Malcolm X is the most relevant icon of all-time

[Poh SIti Dawn]

Nice thread, I was looking for a registry of books read by Malcolm the other day ago.

 

[Poh SIti Dawn]

his speech from 1962 in LA is probably my favorite one from him

Phew he put that heat on it. Put them 5 digits together breh

 

[Poh SIti Dawn]

It doesn't. nikkas really mad bc I asked that question tho.

@KOohbt

Well its an insult to our intelligence.

You come into this thread knowing what it is and isn't about, and then you ask an insignificant question based off of information that you got that was geared towards his defamation.

If you know Malcolm by his words then you'd know that he always spoke about those who try to lie against others.

But if you don't know that, then you shouldn't be asking if he was gay or not, you should be asking at which place should you start so that you can gain some knowledge of the man.

With that being said, let's squash the petty arguments in here and let's share some knowledge.

That Malcolm speech in LA was really inspiring, but it's crazy how at the end he said "and if he can't keep that house clean, then he shouldn't have a house, it should burn" he said with no emotion but it just gave me this weird feeling like woah.

Man listening to him talk I couldn't think about how disappointed to see what black folk are now. He wouldn't do anything but cry. Matter fact all out black leaders that were murdered would do the same thing. It's like their message died along with them.

I don't necessarily agree with this, Black leaders know how fukked up the situation for black folks was and that it would probably take a LONG time for the situation to be even close to being equal and the complicated mess of factors, that's why I never liked when we pretend the movement is close to being over, very very few struggles aren't very long and folks are going to have to face that fact

Realest breh!

I don't expect anyone to sit down for 2 hours and watch the entire collection of speeches, but from 2:01:40 to 2:06:44 (basically 5 minutes) is pure gold.

And if you listen to this in the context of Michael Brown, Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner and others, it's hard not to agree that his words are as relevant now as they were then.

I get chills listening to some of his interviews and speeches !


Luv ya Brother Malik ...

No he isn't.
That's a ridiculous statement to make in regards to anyone.

His auto biography should be required reading for every nikka.

I remember I lost my first copy on a train, hope some young fatherless ignorant nukka picked it up

You obviously ain't retain anything reading it because you still spew out stereotypes perpetuated by bigot white to slander other black people
