This is a picture of "popular" girls. They represent the whites to me. Would you want to be friends with girls that gave you a look like that??? I don't think so.

Malcolm and Civil rights (numba 4)
I think Malcolm's view on civil rights and integration is a lot more dignified than the civil rights activists. the activists call for integration, but Malcolm sees it as why would we want to be integrated with people that hate us? He doesn't see racism as a fixable problem. It also made me think when he said that he respects the southerners for being honest about not wanting integration, more than the northerners who pretend to want it. Although history somewhat proves malcolm wrong because racism has drastically decreased, I think if I was a black in this time I would have the same mentality as Malcolm. Why would you want to "fit in" with a group of people who hate you? It reminds me of an elementry school situation. Everyone always wants to be in the "popular group", or in this case the whites' society. If the popular kids hated me though and didn't want me in their group, I would make my own friends. I wouldn't go out of my way to be friends with them. This is like what malcolm is doing. He is telling the blacks you don't need to be in the "popular" society, we can do fine on our own.

Mike - I understand what you mean. However sometimes it is not easy for an unpopular person to accept that he is unwanted or disliked by the popular clique. In most cases it is in the nature of the unpopular person to better himself to fit the standards of dominant society.
No actually. What you were saying was that if a person was outcasted by society that it should be easy for them to just ignore that fact and find their own group. Well what do you think Blacks ended up doing. They came together and formed their own clique where they could fit in. However, there are always those who won't accept the truth and do things like getting a conk to fit into conventual society.
P.S. How's Lara
