We end today’s show remembering his life and legacy with an excerpt of a speech Malcolm X gave at the Audubon Ballroom about half a year earlier called “By Any Means Necessary.”

You're nice.

'By any MEANS NECESSARY'!
I'll always remember this great motif.
R.I.P Brother Malcolm X (El Hajj Malik el - Shabazz) 🙏🏿
Yes indeed.
Live by it and Teach it.
We love Malcolm X in Africa, I love Malcolm X in South Africa. You are the son of African soil. May the ancestors of Africa be with you in paradise
Yours is one of, if not THE only news orgs that I've seen commemorate his birth, and remind us of his continued relevance. Keep up the superlative work!
They're the only major News media left in America as far as I know. Everyone else has quit all world news and any American topic like this that could possibly make their cash cow government look bad. Either they lie like Fox to your face or the rest who lie by omission. The rest are garbage.
They do it every year
Yes, but don't forget or overlook Urban View 126 XM radio. Please don't forget them.
@@MrCeora thanks for the tip. I tried XM when it came with my car free for a few months. And I'm so far in the sticks, the signal kept cutting out. Cell service is often out for huge areas around here. But it will be great for many others.
✌️❤️
Thanks, and of course, we know that WE keep the torch lit for him.
His love and light stills lives in the hearts of all who heard his message and we’re and still are inspired
as there can be no peace without Justice
and injustice is beating justice 99% to 1%. god help us all. we're all doomed.
@@markcross3492 Well, its hard not to share that perspective. Doom sure dominates headlines with millions of impressions a second. Given population growth, I sometimes wonder if there is more horror now than all the massacres of the last Epoch? Or even the 60's? What would Malcolm say if he were here today? Is it a full defeat, or some light streaming through the cracks? "by any means possible". Maybe possibilities to change our 'cultural story' will come through consciousness (common unifying state) vs morality (tribalism/nationalism/religion).
Well said and well OBSERVED.
RIP Malcolm X❤
Rest in Peace and Power Brother Malcolm.
R.I.P. Malcom X. He spoke the TRUTH
"The Constitution of the United States of America clearly affirms every American citizen the right to bare arms"
Not 🚫 if they're felons tho ..... The Constitution itself doesn't read that way but that's the 🐂 💩 we got goin on
Still relevant today✊🏽
@@SteveXNYC Yes he has a bunch of haters on social media as we speak they came out of the woodwork when I said that he would have been 98 on his birthday.
Yes absolutely CORRECT and true.
No shit because nothing's changed.
Indeed my brother ✊🏽
Thanks for spotlighting this... I believe the quintessential human rights issue on the planet is providing equal human rights to all men through the acknowledgement of American racism.
"to all men and women"? or "to all humans" maybe? Bad phrasing there. Hope to god you didn't mean "men" only, when your concerned with rights.
Though animals and plants, and all life, also deserve rights.
Happy Birthday Malcolm X 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤
Powerful words
Brilliant man. RIP Bro. Malcolm X.
A light yesterday and a light TODAY
Malcolm X was ahead of His Time!💯👏
He is needed today! Still relevant today! We are not free today! The year is 2023!
One of the best orators of all time! ✊
He had a choice - to die or fight.
Yeap Malcolm X was a great man did NOT really agree with him on Islam exactly but he made some powerful speeches and l guess black people had to learn what where their roots and belief systems when they where taken from Africa itself has slaves in order to heal and learn about their ancestors just like any nation or country around the world 🌍.
Black people have a right to learn their own history and where their ancestors came from.
@@gabrielmaroto18 You're got to be kidding me. Who's keeping YOU in chains in 2023? Or are you still incapable to escape, to quote Mr. X, the slave mentality?
One of the best speeches ever given in history point blank period
Thank you brother Malcolm. You changed many, many lives...
Malcolm was sick and tired, of being sick and tired. An intelligent man, he clearly knew the problem, and was advocating the best way to solve it quickly.
Amy, thank you for elevating this historic time. I was born in 63’. I think of my parents and how they were treated during this awful time. I also think of all the issues I’ve dealt with in my life and how Malcolm made it his life’s mission to better the lives of all people during and after his short life. Again ❤ thank so much Amy for shining a light on this historic time.
I’m white and I believe Malcolm is a martyred hero
Same here he loved his ppl and his message was not about hate but overcoming hate, but that wasn’t true of everyone around him
Yep, same
Im 13 and this is deep
Even if you didn't believe it, it would still be true
same. we must carry on what he started
RIP, Minister Malcolm X. ❤🙏🏽
My favorite revolutionary, forward looking and miles ahead in his outlook salute
There has never been a greater orator than Malcolm X.
Bro have you simply not heard other speeches
Lol c'mon man
He's def one of the greats, but MLK Jr gives me goosebumps and Obama is a great speaker too, and even people like JFK and Roosevelt were great speakers too
Adolf Hitler got quite a few people on his side
Or better human
✊🏾
May Almighty bless you a billion!
RIP Malcolm X, aameen 🤲🤲🤲❤❤❤
Happy Birthday, Malcolm 🙏
RIP El Hajj Malik el-Shabazz ✊
Rest In Power X♥️
I've been looking everywhere for this speech. Thank you
Love you Malcolm X Shabazz bc you loved us!!!
Well said, that made me emotional...Truly believe, "By Any Means Necessary" ✊🏾 Power To The People ✊🏾
I dont want no peace, I want equal rights and justice! Peace is a diploma you get in the cemetary!
-Peter Tosh
Profound. Salute. Much respect to this man.
Thank you, Amy!
Today i learned that malcom x is a major supporter of the second ammendment and the right of self preservation. Pretty well spoken.
He would be 98 today
He should have been 98 today.
@@mbowen67 Uncle Sam shortened his lifespan
@@mbowen67 Some people were saying that he was a CLOSET HOMOSEXUAL and wore women's shoes and clothes.
Self defense is no offence!
Malcolm X was brilliant! I admire this man so much! He spoke truth regardless what happened to him. 💪
Great man Malcolm X
Rest in power .!!! You may might giant .!!! Black America stand together .!!!
“The white liberal differs from the white conservative only in one way. The liberal is more deceitful, more hypocritical than the conservative.” Malcolm X.
This has aged well
Careful, Brother! Democracy Now! is not going to present or want to hear anything from the several speeches/comments he made exposing the White DemonRats for what they are: deceitful, hypocritical, the most untrustworthy creature in the Western Hemisphere (this last description to the best of my memory).
As soon as I saw this, I was like someone put this comment down. Mind-boggling that they would play a clip of Malcolm X who criticize these very people
Both are demons
@@byanymeansnecessary9329🤡
i love malcom x
My favorite black hero - may his memory be with all Americans forever.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X. Two great people I wish I could have met.
RIP> Still struggling!
*"MALCOM X IS THUNDER FROM HEAVEN! AMEN!"*
You are great Man always Malcolm X❤🎉
Happy birthday brother X!

