Quote
Benjamin 2X:
Mr. X, my name is Benjamin and I was out there tonight. And I saw what it is that you did. I mean the way you talked to them policemen and all. Well, Mr. X, I want to be a Muslim. I mean, I ain't never seen a nigger, I mean, a colored person, a negro talk to no police like that.
Malcolm X:
And you want to be a Muslim? You want to join the Nation of Islam.
Benjamin 2X:
Yes, sir.
Malcolm X:
Do you know what that means - to be a Muslim? Do you?
Benjamin 2X:
Well, not exactly, but - but I want to be one. I mean, just like you.
Malcolm X:
But you should never join any organization unless you know exactly what it's about.
Benjamin 2X:
Thank you.
[starts to leave]
Malcolm X:
You shouldn't give up so easily. We can use more young warriors like yourself.
