Someone asked about Martin Luther King, "He was a tremendous human being," Mrs. Mitchell said sadly. "But I do not accept non-violence as a principle. I am closer to Malcolm X. He stood for freedom...
...fact that Hatchett had been fired as a substitute teacher in the New York City schools for taking his sixth-grade class to a Black Power rally in memory of Malcolm X did not unduly alarm N.Y.U.

The remark might come from a militant consciousness akin to Malcolm X's when he called welfare emasculating, but considering that the black boy is working for the police, it probably is just as absurd, vicious, and ugly as it seems...
