The ideas of Malcolm X, Melanie Mayze

Having left the separatist and cultish Nation of Islam, Malcolm X developed rapidly towards a revolutionary class analysis. His final speeches identified the need for the oppressed to unite against the capitalist system as a common enemy and the greatest source of inequality. This workshop will discuss how Malcolm X's ideas can provide an example for the struggles of the oppressed and how his strategies and tactics might be applied to the work of revolutionary activists today.

Melanie Mayze is a student of History and Politics at Macquarie University with a particular interest in post-colonial societies and the provision of public health. Melanie is a member of the Revolutionary Socialist Party.
