Malcolm X was born on May 19, 1925, exactly 100 hundred years ago. He would grow to become one of the greatest Black leaders in US history. Revolutionary Muslim minister. Black civil rights leader. Human rights activist. Black nationalist.
He stood up to racist violence, white supremacy, and police brutality throughout his life. Malcolm X’s speeches and his words continue to inspire, even 60 years after his assassination.
