Ultimately, Malcolm hoped to achieve equality and justice for African Americans and African American Muslims. He wanted brotherhood amongst blacks and whites, and to live in a multi-ethnic society with racial harmony.
During his time at the Nation of Islam, Malcolm was always told to preach that white people were devils, and blacks were superior to whites, but he later stated that he no longer believed in that. A quote to deny the fact that he was racist was, "I am not a racist.... In the past I permitted myself to be used...to make sweeping indictments of all white people, the entire white race and these generalizations have caused injuries to some whites who perhaps did not deserve to be hurt. Because of the spiritual enlightenment which I was blessed to receive as a result of my recent pilgrimage to the Holy city of Mecca, I no longer subscribe to sweeping indictments of any one race. I am now striving to live the life of a true...Muslim. I must repeat that I am not a racist nor do I subscribe to the tenants of racism. I can state in all sincerity that I wish nothing but freedom, justice and equality, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all people." This clearly tells us that all he wanted was the chance for black people to be seen as humans first, and then seen as colours. He also once said that unity between black and white people can only happen if black people form a tight knit bond first. This was his reason for trying to build up a large community of black people who all wanted the same thing; liberty.
