he was significant in the emergence of black power because:

he caused the setting up of black power and the black panthers

this caused him to have close relations to Stokley Carmichael a member of black power

he also would be associated with the Black Panther leader Heuy Newton , Bobby Seale and later Eldridge Cleaver

he offered the younger generation of blacks a more aggresive option to Martin Luther King (for a campaigning method)

he was a representitive of Elijah mohammed who ended up being given credit for what Malcolm X told about (this is before Malcolm went to mecca a place of holiness for Muslims)

He was similar to Martin Luther King in that he was a very good speaker (quotes can be found at brainyquote.com) but he may have appealed more to Muslims than MLK because he was a Muslim himself (MLK was a christian)

He is also very significant in that he got killed by the black Muslims (they feel he betrayed them by changing his opinions on whites at mecca) which made the media portray him very badly

He may be most significant though in that he has had an effect in Americans having racial eqaulity today
