witnessed such sincere hospitality... 2307 02:37:44,872 --> 02:37:46,998 ...and true brotherhood... 2308 02:37:47,207 --> 02:37:48,833 ...as practiced here... 2309 02:37:49,042 --> 02:37:52,295 ...in the ancient home of Abraham, Mohammed... 2310 02:37:52,838 --> 02:37:56,048 "...and the great prophets of the Scriptures." 2311 02:38:02,306 --> 02:38:04,891 Today, with thousands of others... 2312 02:38:05,058 --> 02:38:08,644 ...I proclaimed God's greatness in the sacred city of Mecca. 2313 02:38:09,730 --> 02:38:13,149 In the ihram garb, I made my seven circuits around the Kaaba. 2314 02:38:13,734 --> 02:38:16,068 I drank from the well of Zem Zem. 2315 02:38:16,487 --> 02:38:19,238 I prayed to Allah from Mount Arafat. 2316 02:38:19,573 --> 02:38:23,451 It was the only time in my life that I stood before the creator of all... 2317 02:38:23,660 --> 02:38:26,162 ...and felt like a complete human being. 2318 02:38:46,350 --> 02:38:48,935 Now, you may be shocked by these words... 2319 02:38:49,102 --> 02:38:52,980 ...but I've eaten from the same plate, drunk from the same glass... 2320 02:38:53,190 --> 02:38:57,193 ...and prayed to the same God with Muslims whose eyes were blue... 2321 02:38:57,402 --> 02:39:01,656 ...whose hair was blond, and whose skin was the whitest of white. 2322 02:39:01,865 --> 02:39:03,616 And we were all brothers... 2323 02:39:03,784 --> 02:39:04,825 ...truly. 2324 02:39:05,035 --> 02:39:09,622 People of all colors and races believing in one God, in one humanity. 2325 02:39:24,304 --> 02:39:26,514 Each hour in this sacred land gives me... 2326 02:39:26,723 --> 02:39:30,309 ...greater spiritual insight into what is happening in America. 2327 02:39:30,727 --> 02:39:35,022 The American Negro can never be blamed for his racial animosities. 2328 02:39:35,232 --> 02:39:39,193 He's only reacting to 400 years of oppression and discrimination. 2329 02:39:39,403 --> 02:39:42,863 But as racism leads America up the suicidal path... 2330 02:39:43,073 --> 02:39:46,701 ...I believe the younger generation will see the writing on the wall... 2331 02:39:46,910 --> 02:39:50,329 ...and many will want to turn to the spiritual path of truth... 2332 02:39:50,497 --> 02:39:53,249 ...the only way left to ward off the disaster... 2333 02:39:53,458 --> 02:39:55,418 ...that racism must surely lead to. 2334 02:39:56,336 --> 02:40:00,506 Once before, in prison, the truth came and blinded me. 2335 02:40:01,592 --> 02:40:03,301 Well, it has happened again. 2336 02:40:04,344 --> 02:40:07,847 In the past, I've made sweeping indictments of all white people. 2337 02:40:08,098 --> 02:40:10,725 And these generalizations have caused injuries... 2338 02:40:10,934 --> 02:40:13,436 ...to some white folks who didn't deserve them. 2339 02:40:14,521 --> 02:40:18,524 "Because of the spiritual rebirth which I was blessed to undergo..." 2340 02:40:18,734 --> 02:40:20,901 ...as a result of my pilgrimage... 2341 02:40:21,111 --> 02:40:23,195 ...to the holy city of Mecca... 2342 02:40:24,990 --> 02:40:28,743 ...I no longer subscribe to sweeping indictments of one race. 2343 02:40:29,036 --> 02:40:30,453 I intend... 2344 02:40:31,371 --> 02:40:33,581 ...to be very careful not to... 2345 02:40:33,790 --> 02:40:37,585 careful not to sentence anyone who has not been proven guilty. 2346 02:40:38,211 --> 02:40:40,254 I am not a racist... 2347 02:40:40,464 --> 02:40:43,758 ...and I do not subscribe to any of the tenets of racism. 2348 02:40:43,967 --> 02:40:45,885 In all honesty and sincerity... 2349 02:40:46,053 --> 02:40:50,181 ...it can be stated that I wish nothing but freedom, justice... 2350 02:40:50,390 --> 02:40:52,058 ...and equality... 2351 02:40:52,684 --> 02:40:57,396 ...life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all people. 2352 02:40:57,814 --> 02:41:01,067 My first concern is with the group to which I belong... 2353 02:41:01,234 --> 02:41:05,404 ...for we, more than others, are deprived of our inalienable rights. 2354 02:41:05,572 --> 02:41:07,573 But the true practice of Islam... 2355 02:41:07,783 --> 02:41:09,784 ...can remove the cancer of racism... 2356 02:41:09,993 --> 02:41:13,621 ...from the hearts and the souls of all Americans. 2357 02:41:13,830 --> 02:41:16,123 If I can die having brought any light... 2358 02:41:16,333 --> 02:41:21,253 ...having exposed any truth that will help destroy this disease... 2359 02:41:22,005 --> 02:41:25,925 ...then all the credit is due to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds. 2360 02:41:26,426 --> 02:41:28,844 And only the mistakes have been mine. 2361 02:41:30,430 --> 02:41:32,765 Please give all my love to the children. 2362 02:41:33,266 --> 02:41:34,850 I love you dearly. 2363 02:41:35,769 --> 02:41:39,021 Sincerely, El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz... 2364 02:41:39,356 --> 02:41:41,023 ...Malcolm X. 2365 02:42:28,822 --> 02:42:29,905 Let's begin. 2366 02:42:30,115 --> 02:42:34,493 Malcolm, you said on your trip abroad you sensed a feeling of great brotherhood. 2367 02:42:34,661 --> 02:42:38,914 Uh, yes, when I was in Mecca making the pilgrimage... 2368 02:42:39,833 --> 02:42:44,044 ...the brotherhood that existed there among all people, all races... 2369 02:42:44,254 --> 02:42:48,299 ...all levels of people who had accepted the religion of Islam... 2370 02:42:49,259 --> 02:42:53,846 ...what it had done for those people, despite... 2371 02:42:54,055 --> 02:42:56,015 ...their complexion differences... 2372 02:42:56,224 --> 02:42:59,477 Perhaps if people here in America would try... 2373 02:42:59,686 --> 02:43:03,272 ...and practice and study the religion of Islam, it might help... 2374 02:43:03,482 --> 02:43:07,318 ...to erase the plague of racism here. 2375 02:43:07,778 --> 02:43:11,030 I think Muslims over there look at themselves as... 2376 02:43:11,198 --> 02:43:16,160 ...human beings, as part of the same human family. 2377 02:43:16,620 --> 02:43:19,038 Today my friends are black... 2378 02:43:19,331
