It does not SAY that Malcolm X considered himself a civil rights leader! SurllWhere does it say that Malcolm X called himself a civil rights leader?
It says it here:
"... Despite his caustic criticisms of King, however, Malcolm nevertheless identified himself with the grass-roots leaders of the southern civil rights protest movement."
Besides your reading woes, civil rights are not mutually exclusive from human rights, at least Malcolm X understood this; in other words; you cannot fight for human rights without simultaneously fighting for civil rights
"We must continue to internationalize our philosophies and contacts toward assuming full human rights which include all the civil rights appertaining thereto. With complete understanding of our heritage as Afro-Americans, we must not do less.

That's your evidence?! Lol Don't quit your day job. You will never make it as a prosecutor!!! Talk about my reading skills?! Lmao. It said he identified with the leadership of the civil rights movement!!! Don't even try it.Because at Destee.com, folk have that right, as well as those who wish to participate in the "peanut gallery" without entering the conversation.

Here is my evidence to the contrary, Program of the OAAU, General terminologies, first sentence, third paragraph, "The exclusive ethnic quality of our unity is necessary for self-,preservation." I see you convenient ly overlooked this part and don't forget Malcolm was murdered on the very day he was on stage to deliver the Program, February 21, 1965. Basically it would have been his last will and testament, politically speaking if you will.Where does it say that Malcolm X called himself a civil rights leader?
