MALCOLM X:
Senator DOUGLAS: 2 can understand Nr, MUHAMMAD X's feelings
about the white race and about Christianit
and may I say very frankly that — think
consciencious Christians have a fear of guilt
Dut I's somewhat pussled by the fact that Mr.
MALCOLM KX and others @nbrace Muhammadisn and
Islaniom because as Mr, MING said the vorst
slave traders in Africa vere the Arab slave
traders, the sost brutal, cruel people you —
can possibly imagine and they would buy up
the Negroes from Central Africa and take then
to the shipping ports in compounds on the coast
then the nations which have perpetuated slavery
and slave trade down into moderna tines have
been the Arabic Muhasmadan nations, notably
Saudi Arabia where I think slavery still
exists so if Mr. MALCOLM X repudiates
Christianity I think he’s going to be
compelled to repudiate Muhanmadisn,
There's a story in the Christian Bible as well
as in the Muslim Bible about JOSEPH who was
gold into slavery by his own brothers and he
finally ended up in the land of Egypt and he
became ruler over that land where he had been
sold as a slave, and he turned around and forgave
his brothers who sold kim into bondage but I
don't know whether er not he forgave the ones
who purchased him. The so-called Negro
in this country’s history runs parallel
with that. It's true that the Arabs had a
hand in selling many of our people into
slavery and the Arabe have paid for it, .
they lost their civilisation. At the tine
slavery was being carried on the Arabs had a
trenendous culture in the tremendous civilization,
tremendous empire,and the part that they played
in thie very criminal act against our people in
Africa brought about the downfall of the Arab
Rupire, the breakup of the Arab Fepire.
Just as the (inaudible) in the Buropean nations
had a hand in the colonisation of Africa after
it was weakened by slavery and they are paying
for the part that they played. The only country
left on this earth who has yet to pay for the
part that it played ia slavery is Anerica.
