But when the property of the white man is threatened or his freedom is threatened, he’s not non-violent.” “So if the whites are sincere in ‘the struggle, they will show the black man how to use better tactics, tactics that will get ‘pesulis — and not results a hundred years from how. : “Our people are not going to wait ten years,” he said. “If this house is a house of free- dom awa justice for all — it that's what it is — then let's have it” Toward the end of the question period an elderly white man in- sisted on a chance to answer Mal- colm X.
