May 19 is the 97th physical day anniversary of human rights activist, Malcolm X, a.k.a. el-Hajj Malik el-Shabazz. Often misunderstood as a hate preacher and an advocate for violence, simply because he encouraged Black people to love themselves.
After enduring centuries of emotional, psychological, and physical slavery in the wilderness of North America, many Black people thought that assimilating with their oppressors was what determined their freedom and success. However, Malcolm X utilized the theology of his Garveyite upbringing, as well as that from the Nation of Islam, in advocating Americanized-Africans to be a self-determining people.
His Organization of Afro-American Unity was established months earlier specifically to address these issues, and he utilized that platform perfectly. Having recently conducted his hajj to Mecca, and also visiting several North African countries, helped expand his global views. While implementing the Pan African paradigm of his upbringing, he was presenting vastly new ideas to the general public.
By the time of his February 21, 1965, assassination, Malcolm X had become a threat to the global colonial powers, and is regarded as one of the most influential people in United States’ history.
