Today is National Malcolm X Day, a moment to honor one of the most fearless and visionary leaders in Black history.
Malcolm X was born on May 19, 1925 — he would have turned 100 years old this coming Monday.

As we reflect on his centennial year, we remember a man who spoke truth to power — without apology. Malcolm X demanded justice, dignity and liberation for Black people “by any means necessary.”
His legacy challenges us not just to remember him, but to act — to speak boldly, organize strategically and walk in our power.
Today, we don’t just honor his memory — we carry his mission. Even a hundred years later, Malcolm’s voice still echoes in the struggle for freedom.
