Whether with us in the flesh again, as some claim, or not, you’ll always be in our hearts. “In the last interview before her death, Marilyn pleaded unsuccessfully with a reporter to end his article like this: ‘What I really want to say: That what the world really needs is a real feeling of kinship. Everybody: stars, labourers, Negroes, Jews, Arabs. We are all brothers. Please don't make me a joke. End the interview with what I believe’. The media always ignored what Marilyn Monroe really believed. The real truth about Marilyn Monroe is that she was a caring, intelligent, compassionate civil rights advocate who was targeted, not by the Kennedys, but by J. Edgar Hoovers Mafia cohorts. Marilyn Monroe was a bona fide civil rights activist.
A victim of Hoover's McCarthyite witch hunts, Marilyn Monroe did not budge an inch, in the war against the terrorists who had to invent the word Un-American, to satisfy their extreme paranoia. In the words of the forever reasonable Marilyn Monroe, ‘some of those bastards in Hollywood wanted me to drop Arthur. Said it would ruin my career. They're born cowards and want you to be like them. One reason I want to see Kennedy win is that Nixon's associated with that whole scene.’”
J. Edgar is still with us too.
