Malcolm X
Malcolm X was a prominent African American civil rights activist and a key figure in the struggle for racial equality in the United States during the 1960s. He was known for his powerful oratory and advocacy for the rights of Black Americans, often emphasizing a more militant approach compared to other leaders of the time. His visit to Smethwick, England, in February 1965, marked a significant moment in the global fight against racism, as he highlighted the discrimination faced by Black and Asian communities in Britain. Just days after this visit, he was assassinated, making his contributions to civil rights even more poignant.
