In this episode, Lou shares an extended reflection on Malcolm X that is attuned to the memory and legacy of John Brown. Going beyond easy, almost cliché use of Malcolm's words, Lou draws on his background as a Malcolm X biographer to reflect upon both the strategic and personal approach of the memorable black leader to John Brown's legacy.

This May 19, 2025 is the centennial of Malcolm X's birth. With one foot in the antebellum era and another foot in the Civil Rights era, the stretch may be challenging, but it's well worth the effort.

Happy 225th Birthday, John Brown. Happy 100th, Malcolm.
