Malcolm X

#TheBeatnigs

Here!
In this holy place
We come to bear witness to a man
Who means so much to us
To those of you who never knew Malcolm X
You may consider him a militant
A radical
A terrorist
But to those of you who ever once read anything that he wrote
Or ever heard him speak
Or ever held his hand
You would know him for what he truly was:
A prince
Our own shining prince
Who gave his life because he loved us so
