We know who Malcolm X was. So who was...?

And who was Malcolm I ?

And Malcolm II ?

And Malcolm V ?

or even the VIII, IX

and will there be a XI ?

Update:

Perhaps you didn't understand that my preface statement was one of truth:

"We KNOW who he was."

    Are you serious? Malcolm Little renamed himself Malcolm X after becoming a Muslim. He did it in an effort to make a statement that black people in America were stripped of their cultural identity and given names that weren't really theirs. He renounced his "given name" and took the X instead. He is not Malcolm the 10th.

    The X signified his true African family name that he would never know because he wanted to replace the name (Little) his slave master gave him. It has nothing to do with Roman numerals.

    Source(s): I've read his autobiography

    Jessica W has it right.

    You on the other hand, Craig, are so wrong. Read a book.
