The
Revolutionary Action Movement(RAM), an all black
membership organization, is described as a highly
militant secretive organization which follows
the Chinese-oriented Marxist Leninist line and
believes in replacing the capitalistic system
with socialism. This group was organized in the
winter of 1963 by a group of blacks who supported
Robert F.Williams, a Negro fugitive from justice
in voluntary exile in Cuba. The leaders of the
RAM encouraged all black people to follow this
organization, but only the members of the organization
seemed to be followers. The leadership of the
March of Washington refused to follow them and
refused their support. In 1966, RAM formed the
Jamaica Rifle and Pistol Club for the purpose
of holding firearms practice.
