Remembering Malcolm X 50 years ago today Minister Malcolm X was assassinated while giving a speech in Harlem, NY  Audubon Ballroom. 

In 1992 Director Spike Lee produced and directed  Malcolm X film.
Based on Autobiography of Malcolm X by Alex Haley.

I remember schooling my father and sharing my own personal beliefs on Malcolm X . Since, I was happy to share my news as being cast as an extra.  A family friend worked in the wardrobe department for the film and 40 acres and a mule.  
My dad had a views of Malcolm X that was solely based on negative information. 
Once my father read my copy of autobiography on Malcolm X he had a better understanding of Malcolm X the man.
He was a person, son, brother, husband and a father.
Who was brutally killed in front of his family.  My dad finally understood the importance of  Malcolm X the man his legacy.

Society had a negative take on the Nation of Islam and Minister Malcolm X partly because no one could understand how this one man full of knowledge and wisdom would not fall for nonsense and commanded respect.

Malcolm X was an African-American Muslim minister and a human and civil rights activist. His legacy still lives on through his daughters and through us...
