Part 2: 50 Years After Murder, Malcolm X Remembered by Daughter Ilyasah Shabazz & A. Peter Bailey | Democracy Now!

Part 2: 50 Years After Murder, Malcolm X Remembered by Daughter Ilyasah Shabazz & A. Peter Bailey | Democracy Now!

As Democracy Now! continues to mark the 50th anniversary of the
assassination of Malcolm X, we are joined by his daughter, Ilyasah
Shabazz, and friend, A. Peter Bailey. Both were inside the Audubon
Ballroom on Feb. 21, 1965, the day Malcolm X was shot dead. Shabazz was
just two years old, while Bailey was among the last people to speak with
Malcolm X that day.


Shabazz is a community organizer, motivational speaker and author of
several books, including the young adult-themed "X: A Novel" and a
memoir, "Growing Up X." Bailey is a journalist, author and lecturer who
helped Malcolm X found the Organization of Afro-American Unity and
served as one of the pallbearers at his funeral. Bailey is the author of
several books, including "Witnessing Brother Malcolm X, the Master
Teacher." Shabazz and Bailey discuss the circumstances surrounding
Malcolm X’s killing and share personal reflections on his life and
legacy.
