Didn’t know about the financing. Much commendations to those celebrities who placed their money to support the telling of Malcom’s story.

Spike Lee has never told a lie. The movie MALCOLM X was indeed a GREAT MOVIE 🎬 🎞 🎥. A TRIBUTE TO AFRICAN AMERICAN History and CINEMATOGRAPHY . Thank YOU Mr. Spike Lee for contributing the truth to African American Culture.

Crazy how relevant some of these topics are today especially the last 3 minutes of this interview sometimes I do wish those who weren’t born in America who weren’t born with a sense of finding culture could understand the experience

He has that face in the beginning like, I’m too good to be here

Wow, this was an amazing interview. It only took me 20 years to get around to it. I was in high school when this interview was done. Mr. Spike Lee, It'd be nice to meet you one day. I have been researching Malcolm X on my own these days, writing about my impressions. I wish I had known about him before, wasn't really "taught" about him in high school. After doing my own research the last couple of days, and after years of trying to understand the world we live in, and questioning many things, I can now put one and one together and can understand why. However times of brainwashing are over now that we have knowledge ad primary sources literally at our fingertips. We must set our minds free and search for the truth. The whole world is ready for, and needs, Malcolm today.

Mad to think this came out when I was just born

[ZacharyWeaver-rcxc]

Malcolm X is probably my favorite biopic but Do the Right Thing is still spikes best and maybe the best film of the 80s
