Malcolm X Would Call Biden a 'Pretender Public Defender'.
- Authors
Cooper, Stephen
- Abstract
Malcolm X Would Call Biden a "Pretender Public Defender" But the not unrelated point I want to impress upon you today is: If Malcolm X were still alive, he would point out that when Biden was sparring with Kamala Harris to be the Democratic candidate for president, Biden trumpeted his brief tenure as a public defender. Malcolm X, one of the most effective critics white America has ever known, who decried "straight-jacketed thinking, and straight-jacketed societies", believed: "In our mutual sincerity we might be able to show a road to the salvation of America's very soul.".
