What Would Malcolm X Think?
Malcolm would bemoan the lack of sustained, targeted activism. Yes, there are
many people continuing the hard work that began after Ferguson. But far
too many have moved on. Today when people speak about how we must fight
racism, the “threat” feels empty. We have softened to the point of
apathy, and everyone is so easily distracted from activism by pop
culture and high-tech consumerism. How can we expect change when no one
feels accountable to provide justice — including grand juries and
district attorneys?
