MALCOLM X essential-the life of malcolm x part1 of 15

@ 3:57 is that the momma from good times

[madelefant05]

I don't think African Americans though they were free before he came along.

[TRBtree]

I'd love to hear what the great leaders of the past, like Malcolm X, Dr. King, and Stokely Carmichael, would say about Barack Obama and his administration.

[shafarrr]

I LIKE AND LOVE MALCOLM X TEACHER THE MOST HONORABLE ELIJAH MUHAMMAD. HE SAID ALL THESE THINGS AND MORE BECAUSE ELIJAH WAS TAUGHT BY ALLAH GOD IN PERSON . AMD STOP CALLING HIM MALCOLM, MALCOLM SAID HIS NAME IS MALIK EL-SHABAZZ.

[Elmore3141]

Wasn't this guy murdered by three negro Muslims? Negroes are always killing each other. I guess they can't control themselves, probably because white people control their minds. It's a wonder that white people have time to do anything other than control, influence, oppress, brainwash, and indoctrinate black people.

Shouldn't all black people move to Africa to get away from white people?

@sameeh86 im all for free speech but can u please disable the comments. i dont think people should be able to get on here and talk shit about him. there is a certain line you shouldnt cross. im not muslim in the least hell i had bacon with breakfast this morning. but i admire how he filled and continues to fill blacks with pride in their race. it pisses me off when dummies get on here and try to drag his name thru the mud for no reason other than to try and sound smart.

[deep2111]

@PIMPIN247BIATCH but would u trust a persons opinion who says the bacon is nasty....there must be a fundamental floor in anyone who believes that....

[SamRowan97]

That woman dancing and singing at 3:54 looks just like Esther Rolle. Malcolm was a prince.

[davisismail1comcast]

@SamRowan97 Your observation would be correct. Esther Rolle was very much a student and advocate for black liberation movements all through out her life. Most of our people only know her for the T.V show Good Times. She was a brilliant women.

[MikeTysonEatsKids]

Fuck Elija Muhamad!

The great liar in this world.

Long Live Malcolm X!

[gigagroove]

Elijah Mohammed allowed (and possibly had Malcolm killed). Black muslims, Fruit of Islam, need to come to grips with the participation in Malcolm's murder. Elijah Mohammed had young girlfriends, and Malcolm was punished for being truthful, like the Koran said to be. As Malcolm later realized, it's not really just a white system, but an IMPERIAL system, that uses people of all colors to rape Blacks and the world. There are Black/Brown Muslims right now living in mansions while people struggle

[translationwiz]

Is this the exact same documentary as "Make it Plain" here on Youtube in segments?

i dont think king was begging for entry into america

[Sanguinor666]

you are so ignorant

[Sanguinor666]

racist black pigs

[thelight1906]

I am very devout Christian, but I consider this guy a deceased mentor....he was a GREAT man.

[tookool4school]

@thelight1906 you don't have to be a Muslim to appreciate Malcolm's philosophy and wisdom. Just like one doesn't have to be Christian to appreciate Martin Luther King Jr.

We are all in this together.

[truthhitmanisback]

The devil never said it , a man said it. Before the white man came into existence there were black devils also. Thing is, truth is not in a lot of black peoples hearts thats why they dont like Malcolm X. Everyone knows the truth now. They havent got nothing on Malcolm X. A lot of them Muslims cheat on their wives, including Elijah, and even Muhammad ALI. Malcolm X was black peoples manhood. Now the morality of blacks has gone down the drain with all these churches & black organizations around

[bigq313don]

I agree 100%

[rebelabyss]

at 7:15 the devil says malcom provoked an act of war on white people

[rebelabyss]

when malcom x was with the honerable elijah muhumad he was the greatest. i love him for giving us malcomx and i hate the white man for taking him away from us. and those black fbi crackers that killed him can go with the white man to hell

[alsirx]

Bluballzz Fuck you, you aren't Malcolm, how would you know what the hell he wanted, also if that were the case, then all he was doing was riding the messengers coat tail, to make a name for himself, all through the video it shows how he wanted to bigger than the one that raised him up, besides you aren' t the circle of know so go to hell. Also you don't know whom killed him, since you love him so much, you can make your reservations soon enough to join him, since you won't join on to your own.

[jide1000]

I think Farrakhan should clarify the statement he made implicating the Nation in Malcolm's death. Otherwise people are bound to take him at his word literally.

[alsirx]

One more thing, to show the level of ignorance of our people, listen to the comment at 1:32 / Where he speaks on Our(His and others that think like this) desire to be loved by the whiteman!! Hmmm, lets look at that statement, we know he is 100% disagreeable to live with(DEVIL), yet we still try to force a man that has no love in him to love us! he doesn't even love himself, how can he love us as a people, also this thinking still goes on today, this is why we are styled as deaf, dumb and blind.

