That’s why I believe that the best way to celebrate Brother Malcolm’s 95th birthday on May 19, 2020 is to honor his role as a superb deliverer of knowledge.
This was probably the first time that those young Black folks had ever heard from a strong Pan-Africanist.
We of the Organization of Afro-American Unity (OAAU) realize that the only time the Black man in this country is given any kind of recognition or even listened to is when America is afraid of outside pressure or when she’s afraid of her image abroad.
So we saw that it was necessary to expand the problem and struggle of the Black man in this country until it went above and beyond the jurisdiction of the United States.”
“I point this out to you to let you know that when you are in Mississippi you are not alone…”
That was a caring, visionary, determined warrior and master teacher providing knowledge to those young Black people that’s why we salute and honor him on his birthday.
