But depending on whom's civil rights are attacked won't these laws be dissolved? No they are not figments of your imagination, but when federal gov't decides to, they do what they want even if that includes destroying "homegrown terrorist" like the civil right movement will have people falling into a category under. MLK was a great man i give him that, but the problem is much more complex than black and white children holding hands and drinking from the same water hole.Originally Posted by bijald0331
Hold up. MLK was going to get black people killed? You don't think the US Govt would have squashed the NOI movement like a bug if they started acting violently? Where is the logic in your statement?
Civil Rights Act, Voting Rights Act, 24th Amendment are all just figments of my imagination I guess. Can't believe MLK is being denigrated like this
Malcolm X himself renounced his work in the NOI. He was so smart he could honestly admit his mistakes. That's why I respect even more.
Malcom X realized that he was too much of an individual/ independent thinker to subscribe to another set of dogmatic principles. He just was able to contrast his upbringing in a christian country with teachings of NOI even though he realized after time that it was just another head on the beast. I believe his life is testament if you look at him objectively and not solely based off of is NOI persona.
