         From his travels in Africa and Asia in the early 1960s to his assassination in 1965, Malcolm X's struggle against American apartheid took on an increasingly international dimension. In the speech presented here, which was given at the University of Ghana in 1964, Malcolm is the child of Africa  who has returned, and his return brings a multiple message of solidarity in the cause of liberation, a warming for African nations to avoid slipping under the spell of American dollarism, and a request for support in his effort to bring the United States before the UN on the charges of human rights abuses. This edition of his speech concludes with a letter he wrote to home from Cairo, also in 1964, where he formally re-iterates his request to African statesmen.
