Black Folk-Does anyone else think we should be celebrating Malcolm X instead of Martin Luther King?

Malcolm X cared more about black people. He didn't want integration because he knew it would be economic suicide for the mes of black people. Martin Luther King didn't think past integration, he wanted social equality. The only thing is, how are you going to integrate and have social equality when you don't own even 1% of America's resources. He went on to say, white people have the ability to hold you back from a job, since black people didn't deserted their position as head employers in the black community. Malcolm X wanted to stay separate but equal, meaning the already designated black area's of America back then would be all black controlled, black businesses, only competing for the black dollar. If the money stayed in the community, black people would never have to branch out so far, and spend their money in other communities. In other words, group economics. Black people abandoned this philosophy and it left a large portion and still a large segment of the black community slightly above the poverty line. He also petitioned for our 40 acres and a mule, meaning instead of the NBA/NFL hiring blacks, we would be hiring our own, and also be playing in our own black stadiums, bringing that economic advantage to a greater number or black people.
