I know it might have been too early since Brother Malcolm was murdered in 1965, but we all know that wars are usually planned far in advance. I feel like both Malcolm and MLK would have joined together (or at least in opinion) that the Vietnam war was crooked. I think it was rather convienent to kill both with that jumping off What say you?

I can't remember where I read it, but Malcolm had began speaking out against the Vietnam war before his assassination. He was one of the first to do this. Like you said, the war was already being planned far in advance and Malcolm was already on it.

If Malcolm had made it to the Vietnam war, i think he would have successfully been able to convince many not to go.

Like you said, the war was already being planned far in advance and Malcolm was already on it. I'll have to look this up because I want to know even more! Just yesterday I realized what Malcolm was doing: he was being strategic. He was dropping little hints and slowly leading us towards that truth: just how deep the rabbit hole goes. White people who are not rich are slaves too. They're just the house negroes. I think Malcolm knew this and much more, and was preparing to get to the meat of the purpose of his work. I don't think he was just going to go to the UN to ask for reparations..he was about to blow the roof off of White governments the world over. They killed him just in time. Too bad he didn't write anything down, but I know he had very good reasons not to. If Malcolm had made it to the Vietnam war, i think he would have successfully been able to convince many not to go. Malcolm would have probably been able to damn near stop the war before it even started. And he would have said why he opposed it. He knew information that was a serious threat to "national security".
