- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- In the late 1950s and the early to mid-1960s, a Muslim minister named Malcolm X rose to prominence in the United States during the struggle for Civil Rights. Malcolm X was a member of and spokesperson for the Nation of Islam, and he was a vocal advocate for Black empowerment. His views differed significantly from a lot of the well-known Civil Rights activists of the day, and his views evolved during his ministry. Today, we’ll learn about Malcolm X’s origins, his work with the Nation of Islam, his break from that organization, and his eventual assassination.

I didn't read this in school like a lot of my friends did, but I recently finished it and was literally telling my Mom about Malcolm X's courage and growth as a person when this video got published today. Great timing!
Malcolm X's 'The Ballot or The Bullet' is possibly the greatest speech I've ever heard
The Autobiography of Malcolm X should be taught in every high school.
Malcolm X was the GOAT
Despite all the struggles he faced in both his young age and adult years, he never let it get in the way of his goal, to see his people achieve freedom and equality by whatever means necessary.
May Allah have mercy on you Brother Malcolm 🤲🏾
I read the autobiography 30 years ago. It literally changed me! Thank you for honoring him.
Thank you so much for telling every angle of what was going on with Malcolm X in his early years as well as the years before his murder. You flush out these stories so well. And I wish we had learned these different angles in history class.
If only he had a little more time. Man I felt that.
Oh God. This was so inspiring. I will definitely read his autobiography
Do a video on the Black Panther Party.
It’s next
Always evolving is something I think we can all aspire to
Outstanding commentary on Brother Malcolm!
The Autobiography of Malcolm X is life-changing reading. Can genuinely recommend it to anyone and everyone.
Excellent!!! All of these brief lessons are great jumping off points for further reading, and research to get a more complete picture of the American history of Black people in this country. One way to start is by reading "How the Word Is Passed" bt Clint Smith.
I didn’t really know much of Malcom X but after watching this video was so inspiring! I already get emotional from watching this video, I can only imagine the book! Great video! Overall very informative!
One of the most strong and inspirational people in history.
I have really been enjoying your videos on the topic of Black American History. Many of these stories don't get told often enough or to enough people and I think that is part of the reason that this country still has so much difficulty confronting and dealing with its historically problematic record on race relations. Even though you are talking about people and events that I am well studied on you always manage to surprise me with unexpected facts or new information and your speaking style is measured and serious making you very effective at conveying the weight and importance of this topic. I worry that as we get further away from the unfinished struggles of the 1960s and the fewer people that remember the hard-won battles and tragic losses the more difficult it will be for us to get to that mountaintop together, and we still have such a long way to go. Keep fighting the good fight. All power to the people.
Great video, as always. While I was aware of much of the ground covered here what resonates now is the tragedy of his death and considering what he may have accomplished in the decades after.
I only knew about his story on the surface level but this was amazing. Looking forward to the Black Panther video next
At the age of 27 in 2017, i read his book. 1 word. Intens!
For everyone thinking about reading his book. It will change your life for the better!
You missed the reason why he dropped out of school. He was brilliant but the teachers told him he wouldn’t make it because of his skin colour
We Love you Malcolm
Such an important series
Book changed my life
just seen spike lee's film two weeks ago. thank you for this video, he inspires me to face my adversary with a calm and courageous attitude.
Oh my goodness!! Amazing!! I hope
You all follow Black Power beyond its rise!
Cool I got my associates from Malcolm X College so it’s nice to learn about him.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I appreciate this channel so much. Brother Malcolm was such a brilliant man. Thank you so much for this video.
Thank you for the crash course! These videos have really helped remedy my ignorance. I still have a lot to understand, but learning the history and context really helps
I want to thank you for the facts that you provide. I am an avid follower and love how you present facts. I love you!
This is pretty amazing. I think I speak for others as well when I say that my knowledge of Malcolm X pretty much stopped after his involvement with the NoI. Thanks for this video :)
Loved this video!!
It's a decline of black power since leadership was murdered as a race. Individualism is there weapon
THIS WAS EXTRAORDINARY, "WOW",THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH...MALCOLM'S LEGACY I BELIEVE CONTINUES TO GROW...HE WAS SUCH AN ASTOUNDING DEFENDER OF JUSTICE AND BLACK NATIONALIST...
fascinating.
Rip Malcolm X 5/19/15-2/21/65
Peace and Love Brother Malcolm
Wow what an incredible journey
I wonder why we didn't even read about Malcolm X whilst we wrote essays on MLK jr.
I am so here for this! lets go.

Nice video
Thank you so much
is there a video on Stokeley Carmichael?
What pains me most is that his assasins were fellow muslims
Thank you for the impactful lesson!
Love this
😮😊Thanks for this good information 😊 Take care.
I got to be the 10k like. That was kinda cool. Amazing video!
another great video!
Sounds like Booker T
You stated Malcolm X was shot 7 times. Many other sources say the autopsy stated he was shot 21 times. I wonder why there is so much confusion around this topic. 🤔
There will never be a black power movement...because we don't control the money or resources...but what is more important is a black conscious movement...that will affect the financial system greatly.
My brother I appreciate you making a presentation about Brother Malcolm. However, this video is about 90% correct. The entire truth can be explained by THMLFM.
Thisnis Highly Historic.
👊🏿✊🏿👏🏿👍🏿
I'd comment but you tube doesn't allow that for some reason.
✊🏽
hes the reason colored ppl have rights and raised this legend sacrificed his life for others freedom
👍👏👍👏👍
6:23 aren't those things universal for the lower classes regardless of race?
Man times have changed
aaaaaaaaamaaaaaaazing video
🔥
It was “Power to the People” it was never Black Power!
🎉😢😊🎉
can someone give me a summery of this so i can copy and paste it to my homework
Malcolm was handsome and intelligent, but he was full of venom 💥
We have always had surnames as they generally refered to our family which either had a family job e.g. Smith, Hatton, tailor, or our lineage McCarthy, McDonald, and was generally a form of pride of where we come from which. And I'm sure the surnames that Africans were given related to something from their homeland.
amazing video
Great video
