Rediscovering Louise Little: The Pan-African Matriarch's Legacy in Grenada's Pilgrimage to Honor Malcolm X’s Mother

As Malcolm X’s centenary approaches, Black advocates aim to honor his mother, Louise Little, through a pilgrimage connecting the global African Diaspora. Born in Grenada, Louise was a vital activist before being institutionalized for nearly 25 years. The four-day event, "Echoes of Greatness," will celebrate her legacy along with economic empowerment and cross-generational dialogue, featuring speakers like Dr. Julius Garvey and Edwidge Danticat. The pilgrimage underscores the importance of recognizing the contributions of Black women in history, fostering unity among people of African descent.
