Opis i karakteristike
Malcolm X's The Autobiography of Malcolm X was written in collaboration with Alex Haley, author of Roots, and includes an introduction by Paul Gilroy, author of The Black Atlantic, in Penguin Modern Classics.
From hustling, drug addiction and armed violence in America's black ghettos Malcolm X turned, in a dramatic prison conversion, to the puritanical fervour of the Black Muslims. As their spokesman he became identified in the white press as a terrifying teacher of race hatred; but to his direct audience, the oppressed American blacks, he brought hope and selfrespect. This autobiography (written with Alex Haley) reveals his quickwitted integrity, usually obscured by batteries of frenzied headlines, and the fierce idealism which led him to reject both liberal hypocrisies and black racialism.
Vilified by his critics as an antiwhite demagogue, Malcolm X gave a voice to unheard AfricanAmericans, bringing them pride, hope and fearlessness, and remains an inspirational and controversial figure.
Malcolm X (192565), born Malcolm Little in Omaha, and also known as ElHajj Malik ElShabazz, lost both his parents at a young age. Leaving school early, he soon became part of Harlem's underworld, and in 1946 he was sentenced to ten years' imprisonment. It was in prison that Malcolm X converted to Islam. Paroled in 1952, he became an outspoken defender of Muslim doctrines, formed the Organization of AfroAmerican Unity in 1963, and had received considerable publicity by the time of his assassination in 1965.
