Forest Whitaker said ( about Malcolm X ) : “Bumpy Johnson was a poet, a devout Baptist, a strategist and a chess player,” “He had a great sense of family in regard to protecting his own family and a great sense of history. He was really interesting. I think one of the most interesting things about the series, though, is the type of relationship he had with Malcolm X. Many people aren’t fully aware of what type of relationship they had after meeting earlier in Malcolm’s Detroit Red days. Eventually, he and Malcolm entered into, not really a relationship, but mutual things happened to them”

Paul Butler said ( about Malcolm X ) : “Prisons have often been a site of letters for African-Americans,” “There are a lot of stories of people who did reading in prison and it changed their lives. Malcolm X is a famous example. Banning books from prisons has particular consequences for the African-American community, in part because there are so many young black men in prison”
