Malcolm X
Malcolm X was an influential African American activist in the 1960s. He advocated for black nationalism and spoke out against racial injustices faced by African Americans. While he initially promoted black separatism, his views later evolved to be more inclusive of whites. He was a powerful speaker who urged African Americans to reject their slave-owned last names and replace them with "X" to represent lost African ancestry. Like Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X was assassinated for his civil rights work.

The crisis highlighted the danger of the Cold War and encouraged direct communication between the US and Soviet leaders to reduce tensions.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Lyndon B. Johnson was born in 1908 in Texas to Sam Ealy Johnson Jr. and Rebekah Baines Johnson. After graduating college in 1930, he worked as a teacher and got involved in politics, helping with a congressional campaign. In 1934 he married Claudia Alta Taylor, known as Lady Bird. Johnson was elected to the House of Representatives in 1937 and later the Senate in 1948. He was selected as John F. Kennedy's vice presidential candidate in 1960 and became president in 1963 after Kennedy's assassination.

While in prison, Malcolm became interested in the Nation of Islam and changed his name to Malcolm X. He rose to prominence as a minister and spokesman for the group.

He made a pilgrimage to Mecca and revised his views on white people before being assassinated in 1965 by Nation of Islam members.
Princess diana death conspiracies
There are three main conspiracy theories about Diana's death:
1) That Diana faked her own death with Dodi's help to escape media intrusion into her private life, though the crash may have gone wrong. However, it seems unlikely Diana would want to miss her children's lives.
2) That rogue MI6 elements killed Diana because they saw her as a threat to the monarchy. MI6 had bugged Diana before and some doubt they would risk further instability by killing her.
3) That Dodi's enemies in business orchestrated his assassination using Diana's death as cover, but targeting Dodi in Paris in a way that also killed Diana would have been an enormous risk.
