I don't know about this so I can't speak on it. I don't consider the perceived militance of Malik to be indicative of bicultural organizations, in general.

Welllllllll, if an organization like Malik would be militant toward members of the white diaspora, they would not be multicultural. Whites also have a race, ethnicity, and culture. There's no multiculturalism if you aren't open to white folks joining you and your purpose doesn't include being open to the white diaspora without white folks constantly feeling like the offspring of colonialists and imperials.
