MLK vs. Malcom X

MLK seems to have had a different way of making change by using the strategy of civil disobedience, which was something that Malcolm X definitely did not practice. he was a man to say, 'whatever it takes.' and he did. he provoked many people by doing what they could to get their point across. MLK used love to get through to people. because you cant fight love when its thrown around you like a boa constrictor. like every adorable puppy is licking your face. maybe too much, but u get the gist of it. malcolm X portrayed more of an 'aggressive' tactic. he used violence, when necessary, in order to get the point across to the nation simply saying "I'm not puttin up with this bull s*** anymore!" but when Malcolm came back on a trip, he changed his idea of how he will make a statement to this world, and that was following the way MLK decided to go about the civilized disobedience or fighting with love. both had different ideas but ended up finding out which was the right one.
