the met. significant facilities. >> maybe air p&p will catch on and we'll use each other's toilets not remembering when we just held it on the ridiculist. thank you for watching. see you for another "360." witnessed: the assassination of malcolm x starts now. to many, he was the voice of reason. never afraid to challenge why the establishment of the cruelty black americans faced. to many more though, his efforts to end it opened up more wounds than they healed and no one more aware of the tension around him and within him than the man himself. in 1965 after a very public split with the nation of islam and its leader, elijah muhammad,

malcolm x under constant threat under watch by the fbi, cia and said many times he knew his life would soon be over. neither his fate nor his role in history was preordained. not just about how it ended but who he was and why he was killed. >> i don't worry. i tell you. i am a man who believed that i died 20 years ago. and i live like a man who is dead already. i have no fear whatsoever of anybody or anything. >> i feel as though he knew his life was in extreme danger. >> malcolm is tired. physically exhausted. he has been on the road. he has spent a lot of time trying to hold fast to his closest supporters and loyalists to get them to go along with him on this journey of his evolving on ideas, on race, on

revolution, on self-determination. his family is under siege. there are these skirmishes between followers and various people from the nation of islam. >> he foolishly acts. and try to make war against me. >> there are these articles being written in the newspaper of the mohammed speaks having him condemned as a traitor suggesting he's worthy of death for his betrayal and would be met with death if not for the mercy of elijah mohammed. >> we were well aware that his life was in danger. >> the media made malcolm this fiery, angry person. when in actuality, he was reacting to all of the injustice around him because he was a man of great compassion, of love. someone who was clearly

brilliant, clearly dedicated, impeccable integrity, and who was in a rush because he knew he was going to be killed. he said, you know, i am probably a dead man already. >> he felt and saw his mortality. he felt like these days ahead of him were going to be cut short. >> is your life in danger from the muslims and elijah mohammed's group? >> elijah mohammed has given the order to his followers that i am crippled or killed. >> he gives out this hearsay information. i am certain, he would have gotten death long ago instead of time running around to talk about it. he knew that he is guilty of things that many men for. so his fight against the messenger is, in fact, a fight against the god that sent the messenger. >> the night of february 13th,

malcolm, in his home in queens with his wife and four children was awakened by an explosion. someone had thrown a molotov cocktail into the windows. >> what irritated him is things descended to the level somebody was fire bombing a house with innocent, sleeping children in it. >> if anybody can bomb my house, they can put a rifle bullet through my head. it was my wife and children's lives at stake. >> it was a stressful time for him and still decided to press on. he scheduled a rally for february 21st in 1965. >> for the first time, to me, he looked a little down. and i don't ever remember him down before, even in the most dire circumstances.

>> chief, could you describe what happened here today? >> at about 3:15 p.m., there were about 400 persons present in the ballroom here representing an organization known as the afro-american unity organization headed up by malcolm x. and malcolm was addressing the audience from the speaker's platform. >> and he raised his hand in the muslim greetings like this. his right hand. at that point, a rumbling broke out behind us. >> i heard somebody shout, kill him. apparently, two men approached the speaker's room and discharged shots at him from apparently very close range. >> as i turn around quickly and next thing i saw was malcolm

falling down in a dead faint. >> my mother threw herself over her babies. and she yelled out, they're killing my husband. >> i heard shots. and i saw people crawling on the floor. i saw -- and so i got down too. and then when i was looking out and i saw someone look in amazement to the front, i knew they had shot my husband. >> sustained one shot in the lower right shin and the other six hit him in the chest and the body. >> i looked out at him and said, he's going to die. i kept saying to myself, he's going to die. he's going to die. >> immediately? >> no, he wasn't dead immediately. but expired there very shortly. >> malcolm is dead. this is when they assassinate

the president of the united states. >> the assassination of malcolm x was an unfortunate tragedy and it reveals that there are still numerous people in our nation who have degenerated to the point of expressing sin through murder and without being violently disagreeable. >> one of the best. he gave a whole bunch of little boys, negros and colored folk, an opportunity. >> j. edgar hoover sent a memo to new york office that explicitly stated, do something about malcolm x. we don't know what he meant by that. daughter: do you and mom still have money with that broker? dad: yeah, 20 something years now. thinking about what you want to do with your money?

