Re: Malcolm X? Mr TheOne, explain this..
GM, MalcolmX wasn't born in the Arab world, he didn't grow up in the Arab psychology, he didn't understand "Arabic" as a language. Plus if you noticed although I'm sure Malcolmx knew about the black slavery in the Arab world he never mentioned it in any of his discourses, interviews etc, Why? Because he was at war at home against Kris and so for political reasons it was in his best interest and the interest of the NOI to speak positively about the Arab Muslim brotherhood and avoid every negative aspect of that part of the world. Had he mention Arab slave traders back then, or had he said Arabs call us Abeeds, believe me many AAs would not have joined the nation of Islam headed by Elijah Muhammad. Its not rocket science.  Previous Message HOW DID I MISS THIS? Mr TheOne wrote: "Masudin is like Malcolm X who got fed up with the White American racism and decided to join some other enslavers/racist ones in the Arab world...." HUH?! What are you talking about? Have you read Malcolm X's bio? Have you read any of the Malcolm X biographies? Why do you think Malcolm X was that stoopid and lacked knowledge of world racism & bigotry? What about you, what is your faith? I'm honestly asking because i'm curious. Thanks! LOL...btw, I don't think i'd describe maestro as being "ethnocentric", and if he is, in what sense? That one is off, way off!
