Not that they need the plug, but The New Yorker magazine had a good article on hangovers this week, written by Joan Acocella:

In celebration of Malcolm X’s birthday we decided to bring attention to excerpts from his famous Ballot or the Bullet speech where he explains the importance of Black Nationalism and the difference between Civil Rights and Human Rights. Included in this speech are his thoughts on the true meaning of Revolution as well as a dope song by North Carolina rapper K-Hill called ‘My People’.

Much of what Malcolm said 40 years ago still applies today. Enjoy, Reflect and Be Inspired.
