Malcolm X (1925-1965), born Malcolm Little, was an African American Muslim minister and human rights activist. Initially advocating for Black separatism as a prominent figure in the Nation of Islam, he later embraced Sunni Islam and broadened his views to include racial unity and cooperation after leaving the organization. His powerful speeches and writings addressed issues of racism, inequality, and self-determination, profoundly influencing the Civil Rights Movement.
