I’ve always had the name… on my passport, Malik El Shabazz… only I only used it in the Muslim world, well Hajj is a title that is given to any Muslim who make the Pilgrimage to Makkah during the official Hajj season… one thing that I found in all of my travels was that all of the Africans… not only the Africans… But the Asians, the Muslims… Look upon us as their long lost brothers, and America had actually tricked many of them into hands of policy, by giving them the impression that “She” was honestly trying to do something to solve the problem… My argument over there was designed to prove that it is impossible, for the United States Government to solve the race problem. “Never have I witnessed such sincere hospitality and overwhelming spirit of true brotherhood as is practiced by people of all colors and races….

Here he mingled with the brilliant classes from the Eastern Seaboard who so obsessed him for the rest of his life. In 1917 he was drafted into the army, but he never saw active service abroad. Instead, he spent much of his time writing and re-writing his first novel This Side of Paradise , which on its publication in 1920 became an instant success. In the same year he married the beautiful Zelda Sayre and together they embarked on a rich life of endless parties. During the next 5-10 years, Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald are at the center of Jazz Age culture, and regularly appear in gossip magazines.  They were the talk of the town!  What was their life like? ·        She was wild!  So
