I agree. But I think that’s what made him so great to have that temperament. Tbh no black person in the 1960s owed anyone just a peaceful protest. As far as I’m concerned if you’ve been treated like absolute shit and as a second class citizen for 100+ years based on your race, you do whatever you have to do to get equal treatment. That’s why I don’t like how we’re taught in school how Malcolm x was some reactionary extremist. He was an intelligent person who just had a different viewpoint of getting the rights that his people were deprived of.
