Malcolm X Power in defense of freedom is greater than power in behalf of tyranny and oppression because power, real power, comes from our conviction which produces action, uncompromising action.

Malcolm X uses event to condemn racism in USA. NOI gags Malcolm X. Malcolm X forms Muslim Mosque Pilgrimage to Mecca altered his sense of brotherhood Assassinated 21 February 1965 by NOI members

Malcolm X Quotes Don't be in a hurry to condemn because he doesn't do what you do or think as you think or as fast. There was a time when you didn’t know what you know today Stumbling is not falling. There is no better than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve your performance next time. If you're not ready to die for it, put the word freedom out of your vocabulary. I believe that there will ultimately be a clash between the oppressed and those that do the oppressing. I believe that there will be a clash between those who want freedom, justice and equality for everyone and those who want to continue the systems of exploitation. You don't have to be a man to fight for freedom. All you have to do is to be an intelligent human being. I am not a racist. I am against every form of racism and segregation, every form of discrimination. I believe in human beings, and that all human beings should be respected as such, regardless of their colour.

Malcolm X Epiphany and Death In 1963, Malcolm X undertook a pilgrimage that was a political and spiritual turning point in his life. It placed the American Civil Rights Movement within the context of a global anti-colonial struggle. Malcolm X was optimistic about the prospects for peaceful resolution to America's race problems. "The true brotherhood I had seen had influenced me to recognize that anger can blind human vision. America is the first country…that can actually have a bloodless revolution," he said. Just as Malcolm X appeared to be embarking on an ideological transformation with the potential to dramatically alter the course of the Civil Rights Movement, he was assassinated.

Why Malcolm X? Malcolm X was a great political leader and an amazing thinker. Malcolm X was misunderstood and painted as a radical and a racist by those who feared him Malcolm X understood freedom and equality
