a compilation of quotes. the original reference
is even more pertinent:
Haile Selassie's address to the United Nations on October 6, 1963

hey aj peoples,
just thought i'd share this url with yall. it's the full text of Haile
Selassie's, "The Wisdom of Jah Rastafari". it's more relevant then ever
after the US/Israel pullout of the UN Conference on Racism:
------------------------
until the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is
finally and permanently discredited and abandoned.
That until there are no longer first class and second class citizens of any
nation; That until the colour of a man's skin is no more significance than
the colour of his eyes:
That until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all, without
regard to race;
That until that day, the dream of lasting peace and world citizenship and
the rule of international morality will remain but a fleeting illusion to be
pursued but never attained;
