Breh, the message of the thread already been lost. For whatever reason on this site you can't have a positive discussion about black men without having to tear other black men down in the process.
That wasn't even the intent of the thread. The message of this thread was to share information, and to let ppl know that they've been giving another man's credit to the wrong man.
That's all. If people still want to support Malcolm, that's your prerogative. All I'm saying is, get informed on what really went down.
Wha'ts wrong with that?
Are you really at liberty to make that statement with ZERO knowledge of Malcolms ventures and political affiliations in Africa?
come on bra, smh. RESEARCH!
Well breh, from what I know about what Malcolm was doing in Africa, that still wasn't causing that much of a fuss.
Breh, you're looking at this stuff through what somebody else already said: The historical lense of white supremacy. They rewrote this history, mane!
A lot of stuff that you're hearing now isn't even how everything went down.
I can prove it with this one simple statement: Most of the cats on this site had NO IDEA that the Nation of Islam under the leadership of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad accomplished so much.
Why didn't they know it?
Because they've been looking at the history of black people in America through the lense of white supremacy, which "conveniently" leaves that part out.
wow....standard text book reply..... i didn't expect any different,,
Im gonna be real with you, every and I mean every NOI cat that I personally know or ever met ALWAYS without fail try to low-key shyt on Malcolm and Khalid.....
I've never understood it, no one is taking away from the achievements of the NOI but it always seems to bother them that Malcolm and Khalid resonated with people ....
Breh, how is me posting the accomplishments of the Nation taking a dump on Malcolm?
I'm showing you where Malcolm got what he had from!
And then you want to insinuate that there's some jealousy or something like that...
Go back to my first few posts in this thread and look back over what the Nation accomplished, and then you come back and tell me what reason any of them would have had to be "jealous" over Malcolm.
Because he got a stamp?
If anything, THAT proves my point. White ppl have never been shy about Malcolm X. They put out hundreds of thousands of books on him, put him on a stamp.
I mean, they PUSHED him out there hard.
Then they tried to erase all information about Elijah Muhammad and what he accomplished.
Now you tell ME which one they were more afraid of.
