After the hajj, Malcolm stopped in Beirut at the invitation of Sudanese scholar Malik Badri. American University of Beirut declined to host him, reportedly because of his anti-American stance, so he spoke at the Sudanese Cultural Center. Local coverage described a lively discussion, complicating US press portrayals of the reception as a riot. The episode reveals how Arab and African student networks created platforms when elite institutions closed theirs.
