Another angle of discussion on the legacy Malcolm X from Voxunion…
To commemorate the birthday of Malcolm X we convened a very special 2 hour program, a round table discussion featuring in the first hour Glen Ford Executive Editor of Black Agenda Report.com, Dr. Mark Bolden of the Association of Black Psychologists and Kali Akuno of the Malcolm X Grassroots Movement and US Human Rights Network. In hour 2 we had Kalonji Olusegun current vice-president of the Republic of New Afrika, former vice-presidential nominee of the Green Party Rosa Clemente and Dr. Todd Burroughs of Morgan State University. Ours was a round table discussion critical of recent scholarship on Malcolm X and in praise of the man himself and the ideas he represented. We attempted to re-focus Malcolm in the midst of all surrounding confusion.
