So yesterday was the anniversary of Malcom X's death. He was assassinated on February 21, 1965 while addressing a group of some 400 people at an event for the Organization of Afro-American Unity. He was shot in chest and pronounced dead some time after.
"America needs to understand Islam, because this is the one religion that erases from its society the race problem." Malcolm X
I would like to point out that Google had no doodle for Malcolm X yesterday. He has also never had a doodle for his birthday! But, other random individuals, such as Mary Blair have. Some random Physicist from the late 19th century, Heinrich Hertz gets a doodle today for proving the existence of electromagnetic waves. Big woop if you ask me! If I was google, I would have given Malcolm X a Doodle.
Agreed! Shame on Google - Malcolm X was far more important for all of us not only the African American community - and this is supposed to be African-American month. Shame, Google!
