  • In 1962, a confrontation with the LAPD outside a mosque resulted in the death of a Nation of Islam member. It was an event seized on by an outraged Malcolm X, who would condemn it in an impassioned speech.

      His message would fall on deaf ears today. Unfortunately the vast majority of black people in America have been brainwashed into believing that we are going to be able to sing, march, hug and cry (into the arms of cops) our way out of 400 years of subjugation. So nothing is ever going to change, maybe on the surface but not any real meaningful changes. Ironically those of us who understand what a revolution actually is and are actually willing to fight for real freedom are the ones leaving the country and repatriating. You just get to the point where you get tired of seeing your people living on their knees and begging for acceptance and fair treatment.

People nowadays seem to forget with these men and women endured. their mothers fathers grandmother's grandfather's brothers and sisters were chased by dogs sprayed by hoses beaten for kissing each other in public kept from getting jobs harassed for decades, scratch that hundreds of years, and people expect within 60 years things to be wiped under the bridge. Malcolm x didn't hate white people he hated the idea that white people were supreme. It's hard for me to imagine seeing that kind of stuff and myself not being able to do a damn thing about it, which is why I'm glad I grew up in the era that I did. one can only dream of standing up for the things you believe in like these great men did

Malcolm X's way of speaking is very old timey and quite binary. "The White Man." Good luck finding him. Try finding "The White Man" in Sicily, or Nicauragua. Try finding "The White Man" in Palestine or Israel. Try finding "The White Man" when the billionaire class has wasted every last shred of every last resource on this planet and subjugated all non-billionaires to arbitrary control and punishment right down to the very thoughts that they are even capable of forming within their own skull. Is the white man who has been mentally shattered by war service and opoid addiction to blame for the crooked cops who run around? No, Mr. X, asking to burn down the house of "the white man" is not any way to bring about a world in which a person's race is inconsequential. Why hasn't the "white man" gotten the police in Minneapolis and elsewhere in order? Many have been crippled by the same system.

      It isn’t , it’s genuine community concern.
      Funny how that exact argument could be said about the white folks now, we are being taught to hate our own existence, to accept the great ancestral-guilt complex, to bend and kiss the feet of people and prostrate yourself before other human beings . The tables have turned , the horseshoe has come full circle and met in the midst of racism and hate, empowerment has become the systematic oppression of all things white or at least that’s the impression given to the world. And I think it’s just as dangerous and humiliating as what they are trying to eliminate.
      Brother Malcom was a product of the times he lived in and powerful relevant voice of the people who just happened to be murdered by the very people he strived so hard to uplift from the depths of oppression
      Now is not the time for the resurgent oppressive narrative , but a time for folks to realise we are all one race inhabiting the same planet, this self deprecating hatred is not the way to go , you don’t fight racism with racism you fight it with love and understanding and an open mind
