Malcolm X- originally Malcolm little when he was born in 1925-changed his name in 1952 after he moved to Chicago. The reason driving his change of Islam. African American followers of Mohammed knew that their family names were not their true last names, but a name that had been given to their ancestors when they were shipped as slaves to America - the custom at that times was for white slave owners to give their own last name to their slaves as a sign of owernship. Therefore, Islmist African Americans changed their last names to 'X' as a sign that the repudiated the action of the former slave owners, and as a mark for 'unknown' since their real family name was not recorded.

Malcolm X was born Malcolm Little on May 19, 1925, in Omaha, Nebraska. Malcolm was the fourth of eight children born to Louise, a homemaker, and Earl Little, a preacher who was also an active member of the local chapter of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and avid supporter of black nationalist leader Marcus Garvey. Due to Earl Little's civil rights activism, the family faced frequent harassment from white supremacist groups such as the Ku Klux Klan and one of its splinter factions, the Black Legion. In fact, Malcolm X had his first encounter with racism before he was even born.
