MINISTER LOUIS FARRAKHAN Sets The Record Straight About His Relationship With MALCOLM X
Jet, June 5, 2000 by Clarence Waldron
He admits, "I don't think any person who goes through a life-threatening situation or a trial of a great magnitude comes out the same. I am not the same man I was 35 years ago. And I hope that five years and 10 years from now, I'll be a better man, a more mature man, a wiser man, a more humble man and a more spirited man to serve the good of my people and the good of humanity."
Asked how he would like to be remembered, he reveals, "I don't think about my legacy, if indeed, I have one. That is in the hands of God. But if I thought on it, I would like to be remembered as a brother who loved his people and did everything that I knew to fight for them, the liberation of our people. A brother who recognizes that we have shortcomings, we, in the struggle, have faults, and that he wanted to reconcile differences."
