Author Description

Malcolm X gave Black Americans not only their consciousness, but their history, their dignity, and a new pride. No single individual can claim a more important responsibility for a sociological and historical leap forward such as the one sparked in America in the sixties. When, in 1965, Malcolm X was gunned down on the stage of a Harlem theater, America lost one of its eminent political thinkers. "The End of White World Supremacy" contains four major speeches by Malcolm X, including the famous "Chickens Come Home to Roost" speech. Together, these four speeches cast new light on a man who ranks among the great leaders and teachers of his time.
