Controversial Figures in Education Curriculum
The person who sent this to you wants you to
know who is really deciding what your children learn in school.
Why were we, along with children today,
taught about Martin Luther King but not Malcolm X?
The whole world must see that Israel must exist and
has a right to exist and is one of the great outposts of democracy in the world.
Now let us compare that to Malcolm X.
Palestinian struggle is not just a cry for justice.
It's a blistering battle for the most fundamental human rights that every living
soul on this planet should inherit by birthright.
It's an unyielding resistance against the oppressive,
suffocating grip of occupation and the callous denial of
the most basic human dignity.
But what did Martin Luther King have to say about anti Semitism?
My Jewish brothers and sisters said to me, amid anti Semitism anywhere,
we don't need your support.
We have enough Jewish power to deal with this problem ourselves.
But what did Malcolm X have to say about it? Are you anti Semitic?
Anti Semitic. You've, many of the things that I've read about you,
and you've made a mention a couple of times about the
Jews and everything, and I'm wondering if you are personally anti Semitic. No.
How can I be anti Semitic when the Arabs are semi, half the Muslim
world is Semitic. If I was anti Semitic, I'd be anti Arab and anti everything else.
No, I think this, that in this country, there is one mistake that the Jews make.
They put themselves in a position
where whenever anybody gives an objective analysis of the role that they play,
they defend themselves by accusing you of being anti Semitic.
The contrast between the two is clear.
And while Martin Luther King's speechwriter was Jewish,
even having written his famous speech, I Have a Dream,
Malcolm X was more sympathetic to the Palestinian state.
But how did it happen that only one of them was taught in schools while the
other was hardly mentioned?
Why does one get a national holiday and endless praise and the
other gets memory halt?
This is where Robert Maxwell comes in.
Robert Maxwell is Gives Lane Maxwell's father,
and they documented Musada agent.
Robert Maxwell bought the major publishing company Macmillan and
used it to control the contents of the textbooks distributed to American
schoolchildren across the entire country.
They are quite literally controlling our future by rewriting our past.
