64. Oh, yeah. The pall bearers were all white - as his insistence.

The little pig was full of stories.

I forget the book I read many of them (it was in the '90s) - though I do recall hearing the FBI tried to get it banned (indirectly - by pressuring publishers to drop it).

One of the best-known stories from the beginning of his life - rather than the end - is that his mulatto mother (who hated her own African-American percentage - probably a good 25% or so), was aghast that her son turned out as mulatto as he did.

You see, she had married a very white guy in hope of avoiding that - who, sadly, suffered from mental illness.

So - of course - Edgar (his preferred nickname) got his Negro features from his mom, and his borderline personality from his dad.

Edgar - who adored his mother to a fault - adopted her hatred of Black people lock, stock and barrel. He started by straightening his hair as a teen - and, as you know, went on to be the scourge of the Civil Rights movement much later in life.

There's also good reason to believe he had Oakland, CA, flooded with heroin in the late '60s - out of sheer hatred for the Black Panthers.

In many ways - a "Trump-before-Trump" in his sheer level of criminality, his penchant for (and vulnerability to) extortion, and seething hatred for his fellow man.
