Erasing the Past... NPIC official historyLooking Back at Malcolm X’s Message to the Grassroots Speech Sixty Years On | Nov. 10, 1963 (click here for video)
"Black Muslim activist Malcolm X delivered what would become a widely re-quoted speech, "Message to the Grass Roots"
to the Northern Negro Leadership Conference at the King Solomon Baptist Church in Detroit. Almost all of his listeners
were black Christians, and Malcolm X's message was one of revolution rather than accommodation. "You don’t catch hell
’cause you’re a Methodist or Baptist... a Democrat or a Republican... a Mason or an Elk. And you sure don’t catch hell
’cause you’re an American; ’cause if you was an American, you wouldn’t catch no hell. You catch hell ’cause you’re a black man.
You catch hell, all of us catch hell, for the same reason." He was unsparing in his criticism of "The Big Six"
(Martin Luther King Jr., Roy Wilkins, Whitney Young, Adam Clayton Powell Jr., A. Philip Randolph and James Farmer),
Negro leaders who he said had sold out to the white man, and added that the March on Washington was "nothing but
a circus, with clowns and all... white and black clowns." [Wikipedia] |

"The Gemini Management Panel decided that the Gemini launch schedules needed reexamination.
On November 24, NASA, Air Force, and industry program managers began regular meetings and

Erasing the Past...FBI report on the Hardie incidentDisney Tried to Build a Major Amusement Park in St. Louis, Missouri Sixty Years On | Nov. 17, 1963 (click here for video)
"At a dinner party, August Busch, Jr., Chairman of the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Company,
made an unfortunate remark that ended plans for Walt Disney to locate his new theme park
in St. Louis, Missouri. Mayor Raymond Tucker had suggested that the proposed park should
offer beer and liquor to its patrons, but the Disney Company had reiterated its position
that alcohol sales would be inconsistent with the company's image.
Busch remarked to Disney, "Any man who thinks he can design an attraction that is going to
be a success in this city, and not serve beer or liquor, ought to have his head examined."
A historian would write later, "[T]he remark had not offended Walt's sense of morality;
it was actually worse than that. It had insulted his business acumen."
Disney said nothing to Busch, but upon returning to his hotel, he canceled the next day's
plans to sign a letter of commitment to building Riverfront Square in St. Louis, and told
one of his vice-presidents, "It's all finished. We're not coming. Forget about it."
Five days later, he would find a site in central Florida for his next theme park." [Wikipedia]
