Biografie 📅 15 Februari 1965 📍 Verenigde Staten

At an OAAU rally three days after his home was firebombed, Malcolm returned to the Audubon Ballroom and spoke about the danger facing his family and organization. The meeting showed that threats had not stopped his public work. A related Democracy Now! link in the video field points to a videotaped address from about a week before the assassination; it is contextual footage, not a recording of this rally. FBI summaries describe the event through the bureau's surveillance lens; the speech itself provides a fuller account of how he interpreted the attack and the political conflict around it.
