The Windrush years Part 11

- Supported by Radical Blacks and Liberal Whites
- John Lennon and Yoko Ono supported Michael X and RAAS and cut off their hair to show that support
- Not every Black person agreed with his views for example if you see a black man with a white woman shoot him
- The media portrayed Michael X to be a leader of the ‘Black Power’ but he wasn’t actually as he had no followers
- Michael X was not fighting for the Black people, he was finally arrested in Trinidad for murdering two of his followers
- He was found guilty and hanged
- He was a reckless and careless person no one really knew what he believed
- 1964 Race became a major factor in a British General Election for the first time
