Malcolm X

The rise and fall: Malcolm X (nee Little) came to Harlem from Nebraska by way of Boston to become one of America's most influential (and controversial) leaders — and an icon of black nationalism. Starting out as a a petty criminal, Malcolm X later founded a mosque in Harlem for the Nation of Islam. He was shot while giving a speech at Harlem's Audubon Ballroom in 1965. His funeral was held in the neighborhood's Faith Temple Church of God. Part Four of I Remember Harlem explores Malcolm X's role in the tumultuous sixties; see schedule for times.
