Product Description
Product Description
The images of Malcolm X will be the first major photographic work on Malcolm X's life. Drawing on literally dozens of sources, many of them little known, this book presents over 150 photographs of Malcolm, ranging from his life on the streets of Boston and New York, to his life within the nation of Islam and his travels around the world. From his role as husband and father to his dynamic power as a speaker before thousands, Malcolm's world private and public - will be presented in text and images. The book will follow the evolution of Malcolm's life from his childhood through his assassination in 1965 and in so doing, it will mirror the experiences of many African Americans from the 1930s to the 1960s.

Many Perspectives on A Changing Man
2 Feb 2000
Format:Hardcover
Based on the acclaimed PBS documentary, this photographic biography of the controversial African American leader combines evocative photographs with poignant memories from friends, family members, admirers and a few critics. This multifaceted examination of the militant leader's turbulent life helped me understand his rage and power. If you read his autobiography, then you will find this book especially valuable. An excellent supplement to the documentary because it includes material that they had to exclude, due to time limitations, from the documentary.

Byline correction
18 Jan 2001
Format:Hardcover
I can't seem to find an address to which this information should be directed, so here it is: This title should be listed as 'Text by William Strickland, Oral Histories selected and edited by Cheryll Y. Greene' (that's me). That's the way the credits are listed on the front cover, title page, with the Library of Congress, etc. Please correct your search function to include this information. Sometimes people still look for the book using my name. Thank you. (I had to fill in the star rating above in order to send this to you. Please disregard.)
