What does Malcolm X say the American politicians are doing to African Americans?

Malcolm X criticized American politicians for exploiting and neglecting African Americans, viewing them as mere votes rather than constituents deserving of genuine representation and support. He argued that politicians often made empty promises and failed to address the systemic racism and socioeconomic disparities faced by Black communities. Instead of working to uplift African Americans, many politicians perpetuated a cycle of disenfranchisement and inequality. Malcolm X emphasized the need for African Americans to demand their rights and assert their dignity rather than relying on the goodwill of politicians.
