{{tropeUseful Notes}}

'''Malcolm X''' (born '''Malcolm Little''', also called '''El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz''') was a leader of the American [[Civil Rights Movement]] and contemporary to [[Martin Luther King Jr]], assassinated in [[The Sixties|1965]]. While King was known for [[Mahatma Gandhi]] styled [[Civil Disobedience]], Malcolm X was known for a more militant response, which he deemed necessary to bring about positive change. Summed up in one speech as this:

{{quote| ''One of my reasons for going out on a limb as I have is to try and make white people be shocked, awake to some of their senses. Because if they don't awake they're gonna find out that this little Negro that they thought was passive has become a roaring, uncontrollable lion right in, right at their doorst-- – not at their doorstep-- – inside their house, in their bed, in their kitchen, in their attic, in their basement. And if you know that in time you can do something about it.''}}
