Ilyasah Shabazz, daughter of Malcolm X and Betty Shabazz, delivered the key note speech on Thursday, Jan. 19 in Packard 101 at the MLK Awards and Convocation reminding students, faculty and staff that societal and racial struggles persist.
Following a speech by the high school oratorical contest grand prize winner, Chloe Massas, Shabazz took over the platform from which she urged the audience to take a more aggressive role in shaping the progression of society.
“We must look in the mirror and understand that we are the leaders we seek,” she said. “We must do for ourselves.”
Shabazz, a writer, activist and speaker, explained her vision for society.
“My premise is very simple: I believe that every child should have the opportunity to feel good about him or herself.

Shabazz explained the impact her father’s role in the civil rights movement had on her life.
“Malcolm X accepted the mantle of leadership in the human rights struggle because he understood the oneness of humanity,” Shabazz said.
“I was raised to be proud of my African ancestry, proud to be Muslim and proud to be a woman,” she later said.
