Product Description

From hustling, drug addiction and armed violence in America's black ghettos Malcolm X turned, in a dramatic prison conversion, to the puritanical fervour of the Black Muslims. As their spokesman he became identified in the white press as a terrifying teacher of race hatred; but to his direct audience, the oppressed American blacks, he brought hope and self-respect. This autobiography (written with Alex Haley) reveals his quick-witted integrity, usually obscured by batteries of frenzied headlines, and the fierce idealism which led him to reject both liberal hypocrisies and black racialism.

Customer Reviews

I am not worthy
I must say I feel rather humble in my attempt to review this autobiography, hence the brevity of my Review. However I cannot sufficiently stress how the account of Malcolm X's life has given me as a native African (and gives the reader regardless of ethnic background) a crucially important Sociological, Philosophical, Political, Islamic and Pan African insight into African American culture and its' shaping in historical context.

Changed my Life . . .
Simply put, this book changed the way I behave, the way I see & interpret things & basically my entire perspective of social & religious philosophy. That's all.

Black Muslim : All White is NOT Alright
If there is one book of worthy inspiration, guidance
and careful detour, AWAY from Wicked Racism Fascism,
it could be

The Autobiography of Malcolm X (TAO M.X)

penned by one of the most Thoughtful Soulful Beings
to ever live in North America :

Malcolm X

Someone who, like Mahatma Gandhi, was gunned down
like Mahatma Gandhi, Dr. K., JFK and many, many other
righteous martyrs, living in opposition to The Evil Empire.

About half the book is an account by the biographer Alex Haley
about his ordeal in creating the account, and the other half
is the account itself. The word "Negro" is used quite often.

The most interesting parts of this book were M.X views about
world history, according to the instructors of M.X, such as
THEM (The Hon. Elijah Muhammad) who spoke of black history vs
white wash history, such as the possible existence of Atlantis
and a Big Head White Devil, Lucifer, whose cruel persecution
of the Littels Peoples possibly invoked The Fury of Allah and
The Angels, to destroy Atlantis, a possible real event of
great destructive magnitude, still hidden from the masses
because "Knowledge is Power" and Human elites use Ignorance
in attempted total human rule over Mankind Nature.

So TAO M.X is a book of alternate perspectives, the type book
Human elites would want hidden from The People, because of
its truthful investigative admissions and revelations...

Such as

1. Inter racial sex business (pimping, wife games, etc)

2. Chains of slavery caused by drugs (alcohol) and brain wash,
constant insane affirmations to completely false and mistaken
"popular" dogmas and rhetoric, that have little if any basis in
fact, and are used to enslave Mankind to ruthless diabolical
Human value systems

and

3. Human wars such as the Vietnam War, a meat grinder of
extreme hypocrisy, that destroyed the lives and families of many
of North America's Black African Youth, Nature's Sacred Sons,
born into poverty and despair in EuroRussian invaded,
conquered and dominated North America.

I offer these reasons for any caring reader
to obtain this fine work of conscience and empowerment:

1.

At various points of my younger life, I could actually "hear"
the speeches of Great Black Leaders, such as M.X and Dr. K. via
a Third Ear of psychic sense, and so heard these Great Leaders
raging against Wicked White Ways... from a far distance...

TAO M.X was written by one of these great Black Leaders...
of all time.

2.

Also there was a point in my life when
a fine young Black Muslim I knew was murdered,
perhaps to forbid me from experiencing
the Righteousness of Islam:

The person was serving in the US military, and very much in credit, avoided the Evils of White Poison (Alcohol), White Smoke (Tobacco) and other Wicked White Ways, and always seemed to be a fine very decent person, but then "disappeared".

Several months later his submerged body was located
underwater at a nearby bridge.

Cause of Death : Gunshot to the Head.

To this day I claim this murder to be a DELIBERATE
attempt to prevent me, and others, from coming to Love
and Know the Beauty of Islam, "The Other Side" of Life,
and anthing that would threaten the Evil Empire.

TAO M.X is partially about Black Islam and could reveal
some of the background to possible massive suppression
of Black Islam in the USA and elsewhere.

3.

When People are forcefully impressed into poverty and despair,
and build dreams, hopes and lives of caring sharing INSIDE,
then these People acquire Power GREATER than ruling Human power...

And Divine Beings, living as descendants of African slaves in
North America, certainly have/had plenty of this Power...

TAO M.X is an excellent expression of that Power:

It can be a book of empowerment, liberation and discipline via
Righteousness, Conscience and Struggle as written by Malcolm X.

But the reader should keep in mind that many Black Slaves
were originally captured and thrown into slavery by
"Moslem" slave traders:

For every White Abraham Abolitionist there were hundreds,
possibly thousands, of Black Abraham Abductors, attacking
African organic villages, societies of natural harmony,
and converting the African People, as a commodity,
into Money the Racism Religion holds Sacred...

African Black Slavers, traitors, invaders and deniers
of Pagan Natural Sacred Africa, followers of Islamic Judaism,
the ruling circle of Slavery, in monetary partnership with
Christian Judaism.

In my Soul, I give TAO M.X Five Stars,
but due to murderous Moslem relations
with a blood thirsty human religion,
can only give it Three Stars.

Praise Be Malcolm X and all Freedom Fighters !

Long Live Liberty !
