The King Alfred Plan Gil Scott-Heron

The King Alfred Plan - Gil Scott-Heron
[Intro]
Um, it’s 1972, an election year, and once again, black people are running for their lives. Reasons are things like the King Alfred Plan. The concentration camps that were used during the second World War to house oriental-Americans are now being refurbished to, um, confine their new residents—i.e. black people. Brothers and sisters, there is a place for you in America. This is the King Alfred Plan. 

[Rap]
Ha! Brothers and sisters, there is a place for you in America
Places are being prepared and readied
Night and day, night and day
The white boy's plan is being readied
Night and day, night and day
Listen close to what Rap say about traps like Allenwood P.A. 
Already legal in D.C. to preventively detain you and me
How long you think it's going to be
Before even our dreams ain't free?
You think I exaggerate?
Check out Allenwood P.A. 
Night and day, night and day
The white boy's scheming night and day
The Jews and Hitler come to mind
The thought of slavery far behind
But white paranoia is here to stay
The white boy's scheming night and day

What you think about the King Alfred Plan?
You ain't heard? Where you been, man?
If I may paraphrase the government notice reads:
"Should there at anytime become a clear and present danger initiated by any radical element threatening the operation of the government of the United States of America, members of this radical element shall be transported to detention centers until such time as their threat has been eliminated—code King Alfred."