[alsirx]

Also the Malcolm you all love was most effective when he was with the messenger, not that so-called transformed Malcolm,that never produced anything in comparison to even put him on the level even in ones thinking to the messenger,Alex Haley, Muhammad Ali, Farrakhan, Silas, Wallace, Joe Tex, Malcolm, James Brown, Dr. King, any blackman in North America period didn't nor could do what the messenger did and all those names took a piece of the messenger,along with countless others.Show some respect

[hatchbizzle777]

It is my position that Elijah was more of a hypocrite than Minister Malcom X because Minister Malcom X had stated that after prison, because of his reformation as Muslim, he had remained chaste for two years until he married his wife Sister Betty X. Is it more righteous to call a reformed devotee a hypocrite, or to call a messenger of God a hypocrite for failing morally?

[bluballzzz]

what the hell are u talking about malcom whanted nothing to do with elijah and saw him as a negative influence on humanity the nation of islam are hypocrites and cowards thats why they killed him when one of those bigot bastards trys to talk to me in the street i tell them to shuv it up their racist asshole

[hatchbizzle777]

I don't see how you can call Minister Malcom X a hypocrite because he was reformed. Rather, it was the Honorable Elijah Muhammad who had been accused of serious moral misconduct. He had paternal lawsuits filed against him by at least two former secretaries. Granted, Minister Malcom X had been recovered from the trap of criminal life, but he had dedicated 12 years of his life in complete service to the Nation of Islam and was emotionally and morally disturbed when these allegations came to light

[BlacksAreBeautiful]

The real "hero" is The Honorable Elijah Muhammad...without him, there would have been no Malcolm...Elijah, gave him a voice, knowledge and a platform...he paid him back by being a hypocrite!!!!!!

[asweran]

No one needs a second figure in order for a voice or knowledge of their own. Martin Luther King did not need another man. Whats more troubling is not that you see Malcolm X as a hypocrite, it is that you don't see Elijah Muhammad as the hypocrite.

[BlacksAreBeautiful]

Sir/Mam, were it not for Elijah, its very likely Malcolm would have went back to his life of Pimping, Drug selling/using and robbing. He openly admits, that before Elijah, Malcolm had no interest whatsoever in rehabilitating while in jail. Even if you refuse to see that fact, it still remains a fact. As far as Elijah being a hypocrite, you can disagree with Elijah and his message all you want, its your right, but unlike Malcolm, Elijah was NEVER a hypocrite!!!

[asweran]

Are you sure, do you have any proof of how he was not a hypocrit?

[BlacksAreBeautiful]

sir, it is the responsibility of the person making the charge to provide proof...you asking me to prove that is like me asking you to prove you didn't steal something from the supermarket this past weekend. If I make that charge, then I have to provide proof to back it up....where is your proof??

[epicleptic]

i my self am a muslim, and only god knows and judges elijah but i became suspicious about his understanding of islam when he decided to "ban" muhammad ali from the practise of islam...

i would have thought that someone with that authority and position should know as a muslim, he cant decide what a person can belief. if i am wrong i apologise and ask someone to correct me please

[BlacksAreBeautiful]

Sir, I'm not sure how familiar you are with the NOI, but it was basically an Org, based on Islamic teachings. Elijah Muhammad NEVER banned anyone from doing anything, BUT if you broke one of the restrictive laws, you could be put out with sentences ranging from 30 days to life. Muhammad Ali, like Malcolm, and Like Farrakhan at one time was put out for a specified time, but at no time were they banned from practicing their religion. Elijah was not authorized to do that, nor would he try!

[olijeolinije]

Malcom is fucking legend..I wish I was born black:)

[Stiagra]

Please...why? Do you know what we go through?

[olijeolinije]

???

[defunition]

man I tell you

[defunition]

Man I tell you now, being a black man isnt easy. we go through things that no other race goes through, so be happy of what you are.

Proud black man

[Gaprielll]

and even if you where a black it will nit change what you are. Remember thet under the sky there is only one familiy. but most of us dont se eit that way. I am white and i am proud of MR. Malcolm, not becouse he is black, but becouse he is who he is. Befor he is black he is first of all a person. R.I.P Malcolm x

[tommybrown187]

i couldnt have said it more eloquently and sincere myself

[Gaprielll]

ok cool . what are you waiting for than...

[meaks88]

The american system produced the fact that this is not the case, and that most of the leaders in the past wanted us to fall and crumble in the hands of ourselves and others.

