A lawsuit filed last week by the family of Malcolm X, on the 58th anniversary of his assassination in Harlem’s Audubon Ballroom, might clear up the secrecy, lies and misinformation that still shroud the historical record.
Malcolm’s family and the entire nation need and deserve to know the truth, including how complicit the U.S. government and New York Police Department were in his death. Calls for the U.S. Justice Department to investigate have been ignored.
The $100 million wrongful death lawsuit against the NYPD, FBI, CIA and other government agencies seeks redress against not only the men who pulled the trigger, but also the government agencies that conspired to make it happen, or allowed it to.
