Today is a special day. It’s the birthday of two very important figures in black history. Yuri Kochiyama was a Japanese American human rights activist and vocal leader in Asian American empowerment. She is notable as one of the few prominent non-black supporters of the Black Liberation Movement. It is also the birthday of Malcolm X, the famous civil rights activist.

Yuri Kochiyama and her family were rounded up by the American government and forced to live behind barbed wire during World War ll.

She participated in sit-ins and invited Freedom Riders to speak at weekly open houses in her family’s apartment.

In October of 1963, Kochiyama and her eldest son were arrested with hundreds of other people, mainly African-Americans, during a protest.

Malcolm X walked into the courthouse where activists were waiting to hear their civil disobedience charges, and he was quickly mobbed my adoring activists. Kochiyama was one of them. She felt out of place being a Japanese among blacks, but finally mustered up the courage to call out to him and say, “Can I shake your hand?”

“What for?” he demanded.

“To congratulate you for giving direction to your people,” she finally mustered.

Malcolm X smiled and extended his hand. Thus the brief friendship of Malcolm X and Yuri Kochiyama began.

She is pictured above, holding a recently assassinated Malcolm X as he lay dying.

Rest in Power to two very brave and extraordinary people.

What the f*ck is less than “matters”? “Black lives exist,” can we say that?
