Malcolm X’s grandson, El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz, says that Blacks are murdered with impunity in the United States because the system is unjust, Press TV reports.
In an exclusive interview with Press TV on Monday, Shabazz commented on the murder of Black teenager Trayvon Martin, saying, “There are hundreds of Black Americans who are being murdered in the United States every year with impunity. And police officers serve no time. They always get off.”
Shabazz said this occurs because there is institutionalized racism in the United States.
“The United States has more people incarcerated than anywhere else in the world. It has more people incarcerated than China, and China has the most people in the world,” he noted.
Shabazz stated that although a minority of the people of the United States are Black, in prisons the majority of the people are Black and Hispanic. “And in these institutions people are forced to work for pennies on a dollar.”
And according to the US Constitution, slavery has been abolished, except for people who are serving time in penal institutions, Shabazz noted.
Elsewhere in his remarks, he said that as long as there are upper, middle, and lower classes in the United States, slavery will exist.
Shabazz also asserted that the US president is a puppet, and a small group of people control everything in the United States.
He went on to say, "My grandfather once equated revolution to a forest fire. And he stated that the goal of the revolution was that like a forest fire… that ravishes the forest completely. He said that is the goal of the revolution.”
“We should take down the system completely, and set up a new system of our own, which is more just,” he added.
If the system is not taken down completely, people of color will always remain on the bottom socioeconomic strata of the United States, he observed.
Commenting on the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Shabazz said Muslims were not the culprits.
“Muslims didn't do 9/11. They had nothing to do with 9/11,” he stated.
He added, “If you make research you'll see everything that was utilized in 9/11 pointed back to the United States --- the flight training, the visas, the planes they used, everything came from the United States.
“Muslims cannot take such action against civilians. And anybody who would take such actions against civilians is not a Muslim.
“And the people who were involved in 9/11 were agents of the United States, the CIA or whatever other three letter organizations they have in this country.”
In an apparent reference to the concept of leaderless resistance, he said, “If I can't identify an essential leadership or a governing body, I have a problem with that.”
He also expressed doubt about the authenticity of the Occupy movement in the United States and uprisings in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, and Syria.
“My grandfather once stated that you should never join a movement unless you are completely aware what that movement is about because a lot of the time we have outside forces that orchestrate those movements and get us to do things which we would not ordinarily do,” he stated.
Another two-bit race hustler chimes in ... But that guilt rag done wrung dry.
Ummm, that would be because they commit violent crimes...
Hey *******, go back to Africa and do that. It will make a lot of people very happy.
And that’s also because China, whatever its flaws may be, does not have a subculture that teaches rampant disrepect for education and hard work, and therefore does not have a vast pool of wastrels incapable of and unwilling to earn a decent living.
Actually, this is not insanity. This guy is following the basic tenets of Critical Race Theory which has been taught in schools for decades. He is following the script. Obama, Holder, this guy are all on the same page and their master blue print is critical race theory, See: http://www.teapartytribune.com/2012/03/27/according-to-critical-race-theory-is-zimmerman-a-white-hispanic-or-is-obama-a-black-white-man/
Most blacks are murdered by other blacks. This is true. But even more to the point, since he’s lying about profiling and interracial murder, is that more blacks kill whites than whites kill blacks, by far. The statistics vary slightly, but I have seen 18 to 1(blacks killing whites) a lot. I’ve seen higher rates. The rapes rates are even higher (black on white). If anyone is targeting race, it’s black criminals targeting white victims. Why doesn’t this matter to anyone? Blacks are app 12% of the population, the maynem they foment upon whites is all out of proportion. Murder and rape are the most heinous acts.
Just a shot at the title.....
Blacks are murdered with impunity in US, Malcolm X’s grandson says
Not with impunity. Numbers show that black people are more likely to be murdered by black people than white people. If one extrapolates that perception to criminality and demographic density, it also says something about the number of versus white people in prisons.
All this amongst a general drop in the national crime rate, with the largest drops occurring in states and municipalities where the right to keep and bear arms is (hypocritically) allowed.
The things ya see walking the planet!
Critical Race Theory (CRT) rearing it’s ugly head again. The Constitution has been slandered and libeled in some circles for too long. (Can one slander/libel a document?)
Yeah, mostly by their own so-called "brothers."
Yes blacks are killed with impunity — and they are murdered by other blacks. Wake up, you stupid self-appointed leaders. You are killing your own people with every policy you support and by demogaging issues that distract from the real issues.
Remember Denmark Vesey!
STFU - Mr. X, Y Z.
I don’t make time for anything from a peron who name begins with El and ends with Shabazz. Take your crap elsewhere, it doesn’t fly here.
If Holder's and Obama’s “people” would stop murdering each other, things would be much better. As Marion Barry said about Washington, DC (then #1 in the USA’s murder rate): “If not for the murders, Washington is a great place to live.”
Little Scooter here may well be correct in this claim.What he fails to acknowledge,however,is that the huge major of black murder victims are killed BY OTHER BLACKS!FBI stats from 2009 show that of the 2867 black murder victims that year,2604 of them were killed by a black.That's 90%.The FBI stats also show that in that same year 209 of those victims were killed by whites.That's 7%.
Yeah, mostly by other Blacks.
No it’s Malcolm “Z”.
Re just now got the alphabet figured out, don’t make it complicated with numbers.
Stop snitchin’.
“Blacks are murdered with impunity in the United States because the system is unjust.”
Uh, no.
Blacks are murdered, almost exclusively, 95%, by other blacks.
However, if “the system” he is talking about is Planned Parenthood, which is currently killing on average 60% of ALL black pregnancies in NYC alone, 67% of the total killings, then yes, indeed, “the system” is killing blacks.
Of those blacks killed by non-blacks, only a miniscule number are killed for racial reasons.
Q.E.D. *If* El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz truly cared for black people, he would demand of them that they stop killing each other.
And since he does not, instead pretending some imaginary lethal oppression by those other than black people, it goes to show that El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz DOES NOT CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE, but has entirely different motives.
It also has a lot to do with what classes were taken in HS. Check out this quote Ogbu wrote in his recent book, Black American Students in an Affluent Suburb: A Study of Academic Disengagement, "that black students in the affluent homes of doctors and lawyers are looking at rappers in ghettos as their role models."
