There is a big difference between being born as a black child today -and in the sixties. Today we are much closer to equal rights no matter the color of our skin, but in the sixties that was something you should fight for. One of the fighters was Malcolm X.
Malcolm X was a human rights activist as well as the author and speaker of the speech “The Ballot or the Bullet” delivered on April 3. 1964 at the Cory Methodist Church in Cleveland, Ohio.
