Presented into this world on the night of May 19, 1925, in Omaha, Nebraska a baby boy named Malcolm Little was born. Into the family of Father, J. Early Litte and Mother M. Louise Norton. His Father was a Georgia-born Baptist preacher and also oversaw Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association. While the Mother did the same in employment, yet she was born and raised in an island about 100 mi from the Venezuelan coast, called Grenada. In 1929 when Malcolm was at the age of 5 when his father was brutally murdered by a Black Legion, leaving his mother to take care of 8 children, including Malcolm Little. His Mother M. Louise Norton suffered a breakdown from economic and emotional anxiety, in result of this malcolm and his 7 other siblings were taken by the welfare department. Malcolm was later sent to a reform school in which he was the top of his class in grades and was interested in becoming a lawyer, but convinced during this time that being an African American would stop Malcolm from his dreams in becoming a lawyer. Knowing this Malcolm Little dropped out his eighth grade year and moved to Boston, Massachussetts then to New York in 1942, where he soon became immersed into a life of crime. In 1946 a few months before Malcolm's twenty-first birthday, he was sentenced to 10 years in a Massachusetts prison for burglary. In prison Malcolm learned the true value of eduacation by the direction of an inmate, giving Malcolm the self respect he needed as a black person, he also through his family found the empowering religious/cultural message of Elijah Muhammed's nation of Islam. Giving him the encouragement of the person he wanted to be Malcolm Little goes on to claim his fame to society.
In 1949, Malcolm Little changes his name to Malcolm X when he begins to correspond with Elijah Muhammad and converts to the Nation of Islam. After paroled from prison in 1952, he soon became a worker of his older brother in a furniture store. During the process of his job he would give speeches and hand out brochures that explained to many the analyzed ideas of the Nation of Islam. Malcolm X continued this process until he was a broadly known and an official spokesman of the Nation of Islam.