daughter: looking at options. what do you guys pay in fees? dad: i don't know exactly. daughter: if you're not happy do they have to pay you back? dad: it doesn't really work that way. daughter: you sure? vo: are you asking enough questions about the way your wealth is managed? wealth management at charles schwab. in the country. we operate just like a city, and that takes a lot of energy. we use natural gas throughout the airport - for heating the entire terminal, generating electricity on-site, and fueling hundreds of vehicles. we're very focused on reducing our environmental impact. and natural gas is a big part of that commitment.

self-reliant, independent. stand up against injustice. it was during a time when lynchings were prevalent to say the least. and so my grandfather was assassinated also tied to the trolley tracks. >> malcolm's mother, louise, was unable to keep the family together. so she had a breakdown. social services came and split the family up. sent malcolm and his siblings to various foster homes. malcolm went to a white foster home and attended a predominantly white and secondary school. he was popular in school. he had charisma, even as a child. his classmates voted for him to be class president. >> most often, he was the only person of color in his school. and when he was i think about 12 years old, he did tell his favorite teacher, mr. astrowski,

that he wanted to be a lawyers. his teacher said negros can't be lawyers. he should be a carpenter, use his hands. >> in school, his half sister, in boston, tried to get him to visit her to kind of get her on track. malcolm went to visit ella in boston and was completely taken by urban culture. and was attracted to the hep cat movement. and jazz and the dancing and the clothes and the fashion and he gradually adopted this persona that became known as detroit red. as detroit red, malcolm drifted further away from the garvey roots of his family and to petty crime.

>> he was a gangster, he was a hustler. so those early years did expose him to some of the darker precincts of the black condition. >> malcolm hatched a plan to engage in a series of breaking and enterings. he took some of the merchandise to a pawnshop and when he retrieved a watch, the police were there to arrest him. while malcolm in prison, his family intervenes. his family had not given up on him. his brother began preaching to him and i think preach really to malcolm, well, we have found these teachings of islam. they remind of what our parents taught us in terms of black people need to do for self, need their own institutions and need

to be morally upright. >> elijah mohammed almost became like a surrogate father to him. and he truly believed in the work that elijah mohammed was doing and it was very similar to the work that his father was doing. >> i think a lot for you, always will. to go anywhere that i go. >> i was in prison. i was a very wayward criminal backward illiterate, whatever characteristics you can think of kind of person until i heard the teachings of the honorable elijah mohammed and because of the impact it gave me in a desire to reform myself and rehabilitate myself for the first time in my life and also being able to see the effect that it had upon others, this is what made me accepted. >> it was the love of elijah mohammed in that sell and the

folk from transformed him from malcolm little the gangster into malcolm x the greatest truth teller we've known about the black condition in the 20th century. >> prior to hearing what he teaches, i had no interest whatsoever in anything serious or any kind of educational pursuits. >> when malcolm came out of prison in 1952, he, you know, met elijah mohammed. elijah mohammed invited to stay with him and studied for a period of time. there was something about malcolm. some people just have this kind of magnetism when they walk in a room, everyone starts focusing on them. malcolm just had this kind of charisma. >> he knew how to talk to people. he could speak to them in a way that made things very clear. it was easy to believe what he was saying. because i was living it every

day. >> america was in the middle of a so-called civil rights movement. >> if you're going to talk about him, you have to understand that very clearly. >> there are people being literally murdered, hung from trees. >> in the southern states of this country, that was terrorism going on. >> shot arrested. that's the only way you can describe it. terrorism. people were being killed. bombed out of their homes. >> having dogs sick on them. >> if a dog is biting a black man, the black man kill the dog. when the black man is doing nothing but trying to advantage of what the government is supposed to, the black man should kill the dog or any two legged dog who sicks the dog on him. >> malcolm x did something very rare in the history of black leadership. every mention of the word integration by whites, he viewed

whites' fears, insecurities and anxieties as an afterthought. >> on down to the mouth of the white liberal in the street -- >> malcolm viewed white fears and anxieties as tertiary. what was the center was the need for black awakening. >> we believe that separation is the best way and the only sensible way, not integration. >> that puts him radically against the mainstream and white america. >> malcolm could speak in a way that resonated with people in those settings. >> there is nothing that the white man will ever do to bring about true citizenship, or civil rights recognition for black people in this country. nothing will they ever do.

