        The evidence seems to point in that direction. Just like it points in the direction of Jessie Jackson being an informer as well, MLK used to openly accuse him of being one as well.

          Mental control is a powerful tool, when you're subject to it, you can't tell the truth from the lies and the lies from the truth.

          I hope you're doing this to inform and not to condemn Muhammad Ali though. Before Mecca, Malcolm was surrounded by the same thick haze Ali was in. And Ali eventually came to the same realization Malcolm did, even stating that his greatest regret in life is turning his back on Malcolm.

          Good looking out on the piece though.

                Ali wasn't under mental control, he most probably feared for his own life, which is why he turned his back on Malcolm

                Malcolm always wanted to get involved in the bigger struggle. He wanted to get involved in world politics and the civil rights movement, it was one of the many reasons why him and Elijah fell out. Ali on the flip side was always seemed content to tow the company line.

                    I'm going to be doing a piece about him and Elijah soon. And how it affected Ali's decision to refuse the draft

                      I don't think Haley was a Fed. Just my opinion, its too far fetched and the Bureau had plenty on him anyway.

                      Why give Malcolm publicity if you want to keep him down?

                      Also, he made Kunta Kinte a muslim and was a decent writer of his time, desite being a little straight laced.

                      Just cos a black writer isn't an Iceberg slim doesn't make hima fed. Probably more likely Slim was a fed.
