Malcolm X - Dialectical Journal No. NINETEEN!

CHAPTER 7 - Page 110

"I went to the movies a lot again. And I never missed my musician friends wherever they were playing, either in Harlem, downtown at the big theaters, or on 52nd street. Reginald and I got very close the next time his ship came back into New York."

This little description, followed by his heightened engagement in narcotics and crime, serves as a friendly reminder that not all is going down the drain for Malcolm. Showcasing his relationship with his brother and his friends, he leads a very eventful life, which is a major contrast. The life of Negroes were similar, as they still continued living their lives while struggling through, attempting to make ends meet with illegalilty.
