How has Malcolm X contributed to the Afric-American people?
Negatives and Positives?
Malcolm's greatest gift to African people, and oppressed people all over the world was his example of what a psychologically strong, and spiritually disciplined and focused man can do once his mind is traned in on bringing an end to oppression against his people...
For Malcolm is not simply a hip, fly dressing ex-hustler making eloquent speeches, he is a master organizer and builder, who founded the Muhammad Speaks Newspaper, developed it's first photographs, and did it's first articles... He is the man who single-handedly organized at least half of the NOI's temples around the country, and held down the chief ministry in New York, Philadelphia, Washington, and all points in between, while being the National Spokesman for the organization...
He is Discipline, he is focus, and he is love for the Black Man and Woman of North America, yet he is all those things to all of us around the world, even those who might only have heard his voice, or saw his face in a picture... He talked the talk, and walked the walk, and that always the greatest example anyone can have...
Peace!
