Malcolm would always address the weak-minded coon black man. He would address how the black man that is in a position to not understand what's going on around him and lay out the reason. I don't think Malcolm moved different. He called out sambos, coons and safe niggas. He pointed out their reasons/views. He was firm and direct and also unapologetic when calling out these weak black men.
He made sure to address and point out coons, sambos and safe negros, the house negro when he had his debates.
That's pretty much what folks or the so call "woke" crowd is doing. Same tatic, different name and time
