    Malcolm X's 6 Children: All About His Daughters Who Are Continuing His Legacy

    It's been decades since Malcolm X was assassinated, but his legacy has lived on through his six daughters: Attallah, Qubilah, Ilyasah, Gamilah Lumumba, Malikah and Malaak.

    According to Russell J. Rickford's 2003 book Betty Shabazz: Surviving Malcolm X, the civil rights activist met Betty Sanders in 1956 when she joined the temple where he served as chief minister. Two years later, Malcolm called her from a gas station to propose, and they were married on Jan. 14, 1958. The couple later adopted the last name Shabazz.

    Betty and Malcolm welcomed their first child, Attallah, in 1958. Qubilah was born in 1960, and Ilyasah arrived in 1962. Gamilah, born in 1964, was only an infant when she witnessed her father's assassination on Feb. 21, 1965. At the time of Malcolm's murder, Betty was pregnant with twins Malikah and Malaak, born in September of that year.
