  1. When I look back on this wayyyy back in 1965 when I was only 3 years old, not understanding the significance of the event of Feb 21, 1965. As I grew up and began to understand who this man was after reading the Autobiography of Malcolm X as well as a better understanding of how the government worked! Specifically during the J. Edgar era. The one thing that still stands out to me more than anything! Was how right that woman was with the Scarf on her head wayyyy back in 1965, when she said the government put the killer's up to it, with emphasis on the power structure still in place today! Wow!

    R.I.P. to both THEM and Malcolm X together they opened both our eyes and mouths. Yes they achieved that! Respect!

  2. Malcom X is no one to look up to. He was a card carring Marxist. Bent on keeping racism as a divider to harm American. .a racist in speech. What many blacks can't handle, truth. Your not alone when come to an Injustice. Discrimination. Hate , killings. Stop this poor me I'm black . A victim. Look around as Danny Glover's very. He walked off the victim plantation. As many blacks have done. We have more black millionaires then any nation. See your the problem not your color. .

  3. I think to some degree the Nation of Islam actually worked with agencies like the FBI. Or should I say Elijah Muhammad worked with the FBI.

  4. There is only one race, the human race. The negative energy coming from both sides, much like the way certain dog breeds are aggressive towards other dogs, is palpable and guarantees its perpetuation. “You can kill all the haters, but you can’t kill hate” – MLK

  5. FDR was a pragmatist, MLK, Jr. was a philosopher/humanitarian. Now we need a DC monument for Malcolm X, the activist. We need all 3 to create a decent society.

  6. Malcom X was assassinated because he become a global figure, and he was thinking globally, beyond realm of race, religion and humanity, he wanted justice and peace for everyone, and that was the biggest threat to the system of tyranny and fascism, because the whole world wants freedom and truth in the face of western oppression.

  7. Malcolm X was onto something. He realised that the fight for equality for the black man goes beyond the US. He realised we must fight against Western power structure, aka white supremacy. The concept that speaking, eating, dressing and believing in what the white man does is sophistication. Whilst anyone else, unlike the white man, is backwards.
