  • "A collection from four major speeches by Malcolm X that Julius Lester called in The New York Times Book Review,The best examples in print of why, even dead, Malcolm is a man to measure one's self against. 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 book portion of The End of White Supremacycontains 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. Also included in the package are two audio cassettes. Here, in almost two hours of recorded material, is the stirring voice of Malcolm X himself in two parallel but very different speeches, one delivered in Harlem?s Mosque No. 7, the second at Adam Clayton Powell?s Abyssinian Baptist Church. These speeches were not broadcast but were recorded, on, Malcolm?s instructions, by one of his most trusted and faithful lieutenants, then Benjamin 2X, now Benjamin Karim. ?Black Man?s History? shows Malcolm as minister and teacher, providing his Muslim audience with the cultural roots and lore he knew African-Americans needed in order to recover their pride and dignity. ?The Black Revolution? is a ringing call for black separatism, ?a passionate prophecy of judgment on white supremacy? (Booklist). To hear Malcolm?s words, in his own voice, is to understand why the New York Timesnot only called him ?a political leader and social analyst? but likened him to ?an Old Testament prophet.?"
