National Action Network Honors Malcolm X’s 100th Birthday with Family, Ben Crump & Sharpton

On May 19, the National Action Network (NAN) will host a powerful tribute marking what would have been Malcolm X’s 100th birthday, uniting family members, civil rights leaders, and advocates at the House of Justice in New York City. The event will feature Rev. Al Sharpton, Attorney Ben Crump, and Ilyasah Shabazz, Malcolm’s daughter, as they reflect on his enduring legacy and the unfinished work of justice. “Malcolm was taken from us 60 years ago, but his legacy has only grown,” said Sharpton. The commemoration serves as both remembrance and rallying cry, especially amid ongoing battles for equity and inclusion in a post-George Floyd America. As the nation remembers one of its most fearless voices, NAN ensures that Malcolm X’s fire for truth, power, and Black liberation continues to burn bright.
