Can Muslims live up to Malcolm X's legacy? | Professor Butch Ware

Help us expand our Muslim media project here: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/member... Donate to our charity partner Baitulmaal here: http://btml.us/thinkingmuslim Today on The Thinking Muslim, we are joined by Professor Butch Ware for a powerful conversation on some of the most urgent issues of our time. We examine white supremacy as a global ideology that continues to shape power, violence, and resistance, while reflecting on the legacy of Malcolm X and his uncompromising commitment to justice. Professor Ware explores Malcolm’s intellectual evolution and the clarity he brought to struggles against oppression through a Muslim lens, highlighting how his faith-inspired worldview continues to offer vital lessons for Muslims today, from grounding activism in moral clarity to standing in principled solidarity with the oppressed.
