Nixon in 1968, and described Republican efforts to use race as a wedge issue -- on matters such as desegregation and busing -- to appeal to white southern voters. Ken Mehlman, the Republican National Committee chairman, this morning will tell the NAACP national convention in Milwaukee that it was "wrong."
http://www.nytimes.com/packages/html/books/phillips-southern.pdf Although the phrase "Southern Strategy" is often attributed to Nixon's political strategist Kevin Phillips, he did not originate it[15] but popularized it.[16] In an interview included in a 1970 New York Times article, Phillips stated his analysis based on studies of ethnic voting: From now on, the Republicans are never going to get more than 10 to 20 percent of the Negro vote and they don't need any more than that... but Republicans would be shortsighted if they weakened enforcement of the Voting Rights Act. The more Negroes who register as Democrats in the South, the sooner the Negrophobe whites will quit the Democrats and become Republicans. That's where the votes are. Without that prodding from the blacks, the whites will backslide into their old comfortable arrangement with the local Democrats.[1]

"Well, it's not the term I would use. Lots of people have different colloquial phrases," Wray said during testimony on the FBI's budget for 2020.
This is the biggest problem with right wingers, they talk about things they don’t understand. You have zero understanding of Malcolm X, his role in the Nation of Islam or their political strategy at the time. Malcolm X wanted to separate black Americans from all political parties and grow the Nation of Islam. He was famously militant while there was a civil disobedience/non violent movement working within the political parameters. But you don’t understand this dynamic and don’t understand Malcolm X’s repeated attacks on liberals was meant to undermine the nonviolent/civil disobedience movement. He's the one Who likes all our pretty songs And he likes to sing along And he likes to shoot his gun But he knows not what it means Knows not what it means - Nirvana
