MALCOLM X: My Philosophy is Black Nationalism

http://malcolmxfiles.blogspot.com/

“The only way the problem can be solved — first, the white man and the black man have to be able to sit down at the same table. The white man has to feel free to speak his mind without hurting the feelings of that Negro, and the so-called Negro has to feel free to speak his mind without hurting the feelings of the white man. Then they can bring the issues that are under the rug out on top of the table and take an intelligent approach to get the problem solved.”

Q: “Do you consider yourself militant?
A: “I consider myself Malcolm!!”

    @FuttBucker667 MLK …
    @FuttBucker667 MLK must have been disillusioned by intergration philosophy also because he was killed by the white people he loved so much. And during the time of segragation Black families were tight 71% of the family had fathers in the home. and most were employed in their own community and the high shool drop out % was 5 times lower than it is now . After the de-segragation the black community fell apart businesses closed drugs moved in, the family broke apart and unemployment sky rocketed.

    @Donmob There’s nothing wrong with being in control of your own community. Why would you want anyone else running things for you?

    all forms of nationalism are destructive forces, no matter if it’s intelligent black man who is propagating it. But he really had good ideas there 1:08 – 1:29 for that age and time.

    I like what he is saying here for the most part but I hate the concept of national socialism. That’s what the Nazi’s believed in. I wonder what he thought of forced integration. Personally, I’m opposed to it but I’m also opposed to forced segregation. I think that as free individuals we should be able to associate with others as we choose, not as the government dictates.

    @funkateerkitty. …
    @funkateerkitty. the problem with that is now there are few black bussinesses. most of the bussiness that target blacks r owned by whites & asians and increasingly latinos. it whats happen when u have uneuqual integration where blacks r forced to assimilate to be like whites instead of whites acceptin blacks as they r & many blacks tryna follow suit. few stable black areas. white can move into any neighbor raise the prices and force blacks out. it sad but it true. black people need empowerment

    @Remedave1 Well, …
    @Remedave1 Well, yeah, I would have to say he’s still right….self determination and control of one’s own neighbourhood is extremely important and being able to talk to your “enemy” honestly is the only way progress can be made.

    @FuttBucker667 Those blacks that killed Malcolm was piad off by the FEDS.

  • NewKokujinOptions:

    Listen to this. He …
    Listen to this. He wasn’t just “banging on beasts”. He was telling us that we should LEARN WHAT WOULD HELP US OWN AND OPERATE BUSINESSES AND EMPLOY OUR OWN KIND. Learning math, science, engineering, etc. is not “selling-out”, but it’s what will save us!

    Also, we can’t keep trying to fit in with non-Black races (latinos and asians included). Sure, japanese girls are hot, but they like anyone but us. We need to heal and love ourselves. We’ll always be in this rut until we learn these things.

  • antihostile:

    @FuttBucker667 …
    @FuttBucker667 Disillusioned by this philosophy? Absolutely wrong. The vast majority of his criticisms of white America didn’t change at all. He made adjustments after his trip to Mecca because he saw how Islam changed white people, but the idea that he suddenly advocated integration and an MLK style philosophy is wishful thinking on your part. Do some research instead of trying to make the story fit your worldview.

  • FuttBucker667:

    @mttxkr Yeah, I …
    @mttxkr Yeah, I mean it’s not like Malcolm became disillusioned by this philosophy and ended up being killed by his “own people” in the end. Oh wait . . .

    Also, people aren’t trying to misrepresenting Obama because he’s black. Please, stop being so naive.
