Attallah Shabazz Biography

Attallah Shabazz is one of the most popular and richest Actor who was born on November 16, 1958 in Queens, . Shabazz was born in Queens, New York, on November 16, 1958. According to many sources, she was named after Attila, the fifth-century ruler of the Huns, one of the most feared enemies of the Roman Empire; her father and Alex Haley, her godfather, wrote that in The Autobiography of Malcolm X. Shabazz has said she was not named after Attila; rather, her name is Arabic for “the gift of God”.

Shabazz had an apolitical upbringing in a racially integrated neighborhood in Mount Vernon, New York. Her family never took part in demonstrations or attended rallies. She received religious education at the Islamic Center at Riverside Drive and 72nd Street in Manhattan. With her sisters, she joined Jack and Jill, a social club for the children of well-off African Americans. As a teenager, she attended the United Nations International School. Although officials at the school prepared for “an onslaught of militancy” when 13-year-old Shabazz enrolled, “instead I walked in wearing my lime-green dress, my opaque stockings, my patent leather shoes, and carrying my little patent leather pocketbook,” she recalled in a 1982 interview. After graduating, she studied international law at Briarcliff College, but the school shut down before she graduated.

Shabazz told People in 1983 that she sometimes had flashbacks. “I would bump into people from the Nation of Islam, and I thought they were going to do the same thing to me.”

In December 1990, shortly after celebrating the tenth anniversary of Stepping into Tomorrow, King and Shabazz found themselves at the center of a controversy concerning a long-scheduled performance of the play in Arizona. In November, voters in that state had defeated two competing ballot measures that would have established a paid holiday for state employees on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. (The day was an unpaid holiday.) Civil rights groups called for a boycott of the state as a result of the vote. Days after the two women announced they would proceed with their performance, King cancelled her appearance, saying an understudy would take her place. Shabazz performed as scheduled.

In 1979, Moneta Sleet Jr. of Ebony brought Shabazz together with Yolanda King, daughter of Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King, for a photo shoot. Before the meeting, both women were worried that the bad feelings between their fathers might spoil the encounter. Instead, they found that they liked one another and had many things in common besides being in their early 20s: they both lived in New York City, they were aspiring actresses, their birthdays were one day apart, and they shared an optimism and interest in activism that one might expect from the eldest children of civil rights martyrs.

Attallah Shabazz (born November 16, 1958) is the eldest daughter of Malcolm X and Betty Shabazz. She is an actress, author, ambassador, and motivational speaker.

In February 1965, her sister Qubilah woke the family in the middle of the night with her screams; the house was on fire. Shabazz recalled that night in a 1989 interview: “I almost didn’t realize how dangerous it was—my father was that calm, that together a parent. My eyes were burning, I was coughing, but before you knew it, he had us all out of there, and we were safe at a friend’s house. My mother’s like that too. Together.”

Stepping into Tomorrow quickly grew into a collaboration called Nucleus, an eight-member theatre troupe based in New York and Los Angeles that performed in about 50 cities a year. Ebony included Shabazz and King among its “Fifty Young Leaders of the Future” in 1983. In the mid-1980s, Shabazz and King co-wrote another play, Of One Mind, about their fathers and what course history might have taken had they not been killed. Their collaboration lasted about twelve years.

At her mother’s funeral service in June 1997, Shabazz eulogized her on behalf of the family. Standing in the small pulpit of New York’s Riverside Church with her five sisters, she recalled the loving relationship her parents had shared and imagined her father stretching his arm to her mother, inviting her to join him. Then Shabazz asked everybody in attendance to “look to the person to the left and to the right of you and genuinely say, ‘I wish you the best.'”

In May 2000, Mike Wallace brought together Shabazz and Louis Farrakhan for a joint interview on 60 Minutes. Farrakhan, then known as Louis X, had been a protégé of her father’s in the Nation of Islam. After Malcolm X left the Nation, Louis X turned on his mentor and became one of his sharpest critics, writing in Muhammad Speaks (the Nation’s organ) that “such a man as Malcolm is worthy of death.” The Shabazz family are among those who have accused Louis Farrakhan of involvement in Malcolm X’s assassination. During the interview, Farrakhan said he “truly loved” Malcolm X. He said: “I may have been complicit in words that I spoke leading up to” the assassination; “I acknowledge that and regret that any word that I have said caused the loss of life of a human being.” Farrakhan also said that the U.S. government was involved in the assassination; “This is bigger than the Nation of Islam.” Shabazz replied: “You can’t keep pointing fingers. My father was not killed from a grassy knoll.” After the interview, she issued a statement thanking Farrakhan for “acknowledging his culpability” and wishing him peace.
