Very sad, but uplifting as well.
I wonder what would have happened if he were not killed -- how much more he would have "evolved".
BTW: I think Elijah Mohammed is a scum bag.
The jury is still out on Farrahkan. I know Malcom's daughter blamed Farrahkan for her father's death, and tried to hire a hit man to kill him.

I thought it was a very good film, but then again, I expect nothing less from PBS.
You're right about Mohammed.

4. I think history will be kind to Malcolm |

But, I'm a fan.
When was that program made, anyway. It seems that some of the people in it look younger than they are now.

Betty Shabazz died in 1997.
Her very own grandson set a fire because she tried to punish him, and she was burned badly.
