MALCOLM X

[poetuvdapeople]

Obama is not a House Negro, perhaps Clarence Thomas or Alan Keyes but not Obama, never!!!!

It's interesting to see how far we've come in some aspects - and how far we have to go in others.

my friends taught me an interesting word..think it was northern sweden, "tyckna" which according to them means extreme bastard, saying this will piss the people in that area off so much O.o not here in stockholm though :D

"det finns 2 typer av människor, goa gubbar och tykna jävlar"

there are 2 types of people, good guys and trash

is the translation i can surmise :P

Sweet! I'm getting schooled in some Swedish. Love it!

personally i don't consider lesbian to be offensive (im not female nor gay..so i can't say much) but the friends i do have who are bi/lesbian (curently no male gay friends, only bi) none of them take offense to normal terms.. but i live in sweden and the language is kinda different..

ANYTHING can be made offensive in swedish by saying "Jävel" after the word, Bög-jävel (translation to fag i guess) or neger-jävel(the closest word to nigger in swedish)

i understand what al-queda means, however i think they like alot of people are being close-minded.. i mean he hasn't had a chance to show his true character yet, like them i am sceptical of American presidents, but this one is very unique in many different way's.

I'd love to see a black female homosexual atheist as president, that to me alone (even if she sucks) means REAL change ^^

Another great video Jneil, ianme1, LOL a black athiest lesbian as president? I can't see that happening here for a long time, well Hilary came closest to that. A woman could do no worse than a man, look at Margaret Thatcher, she did a great job. though she is not a lesbian, black or an athiest.

WOW!! Boy you've hit it right on the head! This is worth keeping for life and I will put it on my favorites. WOW!! This is great! Although I now look at race relations differently from Malcolm X, his speeches are still a lifetime treasure, very interesting, intellectual and provocative. Thanks for sharing.

He's one of my Idols and not because of his early separatist stuff, but because the man was deep. I read his autobiography twice (by Alex Haley, author of 'Roots') and it flipped my mind! There was never and never will be another Malcolm X.

Malcolm X called for a change in the international power structure, as I recall. He recognized that the plight of former Africans is apparent not just here in the US. It is an international, particularly western problem.  I liked Denzel Washington's portrayal of Malcolm X. I admit that I never read anything at all about him until I saw the movie.
