I believe he said the "red man gotta make that change"
Im going to listen to it now - but ive always remembered
it that way . he was more or less stating ALL men need to
make that change ..

Yes he said the "red" man gotta make that change

"Red" man = Indigenous American

sounds to me like Black man, then white man, then red man.

would basically mean all Americans.

Black=African American
White=White American
Red=Indian American

As far as i knew? Correct me if im wrong
