Biography 📅 29 October 1964 📍 Nigeria

In Lagos, Malcolm discussed factionalism as a challenge facing African politics and continued meeting political and student audiences. His comments were part of a specific conversation about postcolonial power, not a claim that African societies were inherently divided. He described a tour intended to learn about conditions across the continent and to connect those struggles with Black freedom in the United States.
