James Baldwin Quotes
When Malcolm X, Who Is Considered The Movement's Second-in-command, And Heir Apparent, Points Out That The Cry Of "violence" Was Not Raised, For Example, When The Israelis Fought To Regain Israel, And, Indeed, Is Raised Only When Black Men Indicate That They Will Fight For Their Rights, He Is Speaking The Truth. The Conquests Of England, Every Single One Of Them Bloody, Are Part Of What Americans Have In Mind When They Speak Of England's Glory. In The United States, Violence And Heroism Have Been Made Synonymous Except When It Comes To Blacks, And The Only Way To Defeat Malcolm's Point Is To Concede It And Then Ask Oneself Why This Is So.
