My question is "Who is malcom X and how has the outlooks on his views changed from the civial rights era to present day?". Yes this is a long winded question,but it aslo is an intriguing question aswell. I believe this is an attracting topic to write about because we can receive insight from our past, to further evaluate the distance we come in the present. The man "Malcolm Little" also known as Malcolm X was more than a motivational speaker. Mr. X was simply a martyr,a person who stood for justice ,and demanded true equality,By any means."It is a time for martyrs now, and if I am to be one, it will be for the cause of brotherhood. That's the only thing that can save this country."
-- February 19, 1965 (2 days before he was murdered by Nation of Islam followers)
Taking this quote in context, Mr.X is trying to convey that it is fundamental for our communites to band together and stand for all. For the black people of America to be heard and represented as they should was a astounding task, Mr.X was willing to take. This is why I want this question as my own. -A.Osborne
