Malcolm X isn't his REAL name. The Malcolm was given to him by one of his teachers and the X is an unknown thing in math, so that's how he made his name... Malcolm 'Unknown'
Where did the last name Stotts come from?
Back in the 1800's slave owners had a last name. The slaves didn't have last names and took their owner's last names and would pass their last name on for many generations to come. If Stotts ancestors were colored that's where the name came from. If it wasn't I don't know.
