Underground Knowledge — A discussion group discussion

A member of the group messaged me to ask if I know the real reasons why Malcolm X was murdered.

I know nothing much about any theories as to why Malcolm X was killed. Never even saw the movie. Does anyone know any theories and have any opinions on the matter? Were the powers-that-be afraid of Islam becoming a popular religion?

I know nothing either but I have a book on my to read list that explores the subject. I always thought it to be a hate crime to do with racism. I believe he was arguing for the rights of all Americans to be treated the same including black Americans.

I am only guessing because it is merely an impression I had -nothing to do with what may really be the story.

Official story is he was assassinated by Nation of Islam for breaking with the group. I've never heard anything different.

I get that vibe too, but haven't researched Malcolm X much.
