habari gani & afrocentric greetings 2 the brothers & sisters of the house of visions. 
as most here already kno, malcolms b'day is now less than 1 month away. i am proposing we host a commemoration n his honor. Malcolm was born may 19, 1925 n omaha nebraska from earl & louise little. may 19 falls on a friday this year. w the approval of BlackAngel, of course, i would like 2 invite every1 who feels so inclined, to drop a post - w regard 2 ANY aspect of this honorable prophet & elder stateman - n any form: story, comment, poem, song, quote, etc., n the forum titled, remembering malcom, which is already n xistence under afrocentric notes & quotes, on that day, or, ova the entire wkend, as often as possible. this notice is also being posted there (duplicate).
please feel free 2 begin 2 gather ur thots, scribe ur flo's, collect ur quotes 4 this wkend long - at least n my case - celebration of this brothers life & work 4 the collective.
BlackAngel, f u determine a mor appropriate location 4 this, please feel free 2 mov it as u desire. looking 4ward 2 reading from all of u soon.

| I most certainly will see what I can contribute to honor this great figure in our history. I thank you, as well, for bringing this to light brotha. I look forward to seeing what everyone brings to the table.

hi Beatmaster 
much thanx 4 ur support - i don't think there's any shame n not knowing mor about our ancestors & their accomplishments - since, after all, no group of ppl has mor history than we do , & none of us knows all of it
on the contrary, i'm happy u feel the need 2 learn mor about them & willing 2 do something 2 make that happen. my hope is that this is merely one n a series of tributes brought 2 the house by all, 2 enhance the knowledge of outstanding ppl of COLOR, something we could all benefit by. 
thanx again
