Huh? Did you forget that Malcolm.was KILLED by jealous NOI members? And that Khalid Muhammad was also once SHOT by a former NOI member?
Did you forget that the US organization, headed Hy Maualana Karenga (founder of kwaanza) got into a shootout with the Panthers and to this day is strongly suspected to have been an FBI agent? Did you forget that Huey Newton publicly threatened to beat Eldridge Ckeavers ass numerous times and did beat other people's ass beat on college campuses several times? And that Huey died in the streets as a common junkie? Now mind you, even with this known, Tariq and Umar are NOTHING like any of those guys, but stop it with the romantic memories. I don't think y'all forgot, someof y'all just don't know damn history, and remember what a want. We can go further and further back through history.
Hell, even on Tariqs , majorly flawed recollection of the Haitian revolution , he seems to have wanted to leave out that Dessaline was killed BY Haitians who were sick of him. His brother if I recall correctly. And he left out numerous other important figures on order to make a simplistic "coon" equation and some shit about being "on code".
Shaka Zulu. Killed by his brother. Patrice Lumumba. Killed by Mumbutu. Mugabe snaked several.of the other leaders in the Zimbabwe liberation movement so he could be the leader. Jomo Kenyatta did it too. He actually had Obamas father blackballed and had his mentor killed.
But again, at least these guys were actual LEADERS.
And it's happened all over European history too, so don't feel ashamed of those accounts. No one is susceptible to egomaniacal men. History all over the world is riddled with them. I'm just glad we can see the tendencies of these early. They're not leaders. At all.
