the idea was. to. make. malcolm smaller, you know? diminished; obscure? not to turn him into a messiah. what i got, now, is malcolm shoulder to shoulder with martin luther king. and malcolm running all over the world getting ben bella and nasser to denounce racism in the u.s. while we're competing over there with the soviets. not. a resounding success. we were better off before, with malcolm inside the nation. so. we want you. to get elijah muhammad. to take malcolm back. that's a joke. i'm kidding! don't you ever smile? we're on a timetable. malcolm's pal, quaison from ghana, is introducing malcolm's resolution to the general assembly in washington. that's in five weeks. thyroid. i got a stab wound in 1961. they took it out. we gotta talk about this guy, too.
