We speak with independent researcher Abdur-Rahman Muhammad, whose work is featured in the Netflix documentary “Who Killed Malcolm X?” and helped ignite widespread public support for two men falsely convicted of assassinating the civil rights activist in 1965. Muhammad was in the court room this week a judge exonerated 83-year-old Muhammad Aziz and the late Khalil Islam due to revelations uncovered by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office and the Innocence Project that key evidence was withheld at the trial. Aziz has maintained his innocence, and addressed the court after he finally received an official apology, saying his false conviction was “the result of a process that was corrupt to its core.” Muhammad says being in the courtroom was “surreal.” “To watch the government admit that these brothers were sent to prison for a crime they didn’t commit was stunning.”

Why There Will Never Be Another Malcolm X
In première gegaan op 6 aug 2023
When most people think of the civil rights movement, they think of Martin Luther King Junior., whose “I Have a Dream” speech, delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in 1963, and his acceptance of the Peace Prize the following year, secured his place as the voice of non-violent, mass protest in the 1960s.
Yet the success of the movement was only possible due to the foundation laid by fiery leaders before him. Among them stands Malcolm X, a man who emerged from the depths of adversity to become one of the most resonant and influential voices of the civil rights movement. His journey, marked by personal transformation and an unyielding commitment to justice, is a testament to the power of resilience and the pursuit of truth.
Malcolm X was a different kind of leader, a true trailblazer whose spirit was forged in the face of adversity. Born into a society that sought to confine him, he rose above the limitations imposed upon him, becoming a symbol of resilience and determination. Through his unwavering commitment to civil rights, he paved the way for an entire generation to find their voice, their purpose, and their power.
In this video, we will delve into the life and times of Malcolm X, peeling back the layers to reveal a man whose indomitable spirit and unwavering commitment to justice have left an indelible mark on history. From his humble beginnings to his transformative journey of self-discovery, we will witness the evolution of a mind that dared to question and challenge the prevailing narratives of his era.
Malcolm X was a prominent civil rights activist and leader in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s. Here are some key points about his life and work:
Malcolm X was born Malcolm Little in 1925 in Omaha, Nebraska. His father was a Baptist minister who was an outspoken advocate for black self-determination, and his mother was a homemaker.
Malcolm’s family faced racism and violence, and when he was six years old, his father was murdered by white supremacists. His mother was later institutionalized, and Malcolm was sent to live with various foster families.
As a young man, Malcolm became involved in criminal activity and was sentenced to prison for burglary. While in prison, he became a follower of the Nation of Islam, a black nationalist and separatist religious movement.
After his release from prison in 1952, Malcolm became a prominent spokesperson for the Nation of Islam, advocating for black self-determination and denouncing white supremacy and racism. He changed his last name to X to symbolize his lost African heritage.
Malcolm’s fiery speeches and uncompromising stance on racial justice made him a polarizing figure. He criticized other civil rights leaders like Martin Luther King Jr. and advocated for black self-defense against white violence.
In 1964, Malcolm left the Nation of Islam and formed his own organization, the Organization of Afro-American Unity. He traveled extensively and met with leaders of various African nations to promote black unity and solidarity.
Malcolm’s outspoken views and activism made him a target of government surveillance and harassment. He was assassinated in 1965 while giving a speech in New York City, likely by members of the Nation of Islam who disagreed with his split from the organization.
Malcolm X’s legacy as a civil rights leader and advocate for black self-determination continues to inspire people today. His speeches and writings, including his autobiography, remain important works in the history of the struggle for racial justice in the United States.

3 Who Killed Malcolm X? New York to Pay $36 Million for Two Men Wrongfully Jailed For 1965 Murder
Back to menu IMPORTANT CONTENT
The city and state of New York have agreed to pay $36 million to settle lawsuits on behalf of two men wrongly convicted and imprisoned for decades for the 1965 assassination of Malcolm X. Muhammad Aziz and Khalil Islam were exonerated last year for the murder after investigators found “serious miscarriages of justice” in the case. They each spent more than 20 years in prison for a crime they did not commit, and Islam died in 2009 before his record was cleared. We speak to civil rights lawyer David Shanies, who represented the men in their lawsuit, and scholar Abdur-Rahman Muhammad, who helped spark the reopening of the case, and was featured in the 2020 Netflix documentary series “Who Killed Malcolm X?”

25 I Am Not Your Negro
In 1979 beschreef James Baldwin in een brief aan zijn literaire agent zijn volgende project, Remember This House. Het zou een revolutionair en persoonlijk boek worden over drie vermoorde vrienden: Malcolm X, Medgar Evers en Martin Luther King jr. Bij Baldwins dood in 1987 waren slechts dertig pagina’s van het manuscript klaar. In I Am Not Your Negro verbeeldt regisseur Raoul Peck het boek dat James Baldwin nooit afmaakte. Het resultaat is een radicaal, actueel onderzoek over ras in Amerika, waarbij Peck gebruik maakt van bijzonder archiefmateriaal en Samuel L. Jackson de teksten van Baldwin uitspreekt. De documentaire is een reis door de zwarte geschiedenis die de Burgerrechtenbeweging uit de jaren zestig verbindt met het huidige #BlackLivesMatter. De film stelt vragen bij de manier waarop Hollywood en de Amerikaanse samenleving met Afro-Amerikanen omgaan en uiteindelijk – via de levens en gewelddadige dood van Malcolm X, Medgar Evers en Martin Luther King jr. – waar Amerika voor staat. I Am Not Your Negro wordt uitgebracht in samenwerking met IDFA.
