Malcolm X would be 83 today-by any means necessary speech!!!

Malcolm X, May 19, 1925 -- February 21, 1965

We end today's program with a tribute to Malcolm X. He was born eighty-three years ago today on May 19th, 1925. He was assassinated on February 21, 1965, as he spoke before a packed audience in Harlem's Audubon Ballroom. He was just thirty-nine years old. This is an excerpt of a speech Malcolm X gave at the Audubon Ballroom about half a year earlier. It's called "By Any Means Necessary." [includes rush transcript]

The Audubon Ballroom is where the angel of death met Malcolm, although i do believe Malcolm knew he had a meeting with him. I agree with almost all of Malcolm's speeches, and i believe that people who disagree with government or the localized region where racism or unfairness occurs, have the right to establish themselves as free citizens wherever they may choose, without paying taxes or following the laws of an oppressive government. This goes for everywhere, as well as the U.S.

We need to take these words very seriously. I'm afraid that before too long we might find ourself in a literal struggle to keep our freedoms so we should absorb the lessons of people like Malcolm NOW!

I find Malcolm X absolutely riveting. I wonder why his speeches thrill me so even though I am white. I guess I love it when a besieged people stands up and says NO NO MORE...it's over and I am taking control of my own destiny. He was inspiring and an extraordinarily strong speaker.

THANK YOU!!!

I also must add that the "African slave traders" in the West of Africa are not black and do not considered themselves black but Arabs. Those tribes were mostly TUAREG or dark skinned arabic Moors who could pass for black but are indeed ARABS!!!!

@goyavesETmangues

The only reason why mullattos kidnapped Africans to sell them was because Caucazoid devils from both sides of the planet were providing a demand for them. If there was no demand, there would be no slavery. It wasn't as if those half-castes kidnapped Africans and were begging the devils to buy them. No. And these racist crackers on youtube and these chicken pecking, uncle tom, handkerchief heads keep believing the lie that Africans were 50% responsible for slavery.

I will NEVER EVER EVER understand how it is IMPOSSIBLE to have a video about black people on youtube without those RACIST RATS harassing us. We must be doing something good since those cunts are obsessed with us

.

BLACK PEOPLE are the ALPHA and the OMEGA of their shitty lives. We are the ONLY people that massively stood up to their barbary while Latinos and Asians were keeping quiet at home

I am more than fed up with the disgusting falacy of white euro-centrist history: slavery happened because blacks sold blacks. This is one of the fattest lie EVER. NOT true. If it happened, it was on the smallest scale possible. Most of the black being sold were by people who considerd themselves ARABS but would be mistaken as blacks by European like MOORS on the Western coast.

The over-whelming majority of slaves were KIDNAPPED!!! This is UNFORGIVABLE

Now GTFOH racist KUNT
