Tony Brown’s Journal | I Didn’t Kill Malcolm X
This episode of Tony Brown’s Journal, titled I Didn’t Kill Malcolm X, features an in-depth interview with Norman 3X Butler (Muhammad A. Aziz), one of the two men convicted of the assassination who steadfastly maintained his innocence.
The program focuses heavily on the structural flaws of the original 1966 trial and provides Butler with a platform to detail his alibi, proving he was not at the Audubon Ballroom when the shooting occurred. Rather than treating the case as closed, the full broadcast systematically layers Butler’s personal testimony against Talmadge Hayer’s confessions. By highlighting how the state ignored Hayer’s statements vindicating Butler, the episode serves as a powerful investigative critique of the justice system and a historical prelude to Butler’s formal exoneration decades later.
