Why can't the black man have a God? What's so wrong when a black man says his God will protect him form his white foe? If Jehovah can slay Philistines for the Jews, why can't Allah slay crackers for the so-called Negro?

More quotes by Malcolm X
History is a people's memory, and without a memory, man is demoted to the lower animals.
Malcolm X
[My half-sister] Ella and I always were much closer as basic types we're dominant people, and [my other half-sister] Mary has always been mild and quiet, almost shy.
Malcolm X
What Martin Luther King is doing is disarming the black people of America of their God-given right and of their natural right.
Malcolm X
Now, you integration-minded Negroes are trying to force yourselves on your former slave master, trying to make him accept you in his drawing room you want to hang out with his women rather than the women of your own kind.
Malcolm X
We cannot think of uniting with others, until after we have first united among ourselves... One can't unite bananas with scattered leaves.
Malcolm X
Anybody who rapes, and plunders, and enslaves, and steals, and drops hell bombs on people... anybody who does these things is nothing but a devil.
Malcolm X
[ Negro leaders] never let the white man know exactly what black people are thinking.
Malcolm X
If I go home and someone, and my child has blood running down her leg and someone tells me that a snake bit her, I'm going out and kill the snake. And when I find the snake, I'm not going to look and see if he has blood on his jaws.
Malcolm X
At the same time Reverend Galamison policy is intelligent enough where he can't be used to attack me.
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
An integrated cup of coffee isn't sufficient pay for four hundred years of slave labor.
Malcolm X
I have rarely talked to anyone about my mother, for I believe that I am capable of killing a person, without hesitation, who happened to make the wrong kind of remark about my mother. So I purposely don't make any opening for some fool to step into.
Malcolm X
Everything that came out of Europe, every blue-eyed thing, is already an American. And as long as you and I have been over here, we aren't Americans yet.
Malcolm X
America just reaped what it had been sowing.
Malcolm X
The mother is the first teacher of the child. The message she gives that child, that child gives to the world.
Malcolm X
The black man in America is the same as the Jews were in bondage under Pharaoh. We are strangers in a land that is not ours. We are rejected by this type of modern Pharaoh or pharohnic society.
Malcolm X
I'm a field Negro. The masses are the field Negroes. When they see this man's house on fire, you don't hear these little Negroes talking about 'our government is in trouble'. They say, 'The government is in trouble.'
Malcolm X
One of the tricks of the west is to use or create images, they create images of a person who doesn't go along with their views and then they make certain that this image is distasteful, and then anything that that person has to say from thereon, from thereon in, is rejected.
Malcolm X
The only minority in America that's asking for integration is the so-called Negro, primarily because he is inferior, not inherently inferior, but he's economically, socially, politically inferior.
Malcolm X
When the snakes out in that field begin to realize that if one of their members get out of line, it's going to be detrimental to all of them, they'll keep that, perhaps they'll then take the necessary steps to keep their fellow snakes away from my chickens or away from my children if the responsibility is placed upon them.
