Informationen zum Autor Rita Kiki Edozie is Professor of International Relations and African Affairs at the James Madison College at Michigan State University. Curtis Stokes is Professor of Political Theory and Black Politics in the James Madison College at Michigan State University. Klappentext A multidisciplinary reader that uses the biography of Malcolm X to interrogate key aspects of the Black world experience, this book presents Malcolm as a Black subject who represents, symbolizes, and associates meaning with the Black/Africana studies discipline. Via themes including discourse, race, culture, religion, gender, politics, and community, this reader elicits insights about the Malcolm iconography that contribute to the continuous formulation, deepening, and strengthening of Black Studies. Zusammenfassung The provocative debate about Malcolm X’s legacy that emerged after the publication of Manning Marable’s 2011 biography raised critical questions about the revolutionary Black Nationalist’s importance to American and world affairs: What was Malcolm’s association with the Nation of Islam?
