Widely celebrated as a vocal advocate for Black empowerment during the Civil Rights Movement, Malcolm X was also viewed as a controversial figure accused of preaching racism and violence. In this episode of the Second Draft Project, John Quincy Broadway and Sangmin Kim revisit the legacy of Malcolm X: the man, the myth, and his movement. Who was he? Why were people taught to be afraid of him? How did our media landscape fail to respect him and his impact? Tuning in, you’ll hear from other Black Muslims, historic members of the Black Panther Party, USC students, vendors at Leimert Park, and many others about the role that the press plays in shaping the image of revolutionaries and how some of the radical ideas that Malcolm X championed continue to inspire people today. We also offer some insight into the Second Draft Project and its mission to revise the “first draft of history,” which has often painted influential people of color in a negative light.
