MALLM X - GAY BLACK HERO?
On Mallm X's 80 birthday, <b>Peter Tatchell</b> reveals the hidn gay past of the Amerin black natnalist lear. * malcom x was gay *
That's a b more credible, but I thk given the fact that masculy is often nstcted opposn to homosexualy, and given that many Mallm's own alyt have nstcted that way, the matter is que relevant. To the evince: The notn that Mallm X was a closeted gay man was first aired by Bce Perry who, his book Mallm, claimed that his subject had several gay enunters, many of them for money. He don't offer any other stanc of sex wh men, but impli that there may have been when he wr that Mallm was "not an active homosexual after 1952.
And I thk people who are movg to the much broar pot--that Mallm X was gay--are really stretchg. Some black activists are enraged by suggtns that their hero might have been gay - or at least bisexual. Sexual eedom was not, however, part of his Perry's book documents Mallm X's many gay experienc.
While livg Flt, Michigan, his roommate noticed that stead of sleepg the room they were sharg, Mallm sneaked down the hall to spend the night wh a gay transvte named Willie New York, two of Mallm's iends om Michigan remember bumpg to him at the YMCA, where Mallm bragged he earned money servicg "queers".

Perry suggts that Mallm's gay enunters may not have been entirely fancially motivated. His mascule securi and ambivalence towards women f the archetype of a reprsed gay man and pot to latent the ath of his father, when Mallm was six, he lacked male role mols and was domated by strong women - particular, his tyrannil mother.

There is, however, plentiful rearch suggtg that many guys who have sex wh men for payment are nial about their homosexualy. If people have a homosexual pacy, stays wh them for life - even if they never act on . There is no evince that his same-sex dallianc ntued once he joed the NoI; he married and had children, and, wh all the fervour of a zealo nvert, he embraced the NoI's fiercely puranil Mlim sexual he not been assassated 1965, almost certaly at the hands of NoI rivals, Mallm might have eventually, like Huey Newton of the Black Panthers, weled the gay liberatn movement as part of the stggle for human emancipatn.
Instead, to serve s homophobic polil agenda, for 50 years the NoI has supprsed knowledge of Mallm's gay is time to blow the whistle. There is not a sgle world-famo black person who is openly gay. Young black lbians and gays need role mols.

Havg an ternatnally renowned gay or bisexual black in would do much to help challenge homophobia, pecially the black muni and particularly Ai and the Caribbean where homosexualy and bisexualy are often dismissed as a "whe man's disease" what is the evince for Mallm X's bisexual orientatn?
Abstag om gay sex after his marriage do not change the fundamentals of his sexual orientatn and do not mean that he was wholly straight. His md was beg open to new ias and he not been murred 1965, Mallm might have eventually, like Huey Newton of the Black Panthers and the black power lear Angela Davis, embraced the lbian and gay liberatn movement as part of the stggle for human emancipatn.
Instead, to serve their homophobic polil agenda, for over half a century the Natn of Islam and many black natnalists have supprsed knowledge of Mallm's same-sex relatns. In his reference to homophobic unrton, Coat may particularly have had md Baraka, who never repudiated his anti-homosexual wrgs as LeRoi Jon.
