Did Malcolm X have Gay Sexual Encounters? New Book says so


The new autobiography on Malcolm X highlights some of his gay sex moments. In the this new book, Dr. Marable points out a few of these encounters:
Written by respected academic Dr. Manning Marable over a 12 year-period, Malcolm X: A Life in Reinvention tells the story of a man who reinvented himself from the hoodlum Malcolm Little into a prominent voice for black Americans. 

Supported with evidence from an earlier autobiography, rumours of flirtations with gay sex confirm that Malcolm Little, as he was then, became involved with an older man and a hustler. As documented in the book, the hustler named Rudy was “paid to undress them both, then pick up the old man like a baby, lay him on his bed, then stand over him and sprinkle him all over with talcum powder. Rudy said the old man would actually reach his climax from that.”

As reported by the Guardian, Marable states this passage is based on “circumstantial but strong evidence” and that “Malcolm was probably describing his own homosexual encounters.”

Marable dedicated much of his life to researching Malcolm X until his death, just three days before the book was published.
I'm getting this book! I find this story very interesting.
