(PRWEB) December 24, 2003 --This book engages its readers in a serious discussion about how Malcolm X led the fight for social, political, and economic justice for African Americans and defended the rights of black people throughout the world. The book argues that Malcolm spent almost all of his entire adult life trying to liberate the oppressed and the oppressors alike by speaking to the oppressors pointedly and with audacious sincerity and challenging their long standing claim of racial superiority.

Introduction
I slowly saw that not only was I not free, but my brothers and sisters and I were not free. I saw that it was not just my freedom that was curtailed, but the freedom of everyone who looked like I did... It was this desire for the freedom of my people to live their lives with dignity and self-respect that animated my life, that transformed a frightened young man into a bold one, that drove a law abiding attorney to become a criminal, that turned a family-loving husband into a man without a home, that forced a life-loving man to live like a monk. I am no more virtuous or self-sacrificing than the next man, but I found that I could not even enjoy the poor and limited freedom I was allowed when I knew my people were not free.
Nelson Mandela
