Have you ever had the unfortunate experience of being
around a parent abusing there child? Not simply disciplining them but, outright
abusing them for no just cause or real reason. I have not seen this up-close but I could
imagine it is a horror to watch. Child abuse has a strange an ire resemblance to
1960’s America. Again I wasn’t there to witness this time period up-close but I
can imagine and from stories from what I learned it was not a site I would
wanted to see. America being the parent and the Negro in America being the child,
the child could fight back and when they do it could turn into an explosive
situation. In an interview “We are Living in a Police State” Malcolm X speaks about
how police feel they can abuse Negros, take whatever measures necessary to
sub-due the Negro and keep them in check. These actions are causing Negros to
harbor animosity for the police whom are supposed to be protecting them and
keeping them safe. In another speech “There’s a Worldwide Revolution Going On’ Malcom
X speaks about him trying to enter France and being turned away. He talks about
the linking of varios colored people. And that it’s not just in America is all
over, it’s not just fighting the American power structure but the whole western
system of oppression.
