Brother Malcolm

"We declare our right on this earth...to be a human being, to be respected as a human being, to be given the rights of a human being in this society, on this earth, in this day, which we intend to bring into existence by any means necessary."
- Malcolm X



"The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that's power. Because they control the minds of the masses."
- Malcolm X



"I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole."
- Malcolm X





You can't separate peace from freedom because no one can be at peace unless he has his freedom.
-Malcolm X, Malcolm X Speaks, 1965




Sitting at the table doesn't make you a diner, unless you eat some of what's on that plate. Being here in America doesn't make you an American. Being born here in America doesn't make you an American.
-Malcolm X, Malcolm X Speaks, 1965

You show me a capitalist, and I'll show you a bloodsucker.
-Malcolm X




I believe in human beings, and that all human beings should be respected as such, regardless of their color.
- Malcolm X
