Officially, Malcolm X was assassinated following a falling out with the Nation of Islam. Malcolm X had received intimidating messages from the Nation of Islam prior to his death, and Nation of Islam members Talmadge Hayer, Norman 3X Butler, and Thomas 15X Johnson were convicted for the killing. However, Malcolm X's death is still controversial, and Hayer insists that Butler and Johnson were innocent of the crime.

Malcolm X was murdered because people did not like the way he thought and they wanted him to stop the change he was bringing, if any at all.
