I don’t think any black person is surprised to hear this.
Plenty of other races are not surprised either. Many of them White.. They keep us divided so we don't fight "them".

Not at all ,We have been knowing this‼️ This is what they do‼️ Exactly why we as a people need to come together‼️💪🏽👊🏾❤️‼️
I learned they did MLK, too, so it doesn't surprise me either that they more than likely did Malcom X, too, and blamed other "patsy's" for their cover-up. Back in that day, there wasn't computers to leak/find the truth out like today. The way the UNITED STATES CORPORATION is run to today, to the corruption of govt., this doesn't shock me either....
I'm white and I wasn't surprised
This is nowhere CLOSE to being a surprise. Glad it was released.
OFFICIAL STORY: Malcom gets killed by his own people. Sounds a lot like the Borne Identity and the attempted boat assassination of Wombosi doesn't it?
I was thinking the same thing 😡
@@RIV365 exactly
@@skimasker3049 he was killed by his own people thats fact.
Exactly. I’m like, “and water is wet.”
They killed King and both Kennedy’s too
Big Facts. Kennedy was because he wasn't going to conform and he believe that blacks deserved rights and to be equal , also he called out secret society being the scenes and said they undermined the American dream and the are the enemy. no one heard him tho
To keep the war machine money rolling
and countless more, don't forget 2pac
They killed 3 Kennedys. And maybe even framed Ted Kennedy for that girl's drowning. The "they" goes way beyond white people, police, or feds, though. The "they" is the Jesuits. Francis calls the shots. He is the Jesuit Pope. The feds just take the shots. Then the cops make the arrests. Then the media gets you all to believe that there is a giant conspiracy of white racism against blacks on a national level. The RACISM is INSTITUTIONAL, but it is not SYSTEMIC. The ELITES put this RACISM in place. Look up Charles Darwin's family. Look up Margaret Sanger (founder of Planned Parenthood) The ELITES want to wipe out the blacks, and keep just enough to serve them. They want to wipe out the middle class, period. So that includes Asian, Black, Hispanic, and White people. "One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind." Romans 14:5 "But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgement seat of Christ." Romans 14:10

Completely right!! They didn't even care if you where a public figure if you where a college kid speaking out especially if you were black....you where shot like a God dam dog.......and still we let them walk on us ........why is equality so hard for people to understand.

That's because they invested too much in us being divided. Plus you can't appear taller if you're not stepping on somebody.

The idiots that say black folks are delusional are either part of the elites that want to stay in power or people that are just ignorant and brainwashed. They don't want to acknowledge the fact that we are in no way superior.

No mention of Nation of Islam Mosque #25 involvement in Malcolm's death. You're being lied to.
@@CribNotes and curiously, no mention that the Squirrel Mafia did it either...seems like I'm not the only one being lied to 🤔
@@uttcftptid4481 The Nation fire bombed Malcolm's house while his kids were sleeping. Squirrels can't throw Molotov Cocktails that high.
@@CribNotes but also, isn't it at all possible that the FBI had the ability to commit acts and frame others for them? Especially the J Edgar Hoover FBI? I'm not saying you're wrong, or that it was definitely the FBI that did that. What I am saying is that neither of us were there, we can't possibly know what actually happened....but deathbed confessions, those tend to carry a lot of weight in my eyes. Because when people are involved in shady and horrible acts, they sometimes get very honest on their deathbed if they think that getting the truth off their chest will buy them any goodwill with Anubis (or whatever "God" they believe might be judging them and deciding their fate in whatever afterlife they believe in). But to pretend that you know exactly what happened, that you have special knowledge that you're privy to and that all of us naive dumdums are "being lied to," well that's kind of foolish if you ask me. I'm open to anything that the evidence supports. So if you can point me to any videos of Louis Farakhan claiming responsibility for firebombing his house, I'm all eyes and ears. To be honest I've never dug into this very deeply myself so it could very well be that you do have this evidence and that I have no idea what I'm talking about. If that's the case, bring out the evidence or point me to where I can find it, and I will happily come back and apologize.
