I agree that minorities do seem to get away with things that whites would not be able to, but a swastika is not the same as Malcom X. Although Malcom X was a racist who did hate whites and there are many militant blacks, he wasn't really the same as Hitler. Hitler had millions of innocent jews killed because he believed that the white race (not just white, but Western and Northern Europeans) is the natural born ruler of the human race. I think that blacks who wear Malcom X clothing are very racist. Martin Luther King Jr., on the other hand, was a peaceful representative of equal rights for African Americans.

Wow. Malcom X compared to Hitler... Last I checked, Malcolm X wasn't responsible for a genocide!
But anyway, I didn't know Malcolm X had clothes out on the market. And why do you feel that you have to prove anything to us? We don't care how many friends of other races you have. You're entitled to your opinion. Don't be afraid.

u . s . a . of america feeds into what the media says quite of looking into the guidance for themselves. So, it relatively is a mix of lack of expertise and being defective. some human beings do exactly no longer care. My opinion of an African-American is somebody who can hint their ancestry lower back to Africa. You, my buddy, i'd evaluate an African-American, yet no longer somebody like me through fact i do no longer understand what area of Africa via ancestors got here from. that's an umbrella term to cover any and each guy or woman of African diaspora, while in reality that's totally in superb. I have no ties to Africa whatsoever, so i won't be able to say i'm an African American. confident, you're an African-American.

Sweetie, Malcolm X never tried to eliminate a whole race of people.
He might have gotten under some peoples skin, but when he left the room, everyone was still alive and well. DO NOT try to minimize the evil that was Adolf Hitler.

Malcom X wore rather nice clothes, usually a suit and tie.
I think if a white kid chooses to wear a swastika, it is his buisness. The swastika, like many symbols, has many meanings and we live in a country that garuntees us free speech and expression. Might not like it, but we also live in a country where its ok to burn its own flag.

Because Malcolm X didn't kill millions of people, and because if we say that they are wrong for wearing it, we may be accused for oppressing them. In some countries it is acceptable to wear swatstikas. In Asia, it's a symbol of good luck and prosperity. It is found all over the place in Korea.

Malcolm X never preached killing white people. He believed in the right to defend ones self. While he was with the Nation of Islam he was very racist, but never condoned needless violence against whites. What he preached could go for white people as well, If your attacked you have the right to protect yourself "By Any Means Necessary".

i asked a question and got labelelled a racist...........good luck getting a decent answer (especially from some of the answerers on here who are hell bent on answering race questions or asking the same). My answer is that we have been set to fear the black race. I personally know black friends who HATED so called "equal oppportunity" and any black who thought they were pathetic enough to take a job under those circumstances. I am not racist and am disgusted with those who would call me so. I am proud of anyone in this world who rises over hardship and carries on and disgusted with the ancestors of slaves who USE their great great grandparents as an excuse.

You are quite possibly on acid. Civil rights and the third reich are quite different. As different in fact as Margaret Cho and George Bush. Don't try to lean on your "black and mexican friends" as an excuse. You are frighteningly misinformed.