they will always talk it but they won't practice it.

chickens coming home to roost. >> speaking for himself and not muslims in general. and malcolm has been suspended from public speaking for the time being. >> so when he attacked the u.s. nations state in the form of, you've got violence in your history, it's now come back visited on your young darling, jon f. kennedy, that was the worst thing that he could have said from elijah's point of view. >> while this was happening, kashs clay was training for his upcoming championship fight with sonny. he was exposed to the nation of islam. he invited malcolm to come to miami for a vacation. like, he knew malcolm was on this period of silence. he said bring your family. >> my father was his mentor. malcolm makes a few statements

mosque that was presented to me by the islamic council. >> not invited, malcolm isn't asked to speak. he pretty much feels shut out. he would say over and over again, any religion that does not allow me to be in power, to speak and work on behalf of the freedom of black people, i'll let that religion go. >> and basically said i'm about to leave the nation of islam. >> this, of course, was met with great anger and resentment by many in the nation of islam. >> muslim have excommunicated and are done with him. unless he wants to come back in line with the teachings and the moral principles of islam and the follower of the the honorable elijah mohammed. >> when he was out, i knew something was wrong. so i called him up the next day

and he came over. we spent days talking. we decided, we knew they wouldn't let him back. we have to set up an organization to do what we can for black folks. >> while all of this is happening, malcolm is in need of a recentering of himself, spiritually, politically, and he decided to make the pilgrimage to mecca. >> we had seen it before. there was something about '64 where he had seen the same thing. just seen it through different eyes. he had already seen black and white people come together. he was just still tied to a blind faith in elijah, so he didn't allow it to penetrate it so. >> he realized how much of islam he didn't know ritually. the actual experience of the ritual was overwhelming and transformative.

>> he went to mecca and reported that the religion of islam is a religion of brotherhood that includes all mankind. it caused a great deal of wrath in the heart and mind of elijah mohammed who has been teaching that the white race is a race of devils. >> the tensions at home are amping up with the nation of islam in part because of some of malcolm's words, right? and the attention he's receiving from law enforcement, from the fbi, domestically, from the cia internationally. it's also increasing. >> but he also knows that the nation of islam is very upset with him. >> why are they threatening you, elijah? >> well, primarily because they're afraid that i will tell the real reason that they've been, that i'm out of the black muslim movement which i never told. i kept it to myself. but the real reason is because

elijah mohammed, the head of the movement, is the father of 8 children by six different teenage girls who were his private personal secretary. most of the products we all buy are transported on container ships. before a truck delivers it to your store, a container ship delivered it to that truck. here in san diego, we're building the first one ever to run on natural gas. ships this big, running this clean, will be much better for the environment. we're proud to be a part of that. dad: he's our broker. he helps looks after all our money.

there. be out the building where the telephone booth was. he was out there. somebody shouted, get your hand out of my pocket very loud. and then a little bit of a tussle and malcolm responded by holding a hand up, something like hold on, hold on there, brothers. >> while i was in the telephone booth, i heard the shots. i ran into the audubon ballroom and people were running out by this time and they were screaming and crying and cursing. >> my mother put her body on top of us. she covered her babies. because there was the shooting. >> i don't know how many shooters are in there. i mean, this is while the smell of gun smoke is still in the air i'm crawling. my mind is focused on doing my job. >> in the audubon >> i'm in the ball room.

pandemonium is the only word i can use to describe the scene here. i was sitting in the first row and malcolm game on the stage and greeted the audience with a muslim greeting. as soon as he said it, i can't describe it. someone got up and fired shots. >> you could see a crowd over malcolm um on the stage. and i ran down, up on the stage. i still had my camera with me and i kept shooting pictures. >> someone opened the shirt and i saw all the bullets in his body. and i said to myself, he is going to die. because he was gasping. >> i should have never happened. it was the saddest moment of my life.

malcolm x had more impact. people began to see the truths he told. the love he displayed. the courage he exemplified, the vision for humanity he was after. >> and what was silenced was a man, a black man, who had thoroughly studied the system that existed in this country. who understood it very clearly and who was developing a cohesive plan to deal with it. >> there will come a time when black people wake up and become intellectually independent enough to think for themselves. >> his voice predicted the urban rebellions in 1968. his voice predicted the growing frustrations that african-americans would feel as it's slowed to a halt.
