—“Once Black youth began to approach the ideas of Malcolm X it became necessary to destroy what he stood for. Once Black youth began to approach the ideas of Malcolm X it became necessary to destroy the man’s image that produced those ideas… if Malcolm were alive today he’d be a political prisoner and we wouldn’t be here having a discussion about {sic} his life… because the political prisoners we have today get no support…”
“The Many Sides of Malcolm Part I” by Melki
“The Many Sides of Malcolm” represents the original “Documixtory” done for “Black World Report,” an online radio newsmagazine of The Black World Today and the NNPA, the Black Press of America. It includes speeches from Malcolm (El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz), and commentaries from now-ancestors Dr. Betty Shabazz, Dr. John Henrik Clarke and Alex Haley.
Produced in 2001, it pulls audio from the first Malcolm X International Conference in New York City in 1990.
If you are a fan of Malcolm or one who studies history, you will enjoy this fully. Click here to hear the program.
