Marshall Malcolm- XY

In the Virtual Museum, I chose two objects from chapter 29, Malcolm X and Thurgood Marshall. I select these objects because there were active in the same decade and help to give blacks civil rights. They were both significant figures of the civil rights movement in the 1960s and had different views of blacks in the US. Marshal, and Malcolm X were the most influential figures in the public rights movement from 1960 to 1965. Malcolm X's view was to separate blacks from the population to have better rights, and Marshall used the law system to help blacks achieve to have the same reason as whites. They had different views, but they worked towards freedom for blacks. Malcolm X and Marshall are essential for history in the civil rights movement because of the use of motivation and action that made sense in a certain period in US history.

Malcolm X's background reflects his views on civil rights for blacks. Malcolm X was born in Omaha, Nebraska; his father was a political activist and bullied and treated by whites in the outcome of his father's actions. He explains how his father uses black nationalism to send blacks the excellent news from Marcus Garvey with" back to Africa.” Malcolm X and his father's views had similar characteristics on black nationalism, and his experiences on racism as a child relates to his political views in the following years. These beliefs would create a more difficult task when Malcolm joined and later lead the Nation of Islam by changing the system from childhood until his death.

As a leader of the most influential black nationalist group in the US and a great view of black nationalism who see whites as evil to their hearts, Malcolm found himself not being a leader of the focal point of the Civil Rights Movement. Malcolm's beliefs focused on actions to free blacks from the US discrimination and did not want to follow the white system that terrorized the blacks for so long. Malcolm followed by his end if his life his actions on black separatism and open doors for accepting views of how the sign for the civil rights movement.

Thurgood Marshall's background was essential to understand his views for the civil rights movement. Marshall was born in Baltimore, Maryland, and denied from an all-white law school at the University of Maryland. In the following years, he used successful lawsuits to integrate schools and other university systems. Marshall uses his mind and skills to the white system by not denying him on his best attempts and creates opportunities for blacks across the globe. Marshall argued the civil rights cases before the Supreme Court, and later, he accepted to Supreme Court. Marshall signed to the Civil Rights Movement because of his actions to protect rights against segregation in public. Many of the protestors were arrested and in prison, and an outcome of their efforts and Marshall wanted them to have justice for legal defense.

Two of the most important civil rights leader are Malcolm X and Thurgood Marshall. When Malcolm had confidence for much of his life in black nationalism views that pointed blacks were treated horribly by whites. Marshall believes the cause of non-violent protestors through his opinions on the white system. Both Malcolm and Marshall use different skills and ways to accomplish their goals and help expand rights for blacks and change the nation we see today, and their success is impossible to forget in racism in the US.
