okay i aint even going too lie; I am a white person a white person whom believes in black history strongly since age 8 told from my grandmother too me and how terrible how all races were treated just cause' they was not white? I dont think thats right at all people doing crap like that?

Okay and i didnt even know whom Malcom X was until a few weeks ago! 0.0

I think why people shut him a way so much is cause they didnt want the truth!

i dont think this man believed in violence unless needed too
