"There's a worldwide revolution going on"
Dr. Bruce Perry, former collaborator, more recently biographer of Malcolm X, searched for decades after Malcolm X died for more speeches and interviews by Malcolm X. He spent years tracking down the man who had the tapes that led to this book, finding him in the rain forest jungles of Guyana, and being able to interview him while the revolutionary government of Marice Bishop still ruled Grenada. ...

Priceless Wisdom that still rings truth
This is the first book that I've ever read through it's entirety. It simply had me spellbound from beginning to end. This is one of the most important books on race relations and political sabatage as there can be on America. It holds up a mirror to our society , so we can see what has been and what is. To know yourself and love your yourself is the most powerful possession that we can have as an ...

Some excerpts
I think the best way to describe this great book is a few excerpts. "... by any means necessary. That's our motto. We want freedom by any means necessary. We want justice by any means necessary. We want equality by any means necessary." "We won't organize any black man to be a Democrat or a Republican because both of them have sold us out." "Those who claim to be enemies of the system ...

Discursos de un revolucionario norteamericano
Malcolm X fue el dirigente revolucionario más importante que surgió de las luchas de masas de los años 1950 y 1960 en los Estados Unidos. Llegó a una perspectiva de lucha intransigente contra el racismo, las guerras y el saqueo económico que son productos del sistema capitalista. Fundó su estrategia de lucha y su optimismo en una perspectiva internacional de las luchas de los oprimidos en contra ...

One man's struggle for freedom
Alex Haley and Malcom X weave the story of a lifetime of struggle. X's account of his life is so compelling that it has caused people of all races and creeds to question the way that they have been living their lives. Malcom X started off in Michigan, where he was discriminated against mildly, and overall well-liked. He got along fine with whites whom he knew. However, one of his English ...

Byline correction
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. ...

one of the top most important books ever
While you'd be wise to approach this book with some background knowledge and context, no matter what you're background you have to feel the power of these speeches that still strike as strong today as anything you'll ever read and Malcolm's logic and sincerity hit hard. Don't think you know about what Malcolm stood for if you haven't truly read or heard and engaged his words. I'd also highly ...

Amazingly Bad
This volume contains but three short speeches by Malcolm X, all of which are available elsewhere. These essays were then dubiously re-edited and reorganized by Archie Epps in some sort of misguided attempt to refine them. The first 60% of the book, moreover, is taken up by Epps' own scattered, incoherent essays, which are astonishingly bad. Epps had the idea of comparing Malcolm X (a person) ...

Malcolm X
This is an excellent source for material about the civil rights movement. It is the experiences of a Black Muslim in a White world. I recommend this book for Junior and Senior High School students.

A Legitimate Message for A Legitimate Cause
Malcolm X, along with Dr. King and Huey Newton, were essential to the Movement of civil rights in America. Although his message was viewed by some as rather hostile, was it really? Compared to the treatment of Negroes up until the 1960's,and even into today with the Klu Klux Klan and other ignorant white supremacist leagues, was anything but hostile. Malcolm X, in his autobiography, exploits ...

An informative and educational book on an important film.
"By Any Means Necessary" is an excellent book on the making of the film "Malcolm X" by director Spike Lee. Not only do we get a chance to see the film from the director's eye, but we also get to read all of the hassles he had to go through in order to come out with a film in Hollywood.The whole tone of the book, like all of Lee's books on his firms, is that of a diary. So what we're reading is ...

I am not worthy
I must say I feel rather humble in my attempt to review this autobiography, hence the brevity of my Review. However I cannot sufficiently stress how the account of Malcolm X's life has given me as a native African (and gives the reader regardless of ethnic background) a crucially important Sociological, Philosophical, Political, Islamic and Pan African insight into African American culture and ...

This is the best book on Malcolm's ideology! Buy it!
I first started teaching myself about Malcolm X when I was only in 6th grade, but I was only really concerned with his life story and not his ideas. The books I had read up through high school never gave any extra insight either (and I owned 10 at the time). I first read this book in the fall of '95, finding it by accident when I was going through the books by Malcolm my freshman year at ...
