Difficult to work up a real sense of outrage at this man. More than anything else it's just...sad.

He lived with what he did his entire life. Too bad he's not still around to tell the real story.

As a Black man who has an understanding of history I'm not shocked,but angry. If this dude was alive I would gladly go to jail for killing him.Fuckers like this help keep our people in a fucked up place.

@harveysuperboy One of the photographers for Malcolm X's demise today is a college professor that works at a HBCU. He recounted that Ernest Withers and others like them were hounded not true informants and were targeted as a means to trace the where about of these so called great leaders. Assassinations in order JFK (1963), Malcom X(1965) and MLK (1967) it all kind of adds up to FBI coverup and informants.

@zjones1222 Thank you for the information.

Are you aware of Cointelpro, if not you need to read. Anybody that said they was a friend of any organization and hid the fact that they was working with the FBI, is a traitor. a snake. If you think black people don't feel the same way, ask them.

[akilmosq24]

What I am aware of is that the FBI infiltrated the Black groups not only to dismantle them but to murder, and kill innocent people even children, if the thought they where in any way a threat to national security. It's hard for me to believe that anyone would think that this man only took pictures.

[akilmosq24]

I wonder how his family feels about this traitor,  if he has any.

[lietz13]

@akilmosq24 He told the FBI about what they were up to.

I don't know if you're aware, but wherever a march took place, there was a good chance for a riot to break out and for people to be killed.

By reassuring the Federal Government that the movement was peaceful and for his work in photography, he absolutely helped civil rights progress.

[zjones1222]

@lietz13 You believe that the orchestrated assassination of MLK was necessary to control black crowds on permit with police protection. Although, peaceful protest and song was the control mechanism that made the movement popular but dogs, water and arrests happened as a result for speaking out against unfair treatment of human beings on a larger scale.

THE INFO HE RELAYED TO THE FBI GOT MLK KILLED
