Malcolm speaks in Paris about racism and international solidarity

Biography 📅 23 November 1964 📍 France

At the Mutualité in Paris, Malcolm addressed a French-speaking Black student audience and criticized US segregation, arguing that US leaders used integrationist language to conceal racial inequality. His Paris appearance extended his effort to bring the Black freedom struggle before international audiences. Contemporary press coverage is useful for confirming the event but must be read critically because it often framed his militancy through colonial-era racial stereotypes.
