52 years ago today, Malcolm X was assassinated.
We lost one of the greatest truth speaker’s in this nation’s history. rest in peace to this amazing person, you sure haven’t been forgotten.
Despite freedom of information act requests throughout the years, New York still will not release records (of Malkolm X assassination) to the public and claim files would endanger the safety of police officers and constitute unwarranted invasions of privacy

Malcolm X stood for the black man to be respected for what he was, a man. He did say things that did come off as violent or pro-hate (he encouraged violence in self defense, not unprovoked aggression ). The man had anger, his own father was lynched when he was just a child. He used facts, he used speech, as his weapons. He is the farthest thing from evil, but he’s not a saint neither. He is just a man who wanted change for his people and demanded they be treated like human beings. America, the country that is for not just them, but us too. And he was willing to make that happen.
By any means necessary
