Best Answer

Marin Luther King believed in nonviolence. Example in his opinion if someone threw a rock at you you took it. At first Malcolm believed in black and white separation and self defence. Until he went to Mecca then he changed his opinions and went with something like Martin Luther King did.

Why does Malcolm x not approve of martin Luther's king jr's approach to securing civil rights?

Malcolm X didn't believe in integration because he didn't feel that Black People should go to places where they were not wanted and would be treated with hostility. He (Malcolm X) believed that Black People should be about establishing their own institutions as a free and independent people. Malcolm X was less optimistic about the promise of America than Martin Luther King, Jr. MLK believed that peaceful cohabitation with whites was possible and that unjust laws in the United States could be removed. MLK believed the United States Constitution to be proof that America had a conscious and if that conscious could be pricked than positive change could come. Malcolm X saw the words of the U.S. Constitution juxtaposed with the reality of American life for Black People as proof not of America's conscious but rather of America's hypocrisy. Both men had the same goals just different means to achieve those goals.
