Can I being white or caucasian and male can I still respect and admire Malcolm X or Al-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz I think Malcolm X was a good Muslim he left Elijah Muhammad's teachings he was also a good Black person who cared about his race he was also not a racist like many White people claim what does everyone think of him ?
