Maleolm K. Little
In rerard to the current civil rights move-~
ment, Little predicted that the struggle would "explode"
in 1964 and expressed the opinion that young Negroes
are now willing to do anything for integration. He
feels that if they are not protected in this activity
then they mst defend themselves from racial supremacists
even if they must take up arms. He specifically pointed
out that he was not urging or teaching retaliation, only
self-protection. As an example he cited the unsolved
bombing of a Negro church in Birmingham that resulted
in the death of four girls, and it was his opinion
that Negroes (not specified), should solve this and
other such wrongs and execute those responsible.
Little stated that he was only interested
in "freedom, justice and equality” for Negroes. He
added that they have not gotten it by being polite, and
he feels that they should now get angry.
In regard to his suspension by Muhammad
in December, 1963, for his remark concerning the
assassination of former President Kennedy, Little
advised that the suspension was not for the remark
itself. He explained that the suspension was for his
disobedience to Muhammad for making the remark,
since Muhammad had told him not to corment on the
assassination. He further stated that the suspension
was originally for a 90 day period, but he recently
learned from Muhammad that it would be for an
indefinite period. Consequently, he decided to stay
out of the NOI and speak out on his own.
