Malcolm X

If you've never heard Malcolm X speak before, you should. The following video is from 1964 when Malcolm X was invited to go to Oxford. Oxford is one of the most famous universities in the European world and has a long history of debate. The fact that a Black Muslim with an eighth grade education (which you should have learned from our reading) was invited to speak there says something about the power of Malcom X's intellect and his importance as a leader.
