This is a rare interview by Malcolm X that he did with a lady name Eleanor Fischer in 1961. In this interview he said that as black people we have to lift ourselves by our bootstraps, that's my first time hearing him use that term. You can listen to this interview by clicking on the link below. http://www.imkeepingup.com/2010/02/1960-interview-with-malcolm-x.html Malcolm X quote from that interview. Having an opportunity to ride either on the front or the back or in the middle of someone else's bus doesn't dignify you. When you have your own bus, then you have dignity. When you have your own school, you have dignity. When you have your own country, you have dignity.
When you have something of your own, you have dignity. But whenever you are begging for a chance to participate in that which belongs to someone else, or use that which belongs to someone else, on an equal basis with the owner, that's not dignity. That's ignorance.
The — if I may add, for instance, King and these others will say that they are fighting for the Negro to have je — equal job opportunity. How can a group of people such as our people, who own no factories, have equal job opportunities competing against the race that owns the factories?
The only way the two can have equal job opportunities is if black people have factories as, as well as white people have factories. And then w — bl — we can —employ whites or we can employ blacks, just like they can employ whites or they can employ blacks.
But as long as the factories are in the hands of the whites, the housing is in the hands of the whites, the school system is in the hands of the whites, you have a situation where the blacks are constantly begging the whites can they use this or can they use that. That's not any kind of equal — equality of opportunity, nor does it lend tow — toward one's dignity.To read the full transcript of this interview click on this link below. http://www.wnyc.org/articles/wnyc-news/2010/feb/11/remembering-malcolm-x-rare-interviews-and-audio/ Straight wisdom.

Malcolm X is right blacks need to own the bus company.
But first you have to put black people in that mindset.
LOL! Dayum! You just can't make this stuff up!
Are black Americans in the right frame of mind today?
Wait? I thought you didn't bash black Americans? I'm asking a damn question.

We need a real black leader today like Malcolm X, these so called black leaders today are teaching black people to be dependent on the government.

Will blacks have to hit rock bottom before they listen at what Malcolm X was saying. He clearly told us how to be successful as a people.
