Honored
Malcolm X, who was shadowed by the FBI in the early 1960s because of his activism, was honored by the federal government Wednesday with a 33-cent commemorative stamp. Malcolm X, a fiery orator who advocated black nationalism, was assassinated in a Harlem ballroom in 1965. The stamp, which is to go on sale today, is the 22nd in the “Black Heritage” series that includes a stamp honoring the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
