A familiar name has re-surfaced in connection with the 1965 assassination of civil rights leader, Malcolm X, re-igniting a 51 year-old dispute that one of Malcolm X’s killers — the man who fired the first, fatal shot, is alive, free and remains unpunished.
According to the Star-Ledger, in his latest and last publication, Malcolm X: A Life of Reinvention, noted historian and author, Manning Marable claims the man responsible for firing the fatal shotgun blasts that killed the revered activist is William Bradley, now known as, Al-Mustafa Shabazz, of Newark.
