he grandson of US political activist Malcolm X has died in Mexico City following a fight in a bar, say Mexican officials.

Malcolm Shabazz, 29, succumbed in hospital to multiple injuries he suffered on Thursday.

Mexico's attorney general's office said an investigation into the incident was under way.

The US state department said that it was in contact with the family and offering appropriate assistance.

Shabazz was discovered with fatal wounds at Plaza Garibaldi, a popular tourist area packed with bars and restaurants, in the early hours of Thursday, officials said.

Miguel Suarez, a union activist who was travelling with Shabazz, said they had been in the country as part of their efforts to advocate more rights for Mexican construction workers in the US.

Consenting? Do Muslim women have any other choice?

Certainly! If you are from a fake culture, only thing that matters is what others think about you. Betcha his “stays” in a slum.

He, no doubt, thought he was entitled to a paid bar tab and cried racist when he had to pay?

“Shabazz is survived by his mother and two daughters.”

For what it's worth, Paris Lewis' (aka Malik Zulu Shabazz) 'uniform' looks better than the 'uniforms' of his 'foot soldiers' (aka 'thugs' in common parlance).

Thuglife!

Thanks Daffynition.

side note -- Illegal foreign construction workers should be deported.

Was he wearing a hoodie?!?
