- I think with all this talk about Malcolm X the main thing to keep in mind is:
-
- DON'T JUST PUT THE X ON YOUR HEAD, PUT IT IN YOUR HEAD
-
- I can't count the number of suckers I have seen sportin' the X cap who I know
- don't know shit about the man or his message. I have read at least 20+ books
- on the Nation of Islam, Malcolm X, and the Black Panthers. I even chose to do
- my SUFFICIENCY, which is 25 page research paper on the Black Muslims. The only
- Malcolm X thing I own is a shirt I bought 2.5 years ago (at least) when it
- wasn't "cool" yet to wear his stuff. I am white and I still see the messages
- of Malcolm overlooked by whites as well. Racism taught Racism and only by
- totally denouncing it (ie Black Supremacy is wrong as well) can one start to
- stop ALL forms of racism and start to improve humanity. Wear the Hat, buy the
- clothes but at least read his Autobiography and if you want to know about the
- way Malcolm REALLY thought his lasy days, pick "The last year of Malcom X"
