Malcolm X Ethers MLK's Affiliates For 30 Minutes

[Field Marshall Bradley]

MLK didnt start talking about Economics until he met with Elijah Muhammad though, if I recall correctly.

Malcolm and James Farmer debated numerous times. Sometimes Malcolm won other times James Farmer won, especially with regard to repatriating to Africa.

When did he not talk about economics? I don't buy this.

That black dollar


Montgomery bus boycott :

Segregationists used economic violence. “The white people tried to break the boycott by not giving the church cars any insurance. All the churches operated the station wagons, and had their names on the sides. Without insurance, the cars could not operate legally. Every time they got insurance from a new company, the policy would suddenly be canceled.” (The eventual solution to that issue was “Dr. King got in touch with a black insurance agent in Atlanta named T. M. Alexander, and T. M. Alexander got Lloyd’s of London…to write a policy for the church-operated cars.”

Malcolm was a mouthpiece who said a lot of truths and a few things that were wrong.

Difference is Malcolm could never come up with the Poor Peoples Campaign nor could he mobilize people like Martin.

martin didnt write his speeches as well,

We dont know that. Malcolm recognized that the NOI was or was becoming the cult of Elijah Muhammad and woke up. But, he was dead before he could put his natural charisma and magnetism to use outside of the NOI.

This c00n ass nikka like "what if the white man drops an atom bomb and wipes us all out"

Bu bu bu bu but the civil rights generation didn't sell us out.

This was right after WWII and the world saw Japanese cities wiped out. It was a realistic fear.

I agree about black economics, but you need a trillion dollar military to defend the black economy or else it will be burned down to the ground like Black Wall Street.
