Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Malcolm X was a major proponent of black nationalism and his speeches and activism played a significant role in the resurgence of the movement in the 1960s. Other important figures in the black nationalist movement included Stokely Carmichael and the Black Panther Party. Marcus Garvey, Thurgood Marshall, and Martin Luther King Jr. all played important roles in the civil rights movement, but did not necessarily espouse black nationalism as a central ideology.
