Question

Malcolm X:

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Malcolm X believed in black nationalism and advocated for the idea of economic and political autonomy for African Americans. He did not support integration efforts and had a critical view of the Civil Rights Movement led by groups like the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. While he believed in the empowerment of black people, he also felt that the Black Power movement went too far in some cases. He did not cite Booker T. Washington as a direct inspiration, but he did reference him in some of his speeches as an example of an earlier African American leader who advocated for self-reliance and economic independence.
