Plots(1)
The lives of two of the leading voices of the civil rights Movement, Martin Luther King and Malcolm X, are explored in this latest series of Genius. From showrunners Damione Macedon and Raphael Jackson, Jr., Genius: MLK/X is an exploration of both men’s lives, from their tumultuous childhoods to their untimely assassinations. These uniquely brilliant and complex men lived very different lives, but both had similar goals. While many felt they had to choose between Malcolm and Martin, the reality is they are two sides the same coin – champions of a freedom that had been denied. Despite their differences, they were two men of staggering genius who fueled each other in their differing pursuit of the same goal – our humanity in America. (National Geographic)
