| Malcom X | Martin Luther King Jr. |
Can all races get along? | Segregation – All races should be separate and leave one another alone | Integration – All races should live and interact with each other |
Faith | Muslim | Christian |
Methods | Violence might be necessary when protests are not enough, but also try boycotts and protests and speeches. | Never use violence. Instead, use boycotts, protests, speeches, etc. |
National Identity | Be proud of your race and consider yourself a nation of your race instead of your country | Be proud of your American identity and your race at the same time. The goal is for all races to be part of our nation. |
Imagine you are an African-American during the Civil Rights movement. You have just heard speeches from Malcom X and Martin Luther King Jr. What are their similiarties? What are their differences? Whose approach do you like better? Which man would you choose to follow?
