Macolm X
A man was brought into this world on May 19,1925 to serve his people and help them open many doors. This man started of as a nobody and is now known to the world as being one of America's greatest Civil Rights leaders. Malcolm X Little was the 4th child born to Reverend Earl and Louise Little. He also had 3 half siblings. His dad believed in self-determination and worked for the unity of black people and tried to teach Malcolm the same way. His dad tried to raise Malcolm to be aware of his ethnic background and dignity. Violence was always sparked by white people that were trying to stop black people such as Rev. Little. (Malcolm's father) After he was born his family quite a few times before he they finally settled in Lansing, Michigan. His father became active in the University of Negro improvements Assoc. he also go involved in the Black Baptist Church. Throughout Malcolm's life he was dedicated to black people. I guess you could say that he followed in the footsteps of his father. Even though Malcolm, his brothers, sisters, and parents were all shot, burned out of their homes, harassed, and threatened they still fought for their freedom and for what they believed in. This culminated in the assassination of
Here is just a few of Malcolm's most powerful words. He did grow out of this stage, but it took him a while to get out of it. I feel what I'm saying now id for myself. He was taught as a child to hate whites so that is what he grew up believing. He became acquainted with hoodlums, thieves, dope peddlers, and pimps. He went to prison and that time gave him some time to pull himself together. HE graduated 8th grade with good grades, just as he thought his father would have wanted him to do. He thought it was so amazing that people of all different ethnic beliefs could all eat of the same plate and drink from the same glass. But I believe that if it wasn't for this stage, Malcolm would have never become that man that he became. While he lived in Harlem he was rowdy and got into a lot of trouble. It appears that Malik Shabazz went through five stages in his short life. The fourth stage of his life was when he went to the Nation of Islam. His commitment helped build the organization nation-wide, while making him and international figure. On February 21 he was preparing to give a speech at a New York hotel when three black men shot him.
