What in the hey is that doing here? Yeah, he still matters, sort of like the bubonic plague.

Thanks; I checked the link and watched several of the videos.
It's no surprise this man was assassinated. He was bright and dangerous.
Divide and conquer...still applies today.

I tried the first video. Here is my response to the thoughtful words of the bright and promising young leader so tragically slain.

Malcolm X Still Matters

You are so right. Malcolm X Still Matters, perhaps more today than ever.
Below are some quotes I thought you might appreciate:
“I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.”
“If you’re not willing to die for it, put the word ‘freedom’ out of your vocabulary.”
“Of all our studies, history is best qualified to reward all research.”
And my personal, all-time, favorite.
“I believe that there will ultimately be a clash between the oppressors and those who do the the oppressing. I believe that there will be a clash between those who want freedom, justice, and equality for everyone and those who want to continue the system of exploitation. I believe that there will be that kind of clash, but I don't believe it will be based on the color of the skin...”
"When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living together in society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it." - Frederic Bastiat

I like that last quote too.
A good friend of mine told me that I should read his book, years ago. Sorry to say I haven't. I will try to make an effort to study up on him in the future.

But how did he mean those quotes? Understand Chairman Mao came up with some beauts too.
Mr. X. Ecrable cheered the death of like 150 white Southerners in a plane crash because they represented, according to the liberal dementia that still reigns today, the absolute quintessence of human evil.
