  • Summary

  • This year marks 60 years since of the assassination of Malcolm X, a civil rights leader who pierced the consciousness of a racially divided nation. In 1966, three men were convicted in his shooting death, two of whom were exonerated in 2021. Revelations from the overturning of those convictions has led to a $100 million lawsuit, filed last November, by the three daughters of Malcolm X. In it, they accuse the NYPD, FBI and CIA of playing a role in the murder of their father. What really happened the day Malcolm X was murdered and how can we understand his significance to civil rights in America? Peniel Joseph, an American scholar, teacher, and public voice on race issues, joins The Excerpt to discuss the 60-year legacy of Malcolm X.
