 * "epton" :

You didn't have to have a trial to "prove" these things. All you had to do was ask me and I would have told you – Yes! There's no problem – There's no secret – whatever we write and publish we sign with our name, address and phone number. We are willing and not afraid to put out ideas in the public view. ... Did you, at any time, think that we would deny what we do and have done? Did you think that we would deny what we hold to be true and what we believe in? Do you think that all people in this country have been so "brain dirtied" and have been so thoroughly corrupted that they are afraid to express an independent thought – to stand up for what they believe and fight for it? Well, there are people in this country who are governed by ideas that do not come out of the pages of the Times and the Daily News, and their numbers grow every day. And I am sure that this so-called "trial" has opened up many more eyes. Whatever we do and whatever we believe in – we do and believe that it is in the interest of the people of this country; And yes – we are proud to have done it and to be doing it and we stand behind our actions four-square!

The New York Times article notes: "A grand jury indicted Mr. Epton on charges that his speeches kept the Harlem Riot of 1964 going. In one, which was secretly recorded by an undercover officer assigned to monitor the Progressive Labor Party, he said, "We're going to have to kill a lot of cops, a lot of the judges, and we'll have to go against their army." stdin: [sixties-l&#93; Bill Epton, Former PLP Activist, Dies DumZiBoT (talk) 21:39, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
 * We Accuse: Bill Epton's Speech to the Court

Did he ever actually say it?
Supposedly (according to the NYT obituary), Bill Epton's trial settled the question of whether it was constitutional to say 'burn, baby, burn'. However, I can't find it stated anywhere that he actually said those words. Is there any source that reliably attributes them to him, or is it just a widespread misconception?
