This lecture will explore the transformative life of Malcolm X, one of the most influential figures of the 20th century. From his early years and his search for faith to his profound spiritual awakening during his pilgrimage to Makkah, Malcolm X’s journey reshaped his worldview and deepened his commitment to justice. His evolving vision of equality, freedom, and dignity extended beyond race and nationality, making him a global advocate for universal human rights.

This lecture is part of the Visionary Leaders Program, an ongoing initiative with the Islam and Global Affairs program at CIS, aimed at spotlighting transformative leaders who made a significant impact on global history.

It will feature distinguished scholars Dr. Recep Senturk and Dr. Akel Ismail Kahera, who will provide insights into Malcolm X’s intellectual legacy and enduring relevance in contemporary struggles for justice and human rights.

This event will be held in English.
