Malcolm X’s former bodyguard was also a government informant: Here him explain
This video features a 1992 CBS news special featuring Dan Rather interviewing those who’ve interacted with the late, great Malcolm. X. In the video, Dan speaks with Gene Roberts, who was an undercover police officer, ordered by his superiors to try to get as close to Malcolm as he possibly could.
Roberts got very close to Malcolm, actually becoming his bodyguard by taking advantage of his trust. In the video below, you can hear Robert’s explain why he and other government officials were worried that Malcolm might incite violence, and why they were working so hard to track his every movement. The most interesting part of the discussion stars at the 13:45 mark in the video, but the rest of it is fascinating as well.
