Join us today 5:30 CST as we raise the question:

 

50 years since the asasination of Malcolm X does his words still have relevance?

 

His funeral was held on February 27, 1965 at Faith Temple Church of God in New York City. "All of us sitting here tonight, men and women, black and white, can stand a little taller because a man like Malcolm X walked on our earth, lived in our midst, smiled his smile on the face of Harlem," said Ossie Davis, an actor, director, writer and social activist, in a speech delivered at the funeral

 

"You are not suppose to be so blind with Patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong no matter who says it."

 

" Im for truth no matter who tells it, Im for justice no matter who its for or against".
