The Complete Malcolm X on DVD: http://malcolmxfiles.blogspot.com/

Twenty-two million black victims of Americanism are waking up and they're gaining a new political consciousness, becoming politically mature. And as they become -- develop this political maturity, they're able to see the recent trends in these political elections. They see that the whites are so evenly divided that every time they vote the race is so close they have to go back and count the votes all over again. And that...which means that any block, any minority that has a block of votes that stick together is in a strategic position. Either way you go, that's who gets it. You're -- You're in a position to determine who will go to the White House and who will stay in the dog house. You're the one who has that power. You can keep Johnson in Washington D.C., or you can send him back to his Texas cotton patch. You're the one who sent Kennedy to Washington. You're the one who put the present Democratic Administration in Washington D.C. The whites were evenly divided. It was the fact that you threw 80 percent of your votes behind the Democrats that put the Democrats in the White House.

When you see this, you can see that the Negro vote is the key factor. And despite the fact that you are in a position to -- to be the determining factor, what do you get out of it? The Democrats have been in Washington D.C. only because of the Negro vote. They've been down there four years, and they're -- all other legislation they wanted to bring up they brought it up and gotten it out of the way, and now they bring up you. And now, they bring up you. You put them first, and they put you last, 'cause you're a chump, a political chump.

In Washington D.C., in the House of Representatives, there are 257 who are Democrats; only 177 are Republican. In the Senate there are 67 Democrats; only 33 are Republicans. The Party that you backed controls two-thirds of the House of Representatives and the Senate, and still they can't keep their promise to you, 'cause you're a chump. Anytime you throw your weight behind a political party that controls two-thirds of the government, and that Party can't keep the promise that it made to you during election time, and you're dumb enough to walk around continuing to identify yourself with that Party, you're not only a chump, but you're a traitor to your race.

And what kind of alibi do they come up with? They try and pass the buck to the Dixiecrats. Now back during the days when you were blind, deaf, and dumb, ignorant, politically immature, naturally you went along with that. But today as your eyes come open, and you develop political maturity, you're able to see and think for yourself, and you can see that a Dixiecrat is nothing but a Democrat in disguise.

You look at the structure of the government that controls this country; it's controlled by 16 senatorial committees and 20 congressional committees. Of the 16 senatorial committees that run the government, 10 of them are in the hands of Southern segregationists. Of the 20 congressional committees that run the government, 12 of them in the -- are in the hands of Southern segregationists. And they're going to tell you and me that the South lost the war.

  • @xpandergt What have the perublicans done? . What does Clarence Thomas do for the black people- helps lock huge number in concentration prisons.

  • @RothdeMan I'd like to remember thurgood Marshall, the etraordinary supreme court justice for the work he did . Coming up, I thought he was the great man.

  • "YOU'RE NOT ONLY A CHUMP BUT YOU'RE A TRAITOR TO YOUR RACE!!!" Holy Jesus!

  • OBAMA IS THE BITCH OF ZIONIST ILUMINATTI SECT , MALCOM X WAS  THE REAL, LEADER OF THE WORLD HIS WORDS ARE WORKING EVERYDAY.

  • I luv obama but malcolm would've been a great first black 100% black president ...

    Think of the changes he would've made back then

  • @CaptNewAmerica Then bring it, CHUMP!

  • @kyokogodai, Frankly Dumbass, to really know what Mr. X was speaking about you have to go even deeper than the so-called "branches" of the US Government. The real political power does not rest in any of these branches, nor do they rest in the Repubs or Dems, they are just fronts in a much larger game. Real power is in who controls the military, natural resources, gold, oil etc. Obama can give 200 speeches, but 4 blacks 2 truly gain power, we have 2 unite across borders & obtain land.= Bloodshed

  • @lgvereor I must disagree with your explaination. Jesus was of Middle Eastern decent (meaning that his people came from that part of the world). The only way Jesus would have had a lighter skin color, is if his family line had mixed blood. That is something that He did not have! He came from the line of David, which is traced directly back to Isaac and Abraham. No chance of fail skin, at all.

  • @CaptNewAmerica You sir (or madame) are one of those chumps Malcom was speaking about. You blame the Repbulicans, and yet for the first two years of his term, Obama and the Democrats controled the entire Legislative and Executive branches of the US Gov. That is exactly what Malcom X is speaking about, in this exerpt. Yes, a chump you are!

  • Malcom X had much truth, in this part of his speech (I cannot comment on the rest of it, not having heard it). He was totally correct, for that time, concering Negro voters. However, he is totally correct about ALL voters of today. Democrat or Republican.....they are just different breeds of the same animal. And WE are the chumps!
