15 years later remembering Malcolm X Movie and mania

the film was Great and it showcased Denzel Washington in his Prime and artistic Peak overall. also this film was the last important film from Director Spike Lee to me. the film was about Malcolm X who to me was a Leader. but the sights and vibes about Malcolm X Mania was the spotlight on the Ball Cap which alot of folks were rocking but not many were reading the Book or fully understanding the Man. Malcolm X just like Dr.Martin Luhter King Jr, Fredreck Dougless and so many other Great Civil Rights and Human Rights Leaders made a better day for Black folks everywhere. this seems just like yesterday when the Film and the Selling of Malcolm X to the Masses was in full effect. the Book sold alot again but has there been much discussion or interest? when I left from watching the film a White dude apporached me and wanted to talk and that to me spoke volumes. but I often wonder on some levels if the film was just a moment in time? also folks who didn't embrace Malcolm's Personal sentiments of the early 60's now were suddenly trying to up Malcolm and Moonwalk from Dr.King. where the Media is concearned it can only be One Black Person at a time in the main light. but there is so much to be learned and studied. i remember this particular time period 15 years back and the anticipation for the film.
