Cool. I've heard loads of people say something about Malcolm X in the past few days... Who is he?

he's an activist who fought for rights for black ethnicity. but it was a black person who murdered him in a middle of a speech.

That doesn't make sense... Why did he kill him?

He was asassinated on 2/21/1965. I will give you my view on why in the most general terms.

He had the ability to make people listen. Who was listening you ask? Largely the black community. Whats the problem with that you ask? Black leaders at the time felt that they may lose their following to him, lose their position and power if people started looking at him instead. No no no , can't have that, kill him. But killers, you say, what if he would have done great things for the black community? Well that would be nice I guess but not at the expense of my popularity and power within the black community. You see, in order for me to have the money and power that I do have in my community, it is necessary for my community to feel that they need me for protection, guidance and answers, if I let them think for themselves, let them grow and learn, they will no longer need me for answers and where would that leave me? No thanks, leave them in the dark, let them suffer, it makes me rich. Malcolm X was beginning to mess that up for us black leaders so we killed him, and of course, we got away with it because whitey didn't mind at all.

You're doing a good job on this brain..Malcolm had fire in his eyes when he spoke, and I see it in this.
