4 scenes from the Watts Riots, 1965

Malcolm X Joins the Nation of Islam while in prison Critical of Dr. King’s methods Believed blacks should separate from white society because whites were the cause of black’s horrible condition After pilgrimage to Mecca he changes his views towards whites begins to agree with Dr. King, critical of Nation of Islam Feb. 21, 1965: Malcolm X is assassinated by radical Muslims

Black Power Started by Stokely Carmichael, member of SNCC Black people need to state their own goals and lead their own organizations, become more militant Carmichael urges SNCC to stop recruiting whites

Black Panthers A political party founded by Huey Newton and Bobby Seale Advocated self-sufficiency for black communities, full employment, and decent housing Established daycare centers, free breakfast programs & medical clinics, homeless assistance Engaged in many shoot-outs w/ police; investigated by the FBI

Dr. King’s Reaction Objected to the Black Power movement (too separatist), let’s not alienate whites who are supporting us, violence leads to violence 4/4/1968: MLK assassinated at Lorraine Motel in Memphis Accused killer is James Earl Ray, who confesses but recants a day later saying police coerced confession and he was set up Rioting breaks out. Presidential candidate Bobby Kennedy pleads with people to stop the violence
