With recordings unearthed from libraries and sound archives, and made widely available here for the first time, <i>Say It Loud! </i>includes powerful speeches by Malcolm X, Angela Davis, Martin Luther King Jr., James H. Cone, Toni Morrison, Colin Powell, and many others. <p/> Bringing the rich immediacy of the spoken word to a vital historical and intellectual tradition, <i>Say It Loud! </i>illuminates the diversity of ideas and arguments pulsing through the black freedom movement.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The speeches ... collectively provide a sweeping perspective on evolving issues of black identity in the struggle for equality.<br>--<i>Booklist</i> <p/>The electrifying speeches--all recorded at live events--focus directly on the questions, the struggles, the defeats and the triumphs of the 1960s to present-day America.
