Important stuff in exposing the treatment of any black who dared question anything.
Alex Haley's (Jan.'65) interview of King was published more than two years before King's famous speech (April 4 ,1967, exactly one year before he was murdered) breaking with Vietnam War. Including the line about sending young black boys thousands of miles away to fight for rights they didn't have at home in the US.
Malcolm had changed too before his death, and I think King had come to realize that he and Malcolm were simply working different aisles, both necessary for progress.
Haley became a rich and famous black celebrity. I didn't realize what a shit he was.
