Hi Big Herc
I’m a big fan of what you’re doing – it’s very educational and hopefully it can steer would-be criminals and conflicts away from crime and prison.
My question is regarding Malcolm X / el-Hajj Malik el-Shabazz
In his autobiography, Malcolm X credits his time in prison with being a major factor from him changing his ways. Despite being unable to read or write to a decent level, he began reading books in his time in prison, educating himself. It was in his time in prison that he turned away from drugs, cigarettes and pork.
It’s truly remarkable how a degenerate, low-life, dead end drug dealer and thief would end up becoming one of the most influential black men of the modern age, doing an incredible amount for black people and Muslims in America and in Africa. What’s more remarkable is that this transformation began when he was at the lowest point in his life – behind bars.
Malcolm’s transformation reminded me of you, about how you committed a crime, were locked up, and used your time in prison to read and study, and how now you propagate good conduct and educate people on prison and crime.
My question is, do you see a parallel between your story and Malcolm X’s, and has he had an influence on your output on life? Do you have an opinion of the man to share to us?
Thanks a lot Big Herc
From,
