We speak with independent researcher Abdur-Rahman Muhammad, whose work is featured in the Netflix documentary Who Killed Malcolm X?" and helped ignite widespread public support for two men falsely convicted of assassinating the civil rights activist in 1965. Muhammad was in the courtroom this week as a judge exonerated 83-year-old Muhammad Aziz and the late Khalil Islam due to revelations uncovered by the Manhattan District Attorney's Office and the Innocence Project that key evidence was withheld at the trial. Aziz has maintained his innocence and addressed the court after he finally received an official apology, saying his false conviction was the result of a process that was corrupt to its core." Muhammad says being in the courtroom was surreal." To watch the government admit that these brothers were sent to prison for a crime they didn't commit was stunning."
