24 dic 1951 anni - Malcolm X becomes spokesman of Islam [SOCIAL]

Descrizione:

Malcolm X becomes the spokesman for the Nation of Islam;

preached separatism and racial pride. Focused on appalling economic and social conditions in inner cities and rejected the idea of integration.

Rejected the non-violent emphasis of the SCLC.

Very popular with black people living in northern ghettos; appealed to them in a way that MLK never could.

Compare with Marcus Garvey, evidence for AAs advancing their rights in terms of self-belief and confidence.
