A Rare Recording of Malcolm X's The Ballot or the Bullet Speech

De: Malcolm X

Narrado por: Malcolm X

Malcolm X (born Malcolm Little, later Malik el-Shabazz; May 19, 1925-February 21, 1965) was an American Muslim minister and human rights activist who was a prominent figure during the civil rights movement of the 1950s and '60s. A spokesman for the Nation of Islam until 1964, he was a vocal advocate for Black empowerment and the promotion of Islam within the Black community. On February 21, 1965, he was assassinated in New York City. Three Nation members were charged with the murder and given indeterminate life sentences; in 2021, two of the convictions were vacated. Speculation about the assassination and whether it was conceived or aided by leading or additional members of the Nation, or with law enforcement agencies, has persisted for decades.

Ballot or Bullet

All the things he said about Democrats then, nothing have ever changed, it’s all hypocrisy up to date. Malcolm X the GOAT.

Still Relevant!

Such a good speech and very good quality as well! I also like the fact it takes place after he left “The Nation”. You can hear the enlightenment in his voice.
