Malcolm X

Malcolm X 1992

7.54

En biografisk film over den svarte menneskerettighetsforkjemperen Malcolm X, som predikerte et svart, muslimsk alternativ for den store svarte befolkningen i USA på 60-tallet. I motsetning til ikke-volds alternativet til Martin Luther King, mente Malcolm X at den svarte rasen måtte bruke alle midler for å sikre sine rettigheter. Filmen skildrer ungdomsårene til Malcolm Little, med vekt på den tiden han var småkriminell kokainmisbruker i New York og Boston. Han settes i fengsel og kommer i kontakt med en representant for en svart muslimsk motstandsbevegelse, og blir etter hvert et karismatisk samlingspunkt for afro-amerikanske negre. Malcolm X var en kontroversiell predikant, ikke bare overfor den hvite rasen som selv påpekte og la vekt på rasistiske uttalelser fra ham, men også fra rivaliserende svarte grupper.
