Question For African-Americans?

Why is that African Americans primarily Parade Martin Luther King Jr. but keep Malcolm X in the shadows or even a bare audible mention ?? i noticed that Malcolm X had close to zero recognition when President Obama was elected. Don't people understand that if American didn't give into Martin and his peace message they would have to deal with Malcolm X ??? Malcolm in my opinion was the sword behind America's back pushing them towards Civil Rights and Equality. And i was very disappointed to see him get 0.0 recognition during the Swearing In of President Obama.
