Shortly afterward, Malcolm went abroad again, including taking the Hadj (Pilgrimage, a central requirement of the Islamic faith to be done at least once in one's lifetime if one can reasonably afford it) to the holy city of Mecca[[note]]which took considerable amount of discussion with the local authorities to determine whether Malcolm was a true Muslim by their standards to be allowed to participate in the ceremonies[[/note]] and various nations in Africa. In Mecca, he began to realize how provincial the Nation of Islam's theology was and how Islam as practiced around the world differed from his own, causing him to gradually revise his religious beliefs. In Africa, he served as an American representative to the Organization of African Unity (which his own organization had been based on) made contacts with important figures with whom he hoped to win political support. His politics began to evolve as well: he shifted his focus from what he perceived as White people's perceived moral depravity, to their role as the global oppressor of non-White people. He maintained his reluctance to allow White people in his organizations, believing that they would attempt to dominate and subvert the agenda of any organization they joined, but became receptive to working with White people within their own organizations. Despite leaving the Nation, he refused to moderate his rhetoric, believing that at the very least his militant stance would make Whites more receptive to those such as Martin Luther King. His efforts as an independent figure culminated in the Oxford Union Debate of December 3, 1964. The speech he gave at the Oxford Union became the fullest exposition of his politics post-Nation of Islam and for the first time broadcast an unfiltered Malcolm X to a world that had only known him through sound bites.
