[My father] was not a racist, unlike what the white racist media would say. He had a global outlook just like Barack [Obama] and Michelle [Obama].
Malaak ShabazzMy father wasn't a militant racist. He was a human rights activist - he was about human beings, so let's just get away from going way back then.
Malaak ShabazzLooking at the Obamas, it's like my father and my mother 43 years later. It was the same old rock star thing, and I think Barack is continuing what my father did with true consciousness, true ability, and a global view.
Malaak ShabazzI look at Barack [Obama], he's slim like my father, and Michelle's [Obama] full figured like my mother. And I just love it.