[Cwalkaaa]

that was a very ignorant statement you just said

[topdogg757]

Agreed! I wonder how long it will be when he'll be put into the same echelon as Dr. King has been posthumlously.

[HaloedG]

He won't. As long as the holidays and history is reflected to be told through the mainstream perspective, he won't.

Someone has to stand up and tell what his real message was. Most in the older generation only remember his making Whites quake in their boots and not his later message of solidarity and ambition for change and revolution.

[ewkeewke]

We are still having freedom taken away. They have us calling ourselves colored or of color again. They are labeling our children in school learning disabled. The same concept that goes back to slavery. They introduced the corrections as reverse discrimination. There is not such thing. A Black student is to give up the college seat if a White person does not get admitted in the 90 some percent set aside for them. We only get the remaining five or so percent set aside for minorities. Never ends.

[juicymango14]

Rest in peace brother Malcolm X. You are the best. We will never forget.

[29032002]

He was a nationalist. How could that be good. Martin Luther King dreamed of equality, not separation!

[topdogg757]

Say what you want about Malcolm X, he's considered one of the smartest men ever, by the majority. You mention being a nationalist, Dr. King, as was Malcolm X, were looked upon and labeled communists for not being "a compromising negro" by supporting an unjust war in Vietnam.

[29032002]

Smart? You know that a lot of evil men are / were smart. Einstein was smart, but he was a sexist. So was Socrates.

Malcolm x did drugs and prostitution. That doesn't seem smart to me. USA is strange. Adoring used-to-be-criminals. See 50 cent for example. He held guns for money, now he's rich because people LOVE him and his silly music.

X fought for better rights for the black people, but also spoke hate against white people too. That is nationalism and racism. You are or you are not. Not both

[topdogg757]

Yes, Malcolm X did drugs and alot of other negative things but there's this thing called TRANSFORMING! He transformed from a lifestyle of drugs, alcohol, and pimping to be of great value to those who needed it. Yes, he did speak out against racism in a very bold and eyecatching manner that attracted the attention of the CIA and FBI as a person to "eliminate" because they were afraid of a black messiah stirring up trouble. Research what Cointelpro was and it'll really open your eyes.

[29032002]

Ok, you need some "chaos" to stand out and catch some attention. Breaking the rules of the law is one, but the best way of chaos are speaking the hidden and forbidden words. That's what X did and it's ok. But still.. you have to be careful with those forbidden words. Saying the wrong words can destroy a lot.

I am not that good in english, but I hope you understand what I am trying to explain.

I'm just very negative on even the smallest form of racism and nationalism.

[bhav213]

i understand wot u say..an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind...but when ur in the position of a black man in the 50s and 60s it is no surprise that hatred and resentment boils up...their people had been slaves for centuries...they were nurtured to be white-haters because ultimately they WERE hated by the whites...cyclical spiral of hatred which means...racism has not disappeared..only the colour has changed

[29032002]

Look, I am a Turkish girl living in Belgium where hate against Turks and Marocs and all the other "muslims" is so big that things like searching for a job is so difficult, just because of our strange name.

That doesn't mean I have to hate the Belgian people. Some Turks do, but those Turks are soooo narrow minded. I know that there ARE Belgians that hate discrimination. Even if there are a few, I think of them, those people that give hate no part in their life, just like me.

[africaRBG]

you look at this from a very narrow perspective.

[AldinTheMad]

Malcom X didn't like any whites at first but later realised his mistake.

Nationalism: a group of lesbian feminists tried something similar in the '80s. Based on that here's what you'd get: 1) increased prejudices (prejudice can't survive close contact with the Other) 2) activists less concerned with doing tangible, practical things & more concerned with ideoligically policing their own members in case they aren't black enough 3) tackling other forms of oppression within the community unimportant

[Quicktaker]

MLK was an anti-capitalist,(thats against the American way of life) you should do your homework. King did not like America anymore then X. Plus, how could X be a NATIONALIST? you have to have a nation to be a NATIONALIST. HE was a liberator in my opinion, and maybe a black NATIONIST, but a nationist would be someone like Dick Chenney, your VP!

[bobbymarsh1]

you are correct and make some very valid points. Bro. Malcolm was a black nationalist not only here as a representative of blacks in america but africans abroad. He wanted to show the similarity in the struggle for justice. however, both did pointed to the hipocracy of america. King sought equality and they gave him integration.

[sunsetoranges]

Thanks for posting this...just finished reading the autobiography of Malcolm x...pure brilliance and fantastic....peace.

[willisstrokes]

[hijaabiforlife]

[topdogg757]

I'd love to hear what the martyrs of the past, ala Malcolm X, Dr. King, JFK say about the Bush administration.

[cammyicy23]

[teck9troublesome]
