Season 4 Episode 5
In this 16 minute podcast I highlight the legacy of Malcolm X by describing some of his most important ideas, his background, one of his most famous speeches "the Ballot or the Bullet" (1964), and articulating 10 of his most important quotes.
Malcolm X was one of the greatest intellectuals of the 20th century, but was indeed a contradiction. Through his efforts to form a local and international coalition he was a paragon for brotherhood of the underclass, but also a advocate for segregation of the black community from the white community in America. He indeed evolved greatly throughout his life time until his death in February 21, 1965 at the age of 39, but he always stood for political empowerment of all marginalized people especially blacks and especially for self reliance economically and self respect in the face of brutality.
