Description: The Diary of Malcolm X. Brand New. Rare book you can only find at the Alligator Swamp From the back of the book: "Out of the thick darkness comes sudden light." -Malcolm X "Malcolm X remains unquestionably one of the most intriguing minds in liberation history anywhere. This newly published provides an insight to the workings of that mind, both in contemplation and action. As one who did meet and interact with him on his own currently embattled terrain, Nigeria, I cannot help speculating what directions its contents may have taken, given the convulsions within, and attributable to, a religion that worked such profound transformations in his personal odyssey. From whichever perspective, this invaluable addition to the library of socio-political thinkersand seekers after a just world order." Winner of the 1986 Nobel Prize for Literature "Malcolm X is one of the truly important figures of the twentieth century. His humanity and honesty, and his strict adherence to LIVING his beliefs, literally practicing what he preached, were remarkable. Malcolm lives on and is still enriching our lives." "Reading Malcolm's is to see reflexivity in the process of being engaged. Malcolm learned how to think about his own thinking and learn from and be transformed by his thinking about his mental activity. Like Du Bois, Malcolm's thinking was bi-directional with one eye on learning from self-evaluation and a constant focus on the best interests of his people. We thank the universe for Malcolm's life." . Professor Emeritus, Yale University and Teachers College, Columbia University "The publication of is a great historical event in African American intellectual history. Reading these entries has the effect of hearing a profound thinker's most private and uncensored thoughts about everything from his split with Elijah Muhammad to the cost of 16mm film in Accra. I found this a riveting and deeply moving experience, one that only made me even sadder at the senseless of his assassination. Every student of Malcolm X and the history of black political leadership should read this compelling book." , . Harvard University "Malcolm was my brother, friend, mentor, and often confidant. He was a remarkable man whose thirst for truth and righteousness for all people set him on a path that often isolated him from others. But he knew it was the path he must walk, regardless if he found himself walking alone. Malcolm inspired me with his eloquence and wisdom. He still inspires me. Sometimes, the right road isn't the easy road. It takes courage, conviction, and personal sacrifice for truth and justice. Malcolm was that kind of man.
