One of these celebrations will be held in New York at the site of the Audobon Ballroom where he was assassinated. A part of it is now the [Malcolm X]-Dr. Betty Shabazz Memorial and Education Center. One of the highlights of that celebration, which will be hosted by two of Brother Malcolm's daughters, Ilyasah and Malaak Shabazz, will be the showing of a 30-minute DVD on a reunion last summer of 18 founding/charter members of the Organization of Afro-American Unity which was founded by Brother Malcolm after his split from The Nation of Islam.

LONDON - The genre that brought us "The Matrix" has roots reaching back nearly two millenia. The literary tradition often associated with "Star Trek"-loving fanboys has a militant feminist streak. Oh, and it also invented cyberspace.
The British Library's new exhibit, "Out of this World," wants visitors to know that there's more to sci-fi than "The War of the Worlds" or "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
