MANENO YA MALCOLM X

Ni miaka 40 toka kuuawa kwa shujaa mtetezi wa haki na usawa wa binadamu, Malcolm X. Haya ni baadhi ya maneno toka kinywani mwake:

"The Negro revolution is controlled by foxy white liberals, by the Government itself. But the Black Revolution is controlled only by God." Speech, Dec. 1, 1963, New York City.

"I for one believe that if you give people a thorough understanding of what confronts them and the basic causes that produce it, they'll create their own program, and when the people create a program, you get action."

"Concerning nonviolence, it is criminal to teach a man not to defend himself when he is the constant victim of brutal attacks."

"We are nonviolent with people who are nonviolent with us."

"If violence is wrong in America, violence is wrong abroad. If it is wrong to be violent defending black women and black children and black babies and black men, then it is wrong for America to draft us, and make us violent abroad in defense of her. And if it is right for America to draft us, and teach us how to be violent in defense of her, then it is right for you and me to do whatever is necessary to defend our own people right here in this country." Speech, Nov. 1963, New York City
