In Gaza, then under Egyptian administration, Malcolm visited Khan Younis refugee camp, a hospital and local mosques. He met Palestinian poet Harun Hashim Rashid, who recited a poem about refugees’ return; Malcolm copied it into his diary. The encounter connected Black diasporic histories of forced displacement with Palestinian dispossession after the 1948 Nakba. The framing here follows the diary-based scholarship and does not collapse distinct histories into one.
