Tony Emanuel King (born 6 May 1947) is an American actor, political activist, and retired football player. A player for the Buffalo Bills for only one season in 1967, King subsequently became an actor and appeared in numerous exploitation and B movies, including several produced in Italy. In the 1980s, he became a member of the Nation of Islam, abandoning his “slave name” and becoming Malik Farrakhan. He currently serves as the head of security for the hip-hop group Public Enemy. A documentary about King's life, The Long Road to the Hall of Fame, is currently being produced.
