Malcolm X Movie: Speech in Harlem

I must emphasize at the out-start that the honorable Elijah Muhammad is not a politician
So i'm not here this afternoon as a republican nor as democrat
Not as a mason, nor as an elk, not as a protestant or as a catholic, not as a christian, nor a Jew, not as a baptist or a Methodist,in fact not even as an American.
Because if I was an American, the problem that confronts our people today wouldn't even exist
So I have to stand here today what I was when I was born. A black man.
Before there was any such thing as a republican or a democrat, we were black
Before there was any such thing as a mason or an elk, we were black
Before there was any such thing as a Jew or a christian, we were black people
In fact, before there was any such place as America, we were black
And after America has long passed from the scene there will still be black people
Every election year these politicians are sent up here to pacify us
They are sent here and set up here by the white man
This is what they do, they send drugs down here in Harlem to pacify us, they send alcohol down here to pacify us, they send prostitution down here to pacify us
Boy you can't even get drugs in Harlem without the white man's permission
You can't get prostitution in Harlem without the white man's permission
You can't get gambling in Harlem without the white man's permission
Every time you break the seal on that liquor bottle, that's a government seal you're breaking
Oh I say it, and I say it again, you been had, you been took, you been hoodwinked,bamboozled, led astray, run amok
