The Autobiography of Malcolm X

by Malcolm X

“Brother,” he said to me, “do you realize that some of history’s greatest leaders never were recognized until they were safely in the ground!”

“If Malcolm X were not a Negro, his autobiography would be little more than a journal of abnormal psychology, the story of a burglar, dope pusher, addict and jailbird—with a family history of insanity—who acquires messianic delusions and sets forth to preach an upside-down religion of ‘brotherly’ hatred.”)

Perhaps if Malcolm X hadn’t died, this is what his autobiography would’ve been seen as to the white public.
