<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Includes link to audio of Malcolm X delivering Black man's history and The Black revolution.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The classic collection of major speeches, now bundled with an audio download of Malcolm X delivering two of them.</b> <p/> Malcolm X remains a touchstone figure for black America and in American culture at large. He gave African Americans not only their consciousness but their history, dignity, and a new pride. No single individual can claim more important responsibility for a social 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 most dynamic political thinkers. Yet, as Michael Eric Dyson has observed, "he remains relevant because he spoke presciently to the issues that matter today: black identity, the politics of black rage, the expression of black dissent, the politics of black power, and the importance of consolidating varieties of expressions within black communities--different ideologies and politics--and bringing them together under a banner of functional solidarity." <p/><i>The End of White World Supremacy</i> contains four major speeches by Malcolm X, including: "Black Man's History," "The Black Revolution," "The Old Negro and the New Negro," and the famous "The Chickens Are Coming Home to Roost" speech ("God's Judgment of White America"), delivered after the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Several of the speeches include a discussion with the moderator, among whom Adam Clayton Powell, or a question-and-answer with the audience. This new edition bundles with the book an audio download of Malcolm's stirring delivery of "Black Man's History" in Harlem's Temple No.7 and "The Black Revolution" in the Abyssinian Baptist Church.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>"The best examples in print of why, even dead, Malcolm is a man to measure one's self against."</b>--Julius Lester, <i>The New York Times Book Review</i> <p/><b>"An obligatory addition to the work."</b>--<i>Kirkus</i> <p/> "<b>Essential</b> to the documentation of the life of an outstanding teacher, orator, and activist leader."--<i>Library Journal</i> <p/> "<b>But the enduring appeal of Malcolm's message . . . asserts the right of a people to protect and improve themselves by their own hand.</b>"--Ta-Nehisi Coates, <i> Atlantic</i> <p/> "<b>He remains relevant because he spoke presciently to the issues that matter today</b>: black identity, the politics of black rage, the expression of black dissent, the politics of black power, and the importance of consolidating varieties of expressions within black communities--different ideologies and politics--and bringing them together under a banner of functional solidarity."--Michael Eric Dyson, quoted in <i>The Brown and White</i>, February 2015 <p/><br><br>The best examples in print of why, even dead, Malcolm is a man to measure one's self against.--Julius Lester, <i>The New York Times Book Review</i> <p/>An obligatory addition to the work.--<i>Kirkus</i> <p/>Essential to the documentation of the life of an outstanding teacher, orator, and activist leader.--<i>Library Journal/<i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Malcolm X</b> was an important, polarizing figure of the Civil Rights Movement.