His Last Year on This Earth was His Finest Hour. Heaven is for Heroes, May He R.I.P.

Malcom x said if a white man put his hands on you you take him to the cemetery Martin said no you take him to his court and Malcom said I will do that but if that don’t work then I strike back by any means necessary rip Malcom

To me, this Man here is the holy one...
" you know what you are, you're an x slave, " remember that.
Ms Goodman, please have Malcolm's youngest daughter on your show and ask her who was responsible for her father's death.
Kenya is taking these actions now in 2023 Malcolm's Wisdom from 1964 still rings relevant today & the Western Hemisphere is declining
Malcolm x(Omawale) Nigeria loves you
B1!
🙏🏾🤞🏾
Greatness gone way too soon. Just think of what he could have done and helped his ppl accomplish.
White people must be protected. For the sake of the community.
!awesome
❤❤❤❤❤❤
If only more had changed since then.
P it kind of brings a tear to mine because him along with many others not just specifically black but they all played a role in to dictating our society today and warping our future into something different remember my political science professor told me is the uncomfortable conversations that may change
الله يرحمك ويغفر لك
❤❤❤❤❤
@2:46 Malcolm X still knew the street jargon "that's a drag"
These are his own words, no carbon copy of anyone elses. RIP MX
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Spoken like a GARVEYITE! 🔥🔥🔥
By any means necessary
