GENERAL - Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Both Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. are well-known Civil Rights activists. But that's not all they have in common. Do some quicjk web research to find at least five things they have in common (really, at least FIVE, count 'em!). Then find five other things that they do not have in common. Once you've listed your ten items, then I want you to make an evaluation: which of the two, Malcolm X or Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., had a more lasting effect on the world? Why?

SORRY COME AGAIN
Malcolm X and Martin Luther King are both remembered as
leaders who fought for a difference in black America. Both
tried to bring hope to blacks in the United States. They
also tried to instil within blacks power and strength so
they could rise above all the hatred that surrounded them,
but both of them had very different ways of promoting their
message. Malcolm X had a much more extremist approach. Many
say that this approach came from his neglectful childhood
and early adulthood. King had a much more calm approach.
Some have said that this non-violent approach came from his
safe, middle-class environment. Even though they were
different in addressing their messages about black respect
and pride, they both had the same goal in mind. That goal
was to achieve equality between all races.
one thing that martin luther king and malcum x shared and that also had in common is that they both are leaders in there relgious ways and that they both had there own things to belive in they both were afican american also they both changed society...............jennifer

1. was a famous leader of the American civil rights movement
2.both were very important to African Americans during this time.
3.they both were killed
4.they both were african americans
5.bothe grew up with tauntging racism.
i think they both tryed to help people malcolm x showed that people could really changed if they really tryed and put there mind to it..and martin luther king tried to help the world..so african americans can be equal just as white men and women..

One they had in common was that they were both african american fighting for they rights and beliefs.Second is that they both assasinated.Three because they were both arrested. Four because they were both both religious leaders. And five because they were oppresed.
JUstine rodriguez
The similarities between Malcolm X and Martin Luther King is that they both wanted their race to be treated with respect and not hate. They both made big civil rights movements. They both wanted to make a big change in the world and they were born around the same year. They would speak publicly about what the white people were doing to the black people and how hey should start to take some action. Their differences was that Malcolm X was in the Nation of Islam and Martin Luther King was Christian. Malcolm X was more militant, but MLK was more peaceful.
