The Black Panther Party and Malcolm X

Malcolm X was assassinated by the nation of Islam before he could really develop this new trajectory that he was on. The Black Panther Party picked up where X had left off, and I think it would be very hard to imagine the Black Panther Party arising how it did without the earlier works of people like Haywood and Malcolm X. MLK for much of his time tended to support a more liberal integrationist line against the militant black nationalism and Marxism of that time. So these contradictions between black nationalism, liberal integrationism into capitalism, and militant class struggle Marxism continue to play out in the black liberation movements within the United States today.
