Title: My philosophical theory on why Malcolm X died.
Post by: infinite59 on May 17, 2002, 11:41:50 AM
The world has a certain speed.  The Earth plods along slowly.  A tree can only grow at a fixed speed, you can water it, and talk to it, and make it move a little quicker, but you can not make a change to drastic, if you try to yank it too hard, the branches will stretch too far, and break.

Malcolm X wasn't ahead of his time when he was with the NOI.  However, when he stepped outside of the Nation of Islam, and took his trip to Mecca, I believe he began to elevate himself to the level of a modern day prophet.  Watch or read any of his speaches as evidence of this.  The man fell out of balance with the earth, and man could not keep up.  He was killed, and he is now a martyr, enjoying his high place in the kingdom of God.  Peace.

Yeah but that's Infinite's theory

He was speaking truth, making drastic changes - people didn't like it - he died

Some say Malcolm went through more changes then Doug Street in Wendell Harris's extraordinary film "Chameleon Street"

I say, they weren't changes, but like that Linkin Park cat raps on "It's Goin Down" it was.... "A logical progression on a timeline."  Malcolm grew like a rose from concrete, into the most complete individual the Earth has seen since Ghandi, he was out the same mold as Ghandi, earlier in his carear his was strangled in his nationalistic garb, but he grew out of that style, and into a more global outfit.  

Malcolm, before he died, was in the process of combining forces with the Muslim community in the Middle East, his black brothers in Africa, and powerul members of the United Nation.  With that political force, black oppression within the states would have ended in less then 10 years, just like how apartied came and went in less than a decade in Africa.

Thank you for the quote Trauma, like George Bush is a symbol for the white male, budwieser guzzling flag-waving, hard hat wearing bigot, you my friend are a poster child for compassion, enthusiasm, loyalty, sincearity, brotherhood; a true nationalist for your people.  

Never listen to those bitter cynics who attempt to chastise you and make you out to be a bohemiam anarchist, a misleader, a trickster.  You turn tricks for no one my friend, and the greatest trick you every turned was submitting to the will of God, and of the efforts you poured into your church of latter day saints, you will be rewarded with compound interest.  Peace.

Political Gangsta, if you're using sarcasm, it's above me... so I'll just say thanks for all the compliments, but I don't agree with your portrayal of George bush.

Technizzle, I didn't say 1 thing about Malcolm X, I think he was a great guy, I'm just not sure if he was the most complete individual since Ghandi.

Nice theory. Malcolm was/is someone to marvel, I have maximum respect for what he did and what he tried to achieve through his faith. I'm no muslim, but I think his influence is extremely powerful. I just wish that NOI realised how their early teachings were 'wrong' before he was killed, they could of done some much more together.

Malcolm wasn't a prophet.  If I said he was, then I must of made a mistake.
