Cleveland: Sir – “The Bullet”

The Ballot or the Bullet was one of Malcolm X’s last speeches, which was delivered in Cleveland Ohio on April 3rd, 1964. The primary goal of the speech was to create awareness to the people of their political power. Casting their ballot was like putting a bullet into a target. Therefore the real power was in the people casting the ballot by putting their power into an agenda or in other words, firing a bullet at a target. Picture this: your passion and drive are your bullets and you can fire whenever you choose to. One of the problems is that many times people either are afraid to fire or just have bad aim. However. If we never aim and fire at our targets then we will never have a chance at hitting them. You are the bullet, what’s your target?”
