You've just hit upon the crux of the entire matter. If MX is the father, and impregnated a white woman, he would have to keep it hidden, or destroy his image. Hence, all the secrecy surrounding Barry.
That IS the crux! The truth would have RUINED him. And how did HE try to destroy Elijah Mohammad? By accusing him of having extra-marital affairs.
I really doubt it’s Malcom X. I don’t think it’s Sr. either. Probably some black guy that lived in Seattle IF Stanley is the mother which I highly doubt. X didn’t go out with white women and if he had chosen to do it once why would it have been Stanley. She is ugly, ugly ugly! If he was going to have a fling with a white woman I think he would have at least chosen a pretty one.
I still think he has Dunham genes, I just don’t think they came from Stanley ANNE.
MX was definitely NOT into white women. And was pretty outspoken about it.
I do not think SAD was the mother; all evidence points to a different scenario than the promoted myth. The mother may not have been of European ethnicity at all. MX had a white grandfather and was not very dark; if the mother was also somewhat medium complexioned herself rather than pale like SAD, that would account for the complexion of Zero very easily.
