So does Malcom X having homosexual relations change your view on him?

[guppetto]

Notice how media types keep trying to suggest prominent black men were gay. Man take that crap and put it in the garbage. It's this push to tie the struggle of African Americans and Civil Rights to the plight of Gay individuals in America. Unfortunately, Being Gay has nothing to do with being taken from your homeland and beaten and killed through 400 years of indentured servitude. This is what Malcolm meant when he said "Plymouth Rock landed on us". Not buying it, don't believe it, never accepting it and honestly am somewhat offended. Go out half of the Conservative Gay Congressmen that just happen to be Caucasian if you want a real story.

I mean it's not the first time its been alleged, and this author who died recently was a highly respected Columbia historian, who spent 20+ years working on the book.

But I'm sure this was just made up by the "white man" to make the black man effeminate

This isn't really an allegation, this is a historic book being published that is easily the most in-depth and well researched book about the dude that has come out.  This is just one relevation among many things such as much of his criminal life he talked about was embellished.  Maybe the question is for those who look up to the man but disagree with homosexuality, would this make you change your views on it?

@ these responses this is the man who wrote the book.  The black communities "homophobia."

But I'm sure he was just trying to "discredit" Malcom

.  Why would Malcom having sex with a man discredit anything he did.  He also talks about who killed Malcom and brings new info to light.  Just started reading it but I'd suggest everybody try picking it up.

Anyone know about the missing chapters from the Autobiography of Malcolm X? My teacher talked about it in my American History course I took a semester ago.

At this point that's all they are. Either way, it wouldn't change my view of him. I don't understand why it's even important enough to research.

I don't care if he's purple, It's no coincidence that these stories keep getting dropped in the media to slowly but surely try to massage people attitudes about Gay Rights and Civil Rights. The two aren't related. Oppressing and mistreating people is closely related to gay rights, but there are thousands of years of history on civilizations that have fought that struggle.
