More quotes by Malcolm X
I'm for truth, no matter who tells it.
Malcolm X
You have a race problem that must be solved, or else you will alienate every non-white person on this earth within the next few years, or within the next few months.
Malcolm X
If you're born in America with a black skin, you're born in prison, and the masses of black people in America today are beginning to regard our plight or predicament in this society as one of a prison inmate.
Malcolm X
To me, political action involves making the politician who represents us know that he either produces or he is out, and he's out one way or another.
Malcolm X
Once negro community recognize it as such, they can adopt the same measures against the community that harbors the criminals who are responsible for this activity.
Malcolm X
Integration will not bring a man back from the grave.
Malcolm X
Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything. If you're a man, you take it.
Malcolm X
I had blind faith in him. My faith in Elijah Muhammad was more blind and more uncompromising than any faith that any man has ever had for another man. And so I didn't try and see him as he actually was.
Malcolm X
I believe that a psychological, cultural, and philosophical migration back to Africa will solve our problem.
Malcolm X
You have, you can only answer it this way: by turning it around. Can the negro - who is the victim of the system - escape the collective stigma that is placed upon all Negroes in this country?
Malcolm X
To tell a woman not to talk too much was like telling Jesse James not to carry a gun, or a hen not to cackle.
Malcolm X
I am a Muslim and . . . my religion makes me be against all forms of racism. It keeps me from judging any man by the color of his skin. It teaches me to judge him by his deeds .
Malcolm X
America just reaped what it had been sowing.
Malcolm X
The white man is by nature a devil and must be destroyed.
Malcolm X
I grew up in the country on a farm it was whenever someone said even that a snake was eating the chickens or bothering the chickens, we'd kill snakes. We never knew whether that was the snake that did it.
Malcolm X
Once I was, yes. But now I have turned my direction away from anything that's racist.
Malcolm X
I for one believe that if you give people a thorough understanding of what confronts them and the basic causes that produce it, they'll create their own program, and when the people create a program, you get action.
Malcolm X
No one should advocate any peaceful suffering to black people, unless the black - white man is going to practice the same kind of peaceful suffering.
Malcolm X
To me, the thing that is worse than death is betrayal.
Malcolm X
I could see from this, that perhaps if white Americans could accept the Oneness of God, then perhaps, too, they could accept in reality the Oneness of Man - and cease to measure, and hinder, and harm others in terms of their differences in color.
Malcolm X
