malcolm x.
amazing how problems of yesterday are still the problems of today.
listening to mlk's speeches, and malcolm x's speeches just leaves obama's ringing hollow, and almost tripping over themselves.
what ever happened to great speakers?did they all get assassinated?
"the government has failed us. you can't deny that. any time you are in the 20th century, 1964, and you're walking around singing 'we shall overcome', the government has failed you.
this is part of what's wrong with you, you do too much singing.
today it is time to stop singing, and start swinging."
