do some research on malcolm's last days

That's not very helpful, yo. Malcolm X left the NOI because the NOI bent the knee, and effectively optics cucked. They censored him for trying to initiate violent retaliation against the LAPD in 1962, and for what he said about JFK. Additionally, Elijah Muhammad had affairs with NOI secretaries, and Malcolm X was right to point out Elijah Muhammad was a grifter. Most importantly, Malcolm X was popular, and could have usurped Elijah Muhammad. This seems like a good reason to have him killed, rather than what you're saying. It's not like his assassination was out of the blue, the feds were aware it was coming, and probably orchestrated it.

Also, collaborating with other races isn't an issue, which Malcolm X did even when he was in the NOI. However, collaborating with the neoliberal establishment is, which Elijah Muhammad did and Louis Farrakhan continues to do. So, what am I missing?
