Malcolm X - A Remembrance

wallpaper2_640
I first heard of Malcolm-X long after his death. I always enjoy characters who are rebel rouzers and speak their minds in direct and non-compromising fashion. I respect individuals who are willing to voice--and voice it with strength--their opinion and rally people out of their day to day stupor into demonstrations and possibly revolutions. Malcolm-X was such a person.

A leading figure in the 20th-century movement for black liberation in the United States, and arguably its most enduring symbol.Malcolm X has been called many things: Pan-Africanist (see Pan-Africanism), father of Black Power, religious fanatic, closet conservative, incipient socialist (see Socialism), and a menace to society.
