∙ 8y agoOne of the objectives of the Civil Rights Movement was to shed light on and address unfair discriminatory practices. Malcolm X (if nothing else) shed light on many deplorable conditions faced by people of African descent. When Malcolm X was featured in a week-long television special with Mike Wallace in 1959 he most certainly shed light on unfair discriminatory practices. While it is not possible to accurately measure his impact, it is fair to say that he impacted the Civil Rights movement by helping to expose discriminatory practices which ultimately led to significant changes in what the legal system declared unlawful.
For example, a number of laws were put into place that had a significant impact on the lives and civil rights of Black people. For instance, from 1959-1965, sixteen states passed fair housing laws that prohibited racial, religious, and national origin discrimination in various sectors of the private housing market. In 1954 the US Supreme Court in Brown v. Board of Education declared segregation in public schools unconstitutional, nullifying the earlier judicial doctrine of "separate but equal." In 1965, President Johnson signed the US Voting Rights Act of 1965. This act prohibited literacy tests and poll taxes which had been used to prevent blacks from voting.

Do you think the Civil Rights Movements of the 1960s would have had the same impact if they had been lead by Malcolm X instead of Martin Luther King?
No, certainly not. The consequences' of the Civil Rights Movement would have been different if they had been lead by King instead of Malcolm. The reason behind this is that both of them belonged to different cultures and religion. They both opened their eyes in two different environments that had a huge impact upon the establishment of their personalities. King was raised in an environment which was well-organized and cared for education whereas Malcolm was provided with a family that was unprivileged and went through several hardships. Malcolm believed that there was no equality and that blacks had to retaliate against the white's in order to gain rights. Whereas, King believed that all races are equal and that love was the only cure. The Civil Rights Movement would have been far more peaceful if it had been lead by King. Malcolm was a man who had deadly plans and was sure to use force against whites in any case. The difference would certainly have brought about a change in the American History as well as a huge impact upon the Civil Rights Movement. -Regards, Hope it helps.
