Except Magneto didn't go to Mecca and then start agreeing with Professor Xavier pretty soon before he got shot. :beer:

"We are the future Charles, not them!" :confused:

If I were to participate in this silly excercise, I would pit the founder of The Black Panthers as Magneto.

well ya, thats tru. But their mannerism on how to approach equality for their kind is similar.

Magneto wanted seperation. Xavier wanted co-existance. Also, MLK wanted nonviolence, just like Xaiver, and MX didnt... just like Magneto.

MX once said in a speech, "why should we be nonviolent, when no one else is." Thats exactly what Magneto believes.

Yes, and then Malcolm X went to Mecca, saw that white people weren't the devil because white and black people were praying to Allah together and basicly renounced what he had been saying for all of his life(or the part of his life after his stay in prison).

I'm currently writing the paper. And no, I won't be including Magneto and Xavier as a comparison to MX and MLK. :p

I actually thought about it, and I would have if my teacher knew the two comic book charecters..........................
