The Day Malcolm X Died He Planned To Speak On "Why The Soul Of America May Go To Hell"


Malcolm and Martin's discussion on the fate of America's soul.

Like some demonic, destructive suction tube: Martin Luther King Jr ...

Alan: America's "Thing Orientation" is excerpted from King's 1967 speech, "Beyond Vietnam." If, as some believe, King's killing was a conspiracy, it is plausible, if not likely,  that Martin's fresh view of America's essential perdition and consequent need for spiritual transformation (as revealed by the Vietnam War) was "the straw that broke the camel's back."

King re-formulated "Beyond Vietnam" as his Riverside Church sermon, April 30, 1967.
