Malcolm X's Anti-Semitism
The late Malcolm X, militant
Black Nationalist leader who was
slain this week at a New York
rally, had much to say about the
° Jews.
It was Bnai Brith's Anti-Defa-
mation League that called him
not only anti-Christian but anti-
Semitic. Yet in an interview with
Playboy Magazine before he broke
away from Elijah Muhammad's
Black Muslim movement, Malcolm
X showed grudging—albeit under-
handed—admiration for the Jews:
"Anybody that gives even a just
criticism of the Jew is instantly
c _.__laheled anti-Semite. The Jew cries
louder than any-
body else if any-
b o d y criticizes
him. You can tell
the truth about
any minority in
America, b u t
make a true ob-
servation a b o u t
the Jew, and if
it doesn't pat him
on the back then
he uses his grip
on the news
media to label
Malcolm X
you anti-Semite.
"Let me say just a word about
the Jew and the black man. The
Jew is always anxious to advise
the black man. But they never
advise him how to solve his prob-
lem the way the Jews solved
their problem. The Jew never
went sitting-in and crawling-in
and sliding-in and freedom-riding,
"Who owns Hollywood? Who
runs the garment industry, the
largest industry in New York City?
But the Jew that's advising the
Negro joins the NAACP, CORE,
the Urban League and others.
With money donations, the Jew
gains control, then he sends the
black man doing all this wading-
in, boring-in even burying-in-
everything but buying-in. Never
shows him how to set up factories
and hotels. Never advises him how
to own what he wants. No, when
there's something worth owning,
the Jew's got it."
