This country is totally against the improvement of african americans. As long as we sit around quietly, we are allowed to be safe. If we speak up against the wrong doings we have endured for centuries, we are a risk to the greater good. We never asked to be here. Everytime a black man speaks out and gets others to follow his cause, he gets wiped out. Malcolm, Martin, even Tupac. As long as "niggers" keep quiet, or follow the "rules", we are safe. Otherwise, we are the true definition of an endangered species.

I just watch the Malcom X movie. I am so glad that Malcom changed his view about white people. I am an african american myself and I am very disturbed about some of the things that has happen to poeple of my color. But to believe that all white are devils is insane. God loves all people. white black green and blue. I am glad that Malcom realized this before his death. I thank God for grace and mercy which he has given Malcom and myself. I just hope that one day we can can truly get away for this race battle that is still being fault amoung people of my color. I pray that all wake up and realize that when you have God on your side he will protect you from all evil. Whether it comes from white or black people.

Malcolm X was a radical until he made his pilgramage to Mecca. While he was there he saw blonde-haired, blued-eyed Muslims who were not racist and did not judge people by the color of their skin. This was different from the ones that he saw in the United States. From being around other Muslims in Mecca he saw a different side to Caucasians and thus became less radical.

While he was a member of the Nation of Islam he was a very influential figure, in fact, more so than Elijah Muhammad. He got a lot of press that when he returned from Mecca, people were still listnening to him, even when his views had become less radical.

J Edgar Hoover still would not have been satisfied that a third African-American movement was starting. And there was no doubt that the FBI knew about the plot to assassinate him, and the let it happen.

The NOI could've been involved in killing him but the governement (CIA and FBI) definitely don't have their hands clean with regards to the plot.

El Hajj Malik El Shabazz (Malcolm X) was assassinated on directive of the FBI working in collusion with the NOI. He was a natural born leader, very influential and eloquent in speech and demeanor. The Government did not want him starting up his new organization and attracting not only the radicals but also everyday folks would start listening to this reformed (after pilgrimage to Mecca) man. Malcolm presented a threat to the NOI because individuals would flock to Malcolm and the NOI would eventually had been exposed. The Government does not want any one man being powerful enough to rally people behind a cause and change the course of a nation, they'd rather they be dead. We need more leaders like W.E.B. Dubois, B.T. Washington, Medgar Evers, Elmer Pratt, King, Malcolm, and so on. People who will fight for the weak, defenseless, poor, and meek, and not so much as blink in the direction of a bribe. People who not succumb too politics and government. People who will not pretend to have a peoples best interest at heart while the whole time being controlled by the powers that be. I drifted from the topic, that's because we still have a long journey ahead of us.

There was a collective effort between the Nation of Islam and our government to assassinate Malcolm X. Brother Malcolm had upset many within the Nation of Islam with his public comments about the assassination of President Kennedy (calling it chickens comming home to roost) and his investigation into the sexual infidelities of The Honorable Elija Muhammed. After his suspension, Malcolm realized that Elija was not a true prophet and that the nation was morally bankrupt under his leadership. Our government, especially the FBI, was well aware of the rift that existed between Malcolm and the Nation of Islam but they refused to intervene because with Malcolm out of the picture, the nonviolent and the violent movements would not be able to come together and form a much more formidable opponent against the government with regard to human/equal rights for African-Americans.

Somewhat agree with sara on this one. But the "nation of Islam" is a group created by the government to make muslims look bad, similar to the Taliban and Al Qaeda.

Malcolm X's murder was carried out by members of the Nation of Islam but the assassination was planned and put into effect by the government.
