The SuperBowl Half-time show was a tribute to Black Power, however, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Black Panthers, who succeeded about as well as the Carolina Panthers. Beyonce’s fake cartridge belt may have contained a few actual cartridges, minus their primers. The large X that the 50 black women in paramilitary uniforms and black berets formed, of course, honored Malcolm X, the racist white-hater. Was the conventional US media silent on this? Then go read the British press!
Malcolm X later turned against the Nation of Islam and I believe at that time he preached nonviolence. For that he was killed. A murder which Mohammed Ali said was justified.
What a delight watching thug Cam Newton lose, and then act like the crybaby bitch he is.
The US media explained that is was a tribute to Michael Jackson. Yeah...sure....
Not at all. The TV "newscasters" followed the script that was handed to them and gushed about what a wonderful half time show it was.
It was the Nation of Islam that dragged Malcolm X out of a life of crime, moral penury and racial victimhood. It was then what he called "True Islam" that drew him away from the cultish Nation of Islam and its anti-white racism, through an eye-opening Hajj pilgrimage.
And having split acrimoniously from the Nation of Islam, it was people of his own faith who would order and carry out his assassination, in which he was shot repeatedly on 21 February, 1965, at a talk in a New York ballroom half a century ago.
Before he was murdered, Malcolm X recanted his past beliefs about the inherent nature of white people being racist and evil. He eschewed his hatred without losing his rage at the injustice suffered by blacks in America. But his Islamic faith only ever deepened.
