Malcolm X on the 'House Negro' and the 'Field Negro'

[TruthSeeker24]

. When Malcolm said field Negro, he's talking about a grassroots, black person concerned about helping his people, especially in poorer community (not a thug or a nihilisit). It just so happens that many field blacks are in the poor areas. House negroes are worst since they have access to opportunities and sometimes refuse to help our their own people ought of fear and misunderstanding. They are a disgrace. Many of theHouseNegroes embrace white supremacistculture.

So far as I know, the entire speech was not filmed. We're fortunate to have portions of it.

I want to see the whole speech. Herman Cain need to see this clip

[watchMEshyne]

i like malcom but this speech created division in the black community. He basically wanted black people to HATE other black people

[watchMEshyne]

Bottem line is , field negros turned out to be worst than house negros. and it was the field negros who killed him in the end. he glorified feild negro culture, and today because of it thugs are more respected in the community than educated well spoken black men. WE HAVE TO SEPARATE

What's his message here?

[MedusaFrauVenus]

@trolljanhorse Communism.

[OneKingdomination]

Go to the White House and youfind the 'House Negro'

[pauldarwinlee]

Malcolm X said that he didn't leave Elijah Muhammad's Nation of Islam, but rather that he was FORCED out of it, and this was BEFORE he made his pilgrimage to the Muslim holy cities of Mecca and Medina.

[nothinglikeafender]

forced out because he found out" the truth" about Elijah

[Originalman320]

@pauldarwinlee If Malcolm said that, then he wasn't being truthful. He did leave on his own.

[Originalman320]

Pardon my language, but what the hell do you mean "pseudo Islamic"? The Nation of Islam is very much Islamic.

[CocoaBrownSkinLady]

@Originalman320 No they aren't. They break the very fundamental rule of Islam, and that is to worship NONE other than Allah or as a partner along with Allah. W.D. Fard was NOT Allah swt and no true Muslim would believe such rubbish.

[Originalman320]

@CocoaBrownSkinLady Allah can appear in man. The Holy Qur'an 15:29 says Allah breathed into man His spirit. So yes, Allah can appear in a man. By the way, if we're not true Muslims, then there are none left. We worship none but Allah, and YES Master Fard Muhammad is Allah in person. Nothing in the Holy Qur'an says Allah can't appear in man.

[CocoaBrownSkinLady]

@Originalman320 This is a gross misinterpretation of the Quran al-Hakim. I ask you, are you fluent in fusha Arabic language and are you qualified as a mufassir? If not you should keep quiet and defer to those with more knowledge. NOWHERE in the Quran is this kind of shirk authorized or permissible, by saying that Allah swt came in the form of a man you invent lies against Allah just as He warned the Christians against. The 'spirit of Allah' that you mention is NOT Allah Himself, it is a spirit

[Originalman320]

@CocoaBrownSkinLady The only gross misrepresentation is from you. I don't claim to be a Arabic scholar no more than you are. There's only one way for me to keep quiet, and that price is too high for you to quiet me. So hell no I won't keep quiet when I see the real Muslims that woke me up.  I'm talking about the Hon. Elijah Muhammad, through his chief representative, Min. Farrakhan.

[CocoaBrownSkinLady]

@Originalman320 lol the 'real Muslims', who claim to hate white people but worship a half-white man who ripped off of Islam and Christianity and invented a cult to deceive black people. Wake up!

[Originalman320]

@CocoaBrownSkinLady lol is all I did in reading your post. I'm wide awake. It's you who need to wake up. Until you do, get out of my face.

[CocoaBrownSkinLady]

@Originalman320 You're blind, deaf and dumb and you don't even see it. Your 'master' Fard invented a religion and brainwashed people into believing his ridiculous nonsense. Tell me, if the creation of black people as the 'master race', the 'mothership' and the 'evil Yaqub' are such important and monumentous occasions in history, and the truth, why isn't any of this stuff mentioned ANYWHERE in the Quran you claim to believe in? Why didn't the prophet Muhammad or any b4 him mention these things?

[Originalman320]

@CocoaBrownSkinLady You know the Qur'an doesn't have the history of everything in it. Second of all it wasn't for Muhammad of 1400 years ago to expose the evil of this world at the root. The ridiculous nonsense is coming from you. Now unlike you, I actually have a life beyond Youtube. You need to get one.

[CocoaBrownSkinLady]

@Originalman320 Muslims believe that the Qur'an was sent as a mercy for mankind and that the basics of creation were described in it. All of the 'Yaqub' nonsense isn't there because it has nothing to do with creation, it was made up by your biracial leader. Something as important as creation, where evil comes from and how we should deal with evil are ALL covered in the Quran and the Sunnah. Your ridiculous cult has no place in either because it's made up and has nothing to do with Islam.

[Originalman320]

@CocoaBrownSkinLady There's nothning nonsensical about it. By the way I see no so called "orthodox" Muslim do what the Hon. Elijah Muhammad has done in remedying the ills of our people. Until you name ONE that has matched, much less surpassed him, you can't tell me a damn thing.

