Event Overview

Malcolm X (1925-1965) was a Black Muslim minister and National Spokesman for the Nation of Islam. After rising from an early life of drug abuse and petty criminal behavior, this respected yet controversial political figure confronts a personal moral crisis: his own human bigotry. His driving quest for knowledge, self-critique and conversion to Islam changes him into an internationally revered, though still controversial, spokesman for the cause of universal human rights. Colorado Humanities presents, as part of our Black History Live Tour 2018, a portrayal of Malcolm X by eminent national humanities and Chautauqua scholar Charles Everett Pace. This portrayal will show how marginal outsiders become influential insiders. Participants have a unique opportunity to talk with Malcolm X and with Charles Everett Pace.

This event is free and open to the public.
