| Malcolm X |
I've been seeing a number of stories about people getting out from under the yoke of the Democratic war machine lately, and I can't tell if there really is an upsurge, or it's just normal, but those kind of stories were overshadowed by the runup to the election. In any case, I like this story from RT. It has a couple of points:
- Malcolm's family is going after the FBI & CIA for their role in the assassination, and
- It's got a brief history of Malcolm and his extremist views. I'd kind of forgotten about that part so it's good to be reminded.
Three of Malcolm X’s daughters have filed a lawsuit against the CIA, FBI, and New York Police Department, accusing the agencies of complicity in the assassination of the militant black activist.
Filed in a Manhattan court on Friday, the suit alleges that the CIA, FBI, and NYPD were aware of a plot to kill Malcolm X, but did not act to stop it. It claims that the NYPD arrested his security detail days before the assassination, while the CIA and FBI’s undercover agents – who were present on the night of the fatal shooting – stood by while the militant leader was gunned down.
The lawsuit alleges that there was a “corrupt, unlawful, and unconstitutional” relationship between the agencies and “ruthless killers that went unchecked for many years and was actively concealed, condoned, protected, and facilitated by government agents.”
Malcolm was killed in 1965.

Whatever else you thought of him, he wanted black people to STAND on their own. Since the goal of the democrats was to re-enslave them all with the Great Society, etc. he had to go. Same with MLK though his rhetoric was more palatable, his goals were very similar. Same result there.
