Malcolm X

 

I first got to know about Malcom X thru my African American Ulum Al Quran lecturer who became a controversial figure herself later on. She lent me his biography and it was a crash course on Islam in America for me. 

This was a man who went from being a convicted felon to a fiery influencer for the Nation of Islam. But he was also misled by a false prophet. He found a different path, but was eventually murdered. 

The documentary is currently airing on Netflix. It's an absorbing watch, to say the least.
