- After joining the Nation of Islam, Malcolm X became known as a human rights activist whose teachings led the charge of black progression during the latter parts of the 1960s.
Radicalized by a stint in prison, Malcolm X was a warrior who was not afraid to get on the front lines of the Civil Rights Movement. His sharp contrast from the non-violent approach molded by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. meant Malcolm X had a clear agenda against anyone in opposition. He and his followers were determined to fight back against injustices by any means necessary, and his teachings laid the framework for the Black Power ideology and uplifted the black community in ways that promoted dignity and respect.
Hosted by Henry Louis Gates Jr., with additional notes from political commentator Armstrong Williams and Farah Griffin of Columbia University, we celebrate the story of Malcolm X, whose commitment to black people and their advancement is still felt today.

As a Chicano out of L.A. , Sur Califas , Southern California for those who dont know Spanglish , he also inspired me to dig deep into my culture and become aware of Brown Pride and my Mexika Roots . . . I thank this man and salute 🫡 Him . . . Like the Rapper and Brother that goes by the name KAM said, 🎵🎶"Black and Brown on the Same Team"🎶🎵
I always admired Malcolm X.
A truly liberated black leader. R.I.P ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥Shalom

After faith holds you, and you go out of it, you lose meaning, so you stick to what helped you in this the root of what helped you and you go and find meaning
Why is Armstrong Williams a trusted voice in a two minute clip about Malcolm X ??? I cannot use this for a classroom...the guy took kickbacks to create propaganda for No Child Left Behind.
Thanks this helped me with my project
a role model of mine, we need reincarted for todays day and age
It wasn't the nation of islam it was the government.
It was both. It was members of NOI working under the influence of and assistance from the FBI.
It was religion that cost him his life...
Religion is the biggest killer of all time
That's ehy we got to be careful about who listen to telling our teachers story after their gone misleading information half told truth.
King was in the bed with the white man. Taught the black man to not fight back.
Who got the Civil Right’s act of ‘64 passed? Oh right is was MLK. I’m sad that you believe that there isn’t a difference between non-violence and conformity
Did you know that you can go to heaven for free? This one decision can change your eternity forever. Jesus died for both mine and your sins. All you have to do is confess that you’re a sinner and accept Jesus as your savior.
Or... perhaps it's time to put childish things away and be your own savior.
If you think Malcolm X was good, please read Marcus Garvey quotas, we should only respect each other, no matter the skin color, we would be living in a better society without the politicians influence, "we're sick and tired of the ism skism games".
Bushwa black so called intellectuals need to stop acting like Malcolm was this self made individual...MALCOLM X WAS MADE TAUGHT AND REARED BY THE MOST HONORABLE ELIJAH MUHAMMAD ....
Elijah Muhammad was the messenger for Black Muslims. Malcolm was the messiah for black people!
@@jamieyaoatis2207 YOU KAINT BE A MESSIAH AND A HYPOCRITE AT THE SAME TIME....
@@woodsd4 Elijah Muhammad can’t be the messenger either then since we know he was imperfect based off your logic.
@@woodsd4 pot calling the kettle black
@@jamieyaoatis2207 ION CARE WHAT'chu CALL'it
Many misguided thoughts in these comments.
Obama??? 🤣🤣🤣
This guy Louis Gates is not creditable and everything he does should be questioned.
I don't think Obama had his philosophy
As a student of Malcolm X for over 40 years he and Obama had nothing in common. One was the greatest revolutionary theoretician this country has ever produced and died for Black liberation and the other was a moderate democratic politician that helped expand the system of White supremacy for the American Empire. I don’t see the similarities.
Members of the NOI slained Malcolm X 😂😂😂😂😂 you mean the fbi and nypd slain him.
He looks half white.
Oh yeah I’ll check when I’m not skip the other two minutes of how black people or so of pressed in this country I was born in 63 you were making a claim back then almost 60 years ago as the same song and dance nothing will ever change with you nothing you’re giving you’ll ever make work I’m done with it.
The grotesque sub context of your comment is almost overshadowed by your horrific grammar and piss poor spelling.
I would say congratulations, but the word probably has too many syllables for you to sound out.
Since I don't know you, I can't say for sure if your disgusting opinion was caused by bad parenting when you were a child or through the influence of the scumbags you chose to affiliate with as you became an adult. But either way, you should literally be ashamed for typing this bullshit.
I hope in the time that has passed since you posted this, your mindset has changed a little, but the reality is, you are most likely a lost cause. People your age aren't going to just suddenly come around after a lifetime of being a shitty human. You were lost long ago.
Real patriots can look at history and see where their beloved nation has missed the mark. They also are driven to ensure that these wrongs are given full light and rectified.
You are no patriot. You are a useful idiot to partisan hacks who parrot bullshit to keep simple minds like yours confused about who the enemy is.
@@LEOHACKMAN247 Yes of course you poor opressed African-American😂
@@Americanpatriot-zo2tk I am a 40+ year old white male, you fucking dummy.
