History at the Library - Malcolm X : A Search for Identity

 

Sunday February 21, 2010 marks the 45th anniversary of the death (assassination) of Malcolm X, then known religiously as El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz.

 

 

The Afro-American Heritage Center will have a free public screening of the documentary, MALCOLM X: A Search for Identity, Saturday February 20 at the Rock Island Public Library's community room. The screening will began at 11:00 a.m., followed by group discussion. Feel free to bring your own refreshments.

 

One question of discussion will be, why did Malcolm change his last name to X? The Afro-American Heritage Center offered an opportunity for area youths to read, research and then write an essay on this American legend. The $50 cash prize remains unrewarded.
