An important piece of a notable interview from the Civil Rights Movement era. In this interview, Malcolm X states: "The guiding goal of every Muslim is to faithfully serve and follow The Honorable Elijah Muhammad." Malcolm X connected with the Nation of Islam while in prison from 1947 to 1948. He wrote to the Nation's leader, Elijah Muhammad, who advised him to renounce his criminal past and move forward in his religious practice. The two kept regular correspondence over the following decade as Malcolm X's influence grew, both in religious spheres and in the Civil Rights movement. In the early 1960s, Malcolm X's devotion to the Nation of Islam and Muhammad was questioned as public issues arose. These issues included: Malcolm X's anger over the lack of Nation of Islam response to unprovoked LAPD violence against Muslims in 1962, allegations of Muhammad engaging in sexual affairs with young secretaries in 1963, and Malcolm X's censorship by the Nation of Islam following comments made on the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Malcolm X officially announced his split from the Nation of Islam on March 8, 1964, just one year after this article was published. He faced intimidation by the Nation of Islam and was heavily monitored by the FBI. Malcolm X was assassinated on February 21, 1965, in New York City.
