Schooled By Youtube: In Memory of Malcolm X….

Unapologetic & Uncompromising

Learn about MALCOLM X’s Mission and Message to show that what we called a civil rights issue against “black citizens in America” was actually a HUMAN RIGHTS issue on African people that lived in America.

He understood that fighting to be included in a system that was never intended for blacks was fruitless and worked the remainder of his life to reconnect blacks back to Africa.

Yes Black Nationalism!!

But he was fully aware that for any of this to be accomplished we, as Africans in America, must put all differences of religion and ideologies behind us and FORM A UNITED FRONT!
