The Cuban Revolution “overturned the system”

Malcolm X, right, talks to Fidel Castro at Hotel Theresa in Harlem, New York,
Sept. 19, 1960. Malcolm organized housing there for the Cuban U.N. delegation
when it was denied accommodation elsewhere.
The Cuban Revolution “overturned the system,” Malcolm explained in 1963.
