Malcolm X was assassinated 50 years ago. As a cultural and civil rights icon, his message has been summed up as one of violence, starkly contrasting to the non-violent message of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The complexities of Malcolm's life, from his birth in Omaha to his assasination in Manhattan, belies such a simple conclusion.