[CocoaBrownSkinLady]

@Originalman320 I don't see anything good that Elijah Muhammad did. Even his son renounced his ridiculous made-up beliefs and accepted the one True God, Who beget not, nor was He begotten and there is none like unto Him, as the Qur'an al-Hakim says. Wallace Ford came out of his WHITE mother's vagina just as Jesus came out of one, therefore NEITHER of them were God.

[Originalman320]

@CocoaBrownSkinLady Stevie Wonder can see the good that the Hon. Elijah Muhammad did, and he's blind. Those that heard the word from the Hon. Elijah Muhammad cleaned themselves up.  The fact that Islam has a root in the Black community is due to the work of the Hon. Elijah Muhammad. The fact that you have Malcolm shows the good that the Hon. Elijah Muhammad did. Until you have something of substance, you have nothing to talk about.

[Originalman320]

@CocoaBrownSkinLady By the way, who the hell said we hate White people? We're not stupid enough to love them. We didn't rip off a damn thing.

[CocoaBrownSkinLady]

@Originalman320 Tell me, who are Fard's parents? Obviously since he was biracial, somebody 'loved' white people enough to create him? So you only love him halfway? He was no African man my friend, he was half white.

[CocoaBrownSkinLady]

@Originalman320 FROM Him that he created man from. Just as the Quran says that Allah created Jesus peace be upon him with a word "Be" and a spirit from Allah, breathed into him. I pray that Allah swt guides you and that you repent from your shirk.

[MwariamaKamau]

Thank you Brother Paul. This rare clip coupled with extraordinary contextualization helps expand my appreciation for the miracle of Brother Malcolm X. You leave your audience without a question to ask. Keep up the excellent work; your students are watching.

Peace

So is Obama a house negro or a field negro since he's bourgeoisie and attended an Ivy League school?

[innoswagg]

Obama just bought us from "Massa." He's now a seemingly compassionate half-caste slave owner. He' not ready to destroy the system. However well intentioned he may be, he's only offering instrumental change to fundamental problems.

Politicians are not revolutionary, but they can assist revolutionaries. Only time can judge Obama's value to his race.

[totenkray]

Wait isn't Obama half white thus the revolution is tainted? When will there be a black president is what I want to know. Can you give me a time frame.

Respectively Brother Rockiem

[1stGenRefugee]

All it takes is a moments reflection to see that Obama is a House Negro.

[ZaleOutlaw]

obama is not a house or field negro. his mother is white and his father is AFRICAN. Negro is a word that refers to the africans that were sold into bondage and enslaved by whites in amerika. some full-blooded worked in the house, and the black women who were raped by white men, bore "house negro" mulatto children. obama's mother is white so he is not a house negro, nor a field negro. Obama is just a STRAIGHT DEVIL. he does not identify with "negroes" cause none of his ancestors were enslaved.

[1stGenRefugee]

house negro is a state of mind brother. but i follow what youre saying.

[ZaleOutlaw]

yes it is, but what im saying, the house negro state of mind was literally created due to the negroes who were really in the house. today, it's just the bourgeous negroes who have the state of mind, but when you check their pedigree, either they actually are descendants of house negroes, or they are upper-middle to upper class, and therefore they identify with whitey more than with their true african self. either way, the house negro mentality is rooted in the house/upper class negro experience.

[Papillonmuscogee]

@ZaleOutlaw, this kind of talk is what keeps people of color, blacks, african americans, whatever, SEPARATED. Like someone else said, it's a state of mind. Let me tell you though, uh, there are many "field negroes" with a "house negro" mentality, since we're going there.

[ZaleOutlaw]

@Papillonmuscogee you know what, you are right. When people tell the truth about the house negro and field negro, it keeps black people apart, but guess what, that's too bad, and i dont care. Psychologically, there are black people who literally identify themselves as "white" and actually ASSIST whites in the destruction of black people. So i dont want to be united with those type of black people. Any type of black person that identifies with their former slavemaster, is the enemy.

[jswba73]

Excellent. Thank you

[pauldarwinlee]

Thank you, Mama Misha & Bro. Doug. However, I must respectfully disagree with Doug's comment that I'm the "true scholar" on Malcolm X--or anyone/thing else. Nor am I the "Only" one who could've placed the video in context.

Best Efforts, Inc., our professional research and consulting service, would not like other scholars to "step aside." Instead, we hope to set a standard of scholarly rigor that they might find worthy of consideration, as well as benefit our readers.

Brother-Lee yours,

Paul

[dhender499]

Only Paul Lee could do such a marvelous job placing such valuable footage in its proper historical context. His work is non pareil. The pseudo Malcolm X scholars should step aside and let the true scholar present such an important figure to the world as only he can.

[MishaBKLYN]

Truly a treasure to have the video and text to set up the story.
