Which phrase in this excerpt from a 1964 interview with Malcolm X indicates that he is explicitly stating an opinion? "I think all of us should be critics of each other. When you can't stand criticism you can never grow. I don't think that it serves any purpose for the leaders of our people to waste their time fighting each other needlessly."

choices
-critics of each other
-you can never grow
-i don't think that it
-leaders of our people

I answered "I don't think that", because it states that he is thinking and observing for the rest of the statement, it isn't a proven fact. I hope this helps!
