Who taught you to hate the texture of your hair? Who taught you to hate the color of your skin? To such extent you bleach, to get like the white man. Who taught you to hate the shape of your nose and the shape of your lips? Who taught you to hate yourself from the top of your head to the soles of your feet? Who taught you to hate your own kind? Who taught you to hate the race that you belong to so much so that you don't want to be around each other? No... Before you come asking Mr. Muhammad does he teach hate, you should ask yourself who taught you to hate being what God made you.
We don't steal, we don't gamble, we don't lie and we don't cheat. You can't get into a whiskey bottle without getting past a government seal. You can't buy a deck of cards without getting past a government seal. Here the white man makes the whiskey then puts you in jail for getting drunk. He sells you the cards and the dice and puts you in jail when he catches you using them.
The most disrespected woman in America, is the black woman. The most un-protected person in America is the black woman. The most neglected person in America, is the black woman. And as Muslims, the honorable Elijah Muhammed teaches us to respect, our women, and to protect our women. And the only time a Muslim gets real violent, is when someone goes to molest his woman. We will kill you, for our women I'm making it plain yes, we will kill you for our women. We believe that if the white man, will do whatever its necessary, to see that his woman get respect and protection, then you and I will never be recognized as men. Until we stand up like men and pays the same penalty over the head of anyone, who puts his filthy hands out, to put it in a direction of our women.
Description :
The Autobiography of Malcolm X describes Malcolm’s first twelve years of life, a time he remembers as a nightmare.
Indeed, the main events of the chapter are all scenes from a nightmare:
the Ku Klux Klan attack in Omaha; the burning of the family’s home in
Lansing; the many fights of his parents and their harsh treatment of the
children; the violent death of Malcolm’s father; the harassment of the
family by welfare officials; the transfer of Malcolm to the custody of
another family; and Mrs. Little’s breakdown and committal to the mental
hospital.

Malcolm’s attitude toward the early part of his life is that it
was an initiatory period, preparing him for the religious conversion
which awaited him in prison. All the events of his life, his self-hatred
and degradation, had been prepared by Allah to give him a proper sense
of humility when he was finally saved.
