Bassett of "Malcolm X” (6)
I believe the answer is:
angela
'bassett of malcolm x' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for angela that I've seen before include "woman" , "Girl's name" , "Frau Merkel" , "- Gheorghiu, Romanian soprano" , "------ Gheorghiu, diva" .)
