[@Gwenesis]

Malcolm X was brilliant! Lord continue to watch over your children.

[@1anre]

She’s a very good orator & a role model for many young women to follow instead of the misleading movements littered all over popular culture of today.

[@denisedean2446]

I see so much of her parents in her character. Dr. Shabazz was a very intelligent and socially conscious woman.llyasah personalized her father and helps us to see the many facets of Bro. Malcolm.We forget just how young he was when he died at 39 years old. He and Martin King were so ahead of their time. Both assassinated at 39. Jesus taught love your neighbor as you love yourself.

She made such a profound statement when asked what would be his fight in today's society, the same as back then because not much has changed.

She favors her dad's mom.

[@nealrachel8915]

The one and only Queen.

[@josallins1]

From my perception she did not answer the question about putting those two things side by side. I mean, she gave an answer but it nothing to do with the specific question. That's all. No biggie.

[@jackiejackson8484]

Oh no my hero is not X anything only his name that he inherited was X.
