James McBride Quote

I asked her who he was and she said, He was a man ahead of his time. She actually liked Malcolm X. She put him in nearly the same category as her other civil rights heroes, Paul Robeson, Jackie Robinson, Eleanor Roosevelt, A. Philip Randolph, Martin Luther King, Jr., and the Kennedys—any Kennedy. When Malcolm X talked about the white devil Mommy simply felt those references didn’t apply to her.
