There was one guy, though, who seemed to have foreknowledge of the crimes and tried to warn people. This guy:
In his infamous "Helter Skelter" philosophy with which he indoctrinated his followers, Charlie Manson prophesized that blacks would come out of the ghettos and start slaughtering whites and that this would kick off a race war in the U.S., and the blacks would eventually come out on top. Though they then would soon have to turn to Charlie and the family to run things. With the exception of that last part, this was a mirror of what the Black Muslims themselves believed:
As explained by "Zebra" author Clark Howard:
".... the, primary beliefs of the Black Muslims began to be taught with greater zeal. Those beliefs were that the black man was morally and culturally superior, and was destined to rule the earth. The sect condemned Christianity as the chief stratagem of the continued enslavement of nonwhites, and preached that the white race was conceived of devils whose time to reign was coming to an end. It encouraged the reclamation of fallen blacks such as convicts, drug addicts, and so forth, through the study of their true history, through striving for economic independence, and by preparation for the Battle of Armageddon, which they believed would be the final struggle between good and evil, black and white."
Almost certainly, Charlie would have picked up this philosophy from his contacts with black convicts in his lengthy pre-1967 prison career.

Did the Black Muslims inspire Charlie in prison? Could this be one of the motives? The subject of the Black Muslim is brought up several times by Paul Watkins(Family member), Sandra Good(Family member) and Phil Phillips (Charlie's cell mate at McNeil Island Federal Penitentiary).
In Chapter 10 of the Paul Watkins autobiography, My Life with Charles Manson, Manson is quoted as follows: "The heavy dudes, though, are the [Black] Muslims. ...they'll be the ones who bring the shit down. Yeah, it's gonna come down hard... a full-on war."
Curiously, neither of the two standard books about the Family--Vince Bugliosi's Helter Skelter and Ed Sanders' The Family--mentions the NOI link. Instead they say Charlie was influenced by the Book of Revelation, Scientology, the Process Church of the Final Judgement, and the Beatles "White Album." An oversight, or did someone not want the obvious connections to be made?
What is certain is that just about the time Charlie and the gang are brought to trial for the infamous Tate/LaBianca murders, the wave of deadly black-on-white violence commences.
