A minor aside: the graffiti did not just appear. It was put on the basement walls by Malcolm X resident Kofi Taha. It was his attempt to wound the school more in the wake of his firebombing of South College a few weeks earlier. Taha's accomplis, fellow student Nicholas Haddad, was never tried. Shortly after the bombing he was shot in the head by the son of a faculty member in a drug deal gone bad. Dark days for Wes, indeed. "...there was racist graffiti that appeared in Malcolm X House."
