Knew what it was as soon as I clicked the link

Malcolm X is one of those movies I watch once in a blue moon because I get angry on how Spike Lee and Denzel got snubbed for an Oscar.

It's damn near criminal..

 

[PhonZhi]

We watch this in second grade, and after it finish, we 7-year-olds were numbed to our seats

Watched Malcolm X yesterday for the first time in probably 10 years. Forgot how well made and just a great piece of cinema it is. Denzel was amazing. Really strong performances all around but he and Angela Bassett really stood out. I forgot Mandela was in it as well. I just went to a Mandela tribute at the Raptors game on Friday too.

Really a reminder of how wicked this world can be.

Spike hit this scene right on the money. This gets me emotional every time I see it which means he did his job as a director and the actors did their jobs as well. Denzel definitely should have gotten the Oscar for this.

I think I watched this in 3rd or 4th grade.

The scene where everyone has left the room and angela bassett is hunched over his body, wailing, is what gets me.

wish spike had the balls to REALLY do this movie justice

never once got into the CIA involvement nor Farrakhan

Conspiracy theorist and lecturer, dikk Gregory, believes the CIA assassinated Malcolm. During a radio interview with We All Be, he says, “When we got the autopsy, all the bullets in Malcolm were going down, which means the CIA didn’t trust those negroes enough to give them real bullets.” dikk suggests that the CIA had someone shooting from the balcony of the ballroom while the three NOI members shot Malcolm with fake bullets.

There is also a conspiracy theory that members of the NOI were ordered by Elijah Muhammad to kill Malcolm. Two months before Malcolm’s death, Louis Farrakhan (the current leader of the NOI) wrote in an article in the NOI newspaper, The Final Call, that Malcolm was worthy of death. He wrote:

“The dye is set and Malcolm shall not escape. Especially after such evil foolish talk about his benefactor, Elijah Muhammad. In trying to rob him of the divine glory Allah has bestowed upon him, such a man as Malcolm is worthy of death.”

Elijah Muhammad, who died in February 25, 1975, continued to deny having anything to do with the murder of Malcolm X. During a 1993 Saviors Day lecture, Louis said the following about Malcolm’s death that raised even more suspicion about the NOI:

“…It ain’t none of your business! What do you have to say about it? Did you teach Malcolm? Did you make Malcolm? Did you clean up Malcolm? Did you put Malcolm out before the world? Was Malcolm your traitor or was he ours? If we dealt with him like a nation deals with a traitor, what the hell business is it of yours? Stay outta of it because in the future we are going to become a nation and the nation gotta be able to deal with traitors and turn coats. The white man deals with his, the Jews deal with theirs…It’s certain paths you don’t cross.”
