Abdul Aziz Omar (May 4, 1923 – February 15, 1994) [ [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0944323/] Philbert X - IMDb] , originally Philbert Little and later known as Philbert X, was a U.S. black Muslim clergyman. He founded a black Muslim temple in Detroit, Michigan. Most notably, he was one of the older brothers of Malcolm X, and a member of the Nation of Islam. [ [http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/malcolmx/sfeature/sf_video.html] Philbert Little - The American Experience]

At the Nation of Islam's 1965 Savior's Day convention, he said the following about his famous brother:

"'Malcolm was my own blood brother, next to me...I was shocked. No man wants to see his own brother destroyed. But I knew that he was traveling on a very reckless and dangerous road. I made attempts to change his course. When he was living, I tried to keep him living; now that he is dead, there is nothing I can do.' Indicating the seated Elijah Muhammad, Minister Philbert X declared, 'Where he leads me, I will follow'" [Haley, A., & Malcolm X. (1964). The Autobiography of Malcolm X As told to Alex Haley, p. 489.]
