Arguably so, as he rejected integration that Martin Luther King had been campaigning for (he believed King was a traitor to the Black American race) and laughed at the idea of non-violence. He encouraged many Black Americans living in the ghettos of New York to defend themselves against police brutality, although he never really took part in any violence and sometimes moved in to stop it. He was anti-Semetic and believed that White people were greedy and corrupt, inferior to Black people and that their society was doomed. He certainly went further than promoting just Black Pride, or Black Power.
In the last year of his life, he fell out with the Nation of Islam, travelled to Africa, made a pilgramage to Mecca, completely reconsidered his extremist views and even briefly met Martin Luther King in Washington DC. He was assassinated by three people from his former group; his last words were "Brothers! Brothers please! This is a house of peace!"

In the late 1960s, as black activists became more radical, Malcolm X and his teachings were part of the foundation on which they built their movements. The Black Power movement,[69][228] the Black Arts Movement,[69][229] and the widespread adoption of the slogan "Black is beautiful"[230] can all trace their roots to Malcolm X.
