Malcolm X By Siramad Gonzalez


This film  is about the big Malcolm X. Malcolm X was born in Omaha, Nebraska. The Midwest, during this period, there was a lot of discrimination and racial violence. Malcolm's family moves to Michigan were they continue to experience a lot of violence. White people murdered Malcolm's father and forced his mother into a mental hospital.  After living in a Michigan detention home and completing the eighth grade, Malcolm moves to Boston, Massachusetts to live with his half-sister Ella  [although this all may be factual it is not the way much of it is presented in the film].

In Boston Malcolm quickly begins to get into the nightlife. Years go by and he ends up going to jail. When he was in jail he became a Black muslim and then the leader of Islam. He had kids with his wife and everything was going great.

Shortly after him and his wife were receiving threats of some people that hey would get killed. They were terrified. Malcolm had a presentation that he usually  has with all his people when he gets on stage he gets assassinated in front of his wife and kids. Malcolm's legacy will always stay. He showed us how to handle things without violence and how we are all equal no matter what race or color we are.
