Asalaamu`alaykum,
Join The Taha Collective and Harvard Islamic Society this February 21st
on the anniversary of the fateful day of the assassination of Malcolm X,
to appreciate and honor Malcolm's legacy, understand why he is relevant
to us today, and to understand the unexplored details behind his
assassination.
Our special guest speaker is Shareef Nasir, a documentary filmmaker
currently finishing up a film called "Behind the Trigger: The Killing of
Malcolm X". Through exclusive first-hand accounts, he explores the
events that led up to the death of Malcolm X, the aftermath and the
social context of Malcolm's life.
He has also produced "The Evolution of the Nation of Islam." A film that
chronicles the history of Elijah Muhammad's Nation of Islam and the
remarkable account of a people's journey from a separatist movement to
universal humanity.
Shareef is a graduate of San Francisco State University and the
University of California Los Angeles. He resides in California.
