Malcolm X
Malcolm X made the pilgrimage to Mecca, known as Hajj, once in April 1964. This journey significantly impacted his views on race and religion, leading him to embrace a more inclusive perspective on Islam and humanity. He described the experience as transformative, witnessing the unity among Muslims of different races.
Malcolm X earned his name from a religious journey he took to Mecca in 1964, where he adopted the X to symbolize his lost African surname.
