Ilyasah Shabazz

Ilyasah Shabazz (pronounced ILL-YAH-SAH SHA-BOZZ) leads a life dedicated to four passions: 1) the continued growth and understanding of her Family Legacy; 2) developing educational programs which foster self-empowerment regardless of life experience; 3) expanding the role of government to teach individual responsibility for improving society; and 4) capitalizing on the arts and entertainment to encourage the undertstanding of history, culture, and self-expression.

Following in the footsteps of her parents, Ms. Shabazz is working to convey a message of self-empowerment to future generations. She is presently implementing The WAKE-UP Tour, her exclusive program for empowering our Nation's youth. She is corporation president and Board Member of The Malcolm X & Dr. Betty Shabazz Memorial and Education Center, Inc. at The Audubon, the place of her father's martyrdom in 1965. Inspired by her father's Legacy to embrace a rich heritage and nurtured by her mother's unending perseverance and strength, Ms. Shabazz is indeed a compassionate humanitarian, author, and lecturer.

@411Tigress -A parent/grandparent loves their child and would protect them with their lives and Betty did. Who are WE to say he wasn't worth it? He was and is. Show Betty her respect by respecting whom she loved . I wish this young man peace and love through Christ. He has a part of Betty and Malcolm within him, that is his blood. This is Malcolm's first male descendant. Regardless of that tragic day, seeing him, I see the spirits of his grands, especially Malcolm and that is a blessing.

@rubyzandra --- that bastard killed his grandmother Betty Shabazz. He started a fire in the house and ran out, she woke up and instead of leaving she was looking for that bastard, she was killed. Why don't you take his ass???? His blood is bad...
