I NEVER EVER ANYWHERE SUGGESTED THAT MAYA ANGELOU WAS THE MOTHER OF ZERO.
And suggesting I made such a comment and had it removed, borders on fantasy.
The reason I ‘changed my mind’ about the possible arrival year of the kenyan, is as you very well know, the discovery of the newspaper article published in Hawaii.
What a piece of work you are...
“I NEVER EVER ANYWHERE SUGGESTED THAT MAYA ANGELOU WAS THE MOTHER OF ZERO.”
I would call the following comment by you (a comment responding to a FReeper who picked up on your “sorta tongue-in-cheek” suggestion that Maya was Barry’s mom I posted in my previous comment):

...We have visits and ties between them and Malcolm X and various others of the cast of characters, many in Egypt (or United Arab Republic at the time). An international port, big ships . . .
...and Malcolm converts to ‘true’ islam...methinks the Saudi’s convinced him his militancy would earn him nothing, but if he followed their instructions, he would never be short of money...
Then Angelou refers to the deeper friendship she formed with X in Ghana as like brother and sister.
...she spoke arabic, praises his ‘more moderate stance’ returned to the US in 1964, to help him establish his new organization...
Malcolm’s high-level connections within Islam, including the Saudis, Barry’s unexplained financial aid throughout his life — somebody’s looking out for him. That astonishing resemblance. And Stanley Ann names her daughter Maya.
...it’s like peeling an onion?
Anyone looked at hospital records in Cairo, 1961?
Somebody who doesn’t value their life maybe?
Like you said, sorta tongue-in-cheek.
What can I say? I’m trying my best to provide the background, if that’s what it indicates...maybe I should have written ‘many a truth lies in jest’
