"The Ballot or The Bullet" was a speech by Malcolm X mostly about black nationalism delivered April 12, 1964 in Detroit, Michigan. This speech is in the public domain. Originally obtained from the Vincent Voice Library at Michigan State University.

The transcript of this speech is now built into this youtube video. However, due to the recording quality, youtube's auto-sync loses it's place throughout the video. Clicking on the transcript button under video will allow you to follow along on your own however.

I've made the audio for this video and it's unedited transcript available here.

    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

    I agree. After a while it does get distracting.

    That high-pitched babble underneath his speech is REALLY distracting.
