This was made many years ago, he said Obama 2012
Strong beautiful black womeeeeeeeeeen
when i was a kid i searched the school library for anything about Malcolm X and found nothing while MLK was mentioned everywhere.
The welder snipes comment about always bet on black took me out 🤣
Shit not even funny
This skit is so brilliant on so many levels. I’ve continued to come back to it for over a year now and each time I find something different that cracks me up just as hard
They attack you, bust you all upside your mouth and then take you to court and charge you with assault. What kind of democracy is that? What kind of freedom is that, what kind of social political system when a black men has no voice in court,has nothing on his side other what the white man choses to give him. Malcolm X
Trash!!

This was not funny
Jesse James and Al Sharpton conning the gullible masses.
😂 Gotta love these two and their skits! ✊🏾
Malcom X is the greatest black man to ever live
American history as taught in public schools: Slavery was bad and Abe Lincoln ended it. Segregation was also bad but Malcolm X didn't have to be so mean about it. Then Martin Luther King came along and had this big march and ended racism. The last racist left killed him but he went to jail The End But on a serious note, most Americans are so uninformed about Brother Malcolm and our schools need to do a better job teaching about him
When he said "Obama2020" i died 😂😂
Indeed doctor key
3:37 😅
Im not american and dont know these people but somewhere heard that they were like professor X and magneto of X men(about racism) is this true??
@bottle of jack thank you for the explanation, appreciate it! Man I have to say I heard the ‘dream’ speech it was amazing and your right my people could aspire to it even though un our country racism is not an issue but we have other discriminations, so ty
Using superheroes and other fiction as analogies for politics or history is generally a bad idea, but I guess in a very basic sense the analogy works? Malcolm X and MLK had very similar beliefs in terms of what they wanted society to look like, they just had different ideas on the best way to enact those beliefs. Both were leftists but MLK cared more about optics and making the civil rights movement appeal to people with less radical politics, although he still was publicly anti Vietnam war and considered himself a democratic socialist. Malcolm X was more open about his radical politics and while both preached non violence generally speaking, Malcolm X talked more about self defense than MLK because of the dangerous reality black Americans lived in. They both have very interesting stories and their messages are still relevant today, no matter what country you live in you’d be doing yourself a favor to learn more about them and other civil rights leaders or read/listen to some of their speeches
Just some background: This is a parody of a play titled “The Meeting.” The Meeting is a 1987 American play by Jeff Stetson about an imaginary meeting between Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X in 1965 in a hotel in Harlem during the height of the Civil Rights Movement.
Copied comment.
Hahaha great
WEST SIDE IS THE BEST SIDE 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Malcolm X took more actions than King, thats why he was assassinated, Malcolm X knew that the society will still treat black people unfairly, that’s why he worked hard to change that. He died a Hero. R.I.P Malcolm X
@Gilad Solomon I don’t think so, Malcolm did more. Malcolm traveled the word to let other nations know what happens in the USA from discrimination against the black, which forced the usa to take action, Malcolm showed everyone that there will be a fight back, people got encouraged by this. I respect both men but obviously Malcolm did 90% of the work. I don’t think that the right for a person to protect themselves against uncivilized attacks is to be called extreme but you can call it whatever you want. Malcolm will always be #1. I believe that king was trying to contain the black community and to take no action, Malcolm knew about this thats why he had to show his nation that the black people can fight too. You need to remember that at that time white nationalists used to kill black people without them being able to defend themselves. Most experts agreed on that without Malcolm X the discrimination against black people would have been worst. Also u do really need to take a history class but yah.
@Mikel Johan Malcolm was an extremist... he actually did worse for the cause, as the media and public could point at him and say “look at what happens when a black man has rights” or some bullshit like that. MLK was a hero
@Nicholas Walker I never said that king wasn’t?????!!!!!!! , I just said that Malcolm took more action
They were both assassinated though...
2:35 THAT EYE ROLE 😂🤣🤣
What?
The power of populisme! But it is always an ending story... check Donald Trump. After 4 years he gets what he deserves.
3:44 West Side!!! lmao
He said "Hopefully for 8yrs OBAMA 2020" or did I hear that Wrong?
That was a little rough
These guys man😂
Bro im dead
The ending fucking killed when I first saw this sketch aired, especially with the gang signs I’m deadass😭💀
well that devolved
Biden vs Bernie in the Primaries
west side is the best side . that part killed me
Watching during BLM anybody else
Most boringst one so far
I love how they used both of their famous lines just to get claps from the audience that was like the cherry on top
"We need the help of our strong, beautiful, black women!" Both Key and Peele are married to white women.
And I Ooop!!!
Obama 2020
Malcolm X deserves more credit than Martin because Malcolm is the ones that started everything.
i thought Malcom X was a rapper
I'm not this "black"
I nearly died when Malcolm did the worm and the moonwalk
"....we should cry for those,who cry when we bur'Malcolm X...." 2pac
Great satirists.
Those who wait to be freed, don't deserve freedom.
Where’s Rockwell?
Please turn off your cellphones?
malcolm wins hands down, no competition. brilliant and outstanding orator, rhetorically immaculate. king was more popular, but x was the better man with a more powerful message.
This is great knowing Jordan played MLK Jr. in ERB.
But the all point of this video is, if Malcolm X was really practicing this kind of speech’s than he thought the black community the blame syndrome and Dr. Kind was preaching Hope or am i doing to much ...
When King sayed “sometimes the sun in this COUNTRY shines brighter on some than others” he meant it as all (white peoples too) but the audience took it to the democratic side and Malcolm start pushing the blame syndrome
Chanel needs to stfu with that joker laugh, that shit gets so old after watching one episode i just cant watch another everyday
