We are reprinting below snippets from recent speeches made by Malcolm X since he left the muslim 'Nation of Islam! movement. We do this because we think it likely they have not been printed in the press, which mostly confines itself to details about the more extreme and bizarre points of his policy, He is still young 24; although he is still a muslim, has time to develop — we think these extracts show that he is doing so. Whilst the 'Black Muslims! are regardcd as ‘cranky nuisances! and potentially dangerous by the white racialists, Malcolm X's break with them, and his adoption of definite agitational policies (i.e. massive voter registration drives,etc.)likely to appeal to a wider audicnce than just muslims, plus his ability and reputation, constitutes more danger.
