Malcolm X also attempts to encourage the African American community to revolt against destructive inequality, but he advocates using force and violence when necessary.

I need help with comma splice
alexgriva [62]
A comma splice or comma fault is the use of a comma to join two independent clauses.
For example: It is nearly half past five, we cannot reach town before dark.
The comma splice is sometimes used in literary writing to convey a particular mood of informality.
Another example: The sun is high, put on some sunblock.
