Malcolm X protested for the civil rights of African-Americans in the United States in the 1960s. He is often accused of advocating violence because of his use of radical language. But Malcolm only advocated the use of violence as a form of self defense. He threatened the use of violence by his people as a deterrant to those who would use it on them.
