Malcolm Little was born eighty-three years ago yesterday, on May 19th, 1925, assassinated February 21, 1965, in Harlem. He was just thirty-nine years old when he was murdered in a hail of bullets. Malcolm’s life was full of reinvention and he was a man ahead of his time.  This speech, entitled “By Any Means Necessary,” was given in the last year of his life.  To find out more about his assassination, his plans to unite the Civil Rights and Black Nationalist movements, and three missing chapters of his autobiography click here.
