Answer:

King and Malcolm X have a similar objective, which is achieving racial equality for African Americans. In King's speech, he promoted non-violent and peaceful protests. While Malcolm wants African Americans to use violence to reach equality.

I believe they had the same objective- to obtain equal rights for blacks, but it's how they did it that was different. Martin Luther King Jr. was a strongly believed that peace was the way, whereas Malcolm X used violence.
