Malcolm X was assassinated in the Audubon Ballroom in Washington Heights 58 years ago today.
Every year The Shabazz Center, a living memorial that occupies the historic location at 3940 Broadway, holds a special commemoration.
Tonight's event, "Living The Legacy: The 58th Commemoration Of El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz – Malcolm X," includes musical and spoken word performances as well as remarks by Dr. Ilyasah Shabazz followed by a keynote speech by Dr. Angela Davis.
While the in-person event is sold out, you can watch the whole thing online on Facebook or YouTube starting at 7pm.
These days the Center itself is by appointment only, but TCU has more photos taken pre-pandemic here.
