When a man dies, especially a man like Malcolm X, those who survive him often feel compelled to study his life. My own reading of The Autobiography of Malcolm! indicates that the most important factor in his career may have been his ability to modify his own life greatly. This man made conscious changes in his existence. The four names he used symbolize these changes. The four distinct yet interrelated lives, and the names he lived them under, make up the pattern of his life.

Young Black nationalism in America Edited by JOHN H. BRACEY, JR. Northern Illinois University AUGUST MEIER Kent State University ELLIOTT RUDWICK Kent State University THE BOBBS-MERRILL COMPANY, INC. Indianapolis and New York 1970 BY THE BOBBS-MERRILL COMPANY, INC. Printed in the United States of America Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 79-99161. First Printing To three Black Queens Helen, my mother Connie, my sister Jessica, my wife J.H.B. To Harold and Esther Wilson A.M. For Jo Ann Bogle and Patrick W. Riddleberger E.R. Foreword The fact that the phrase "the past illuminates the present" is abused should not prevent us from using it where it deserves to be used. Few, we believe, will turn away from this pioneering study of black nationalism without a deepened understanding of the movements that seemingly have burst upon the battle-scarred American racial scene since the mid-1960s. This is the first collection of documents devoted exclusively to black nationalism, and the introduction is one of the few essays that attempt to lay out a pattern for black nationalism over the sweep of American history. The editors, two of them historians, one a sociologist, have illuminated their subject in at least three ways. First, they have documented the persistence of black nationalism in American life. Simply put, the ideas that inform the current slogans of "Black Power" and "Black is Beautiful" have a long lineage.

  • Civil Rights and Hofstra University
    CIVIL RIGHTS AND HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY Hofstra University and its students, staff, and faculty first had an influence on the Civil Rights Movement during the 1960’s. Students from Hofstra attended marches, faculty participated in rallies, and administrators elected impressive individuals for the Board of Trustees and encouraged well known speakers to come to campus. This Hofstra University Library Special Collections Online Exhibit focuses on the time period from 1965-1971, and the individuals who were making news. MARCH ON SELMA, 1965 MARCH ON SELMA, 1965 Hofstra students showed their support for those who marched with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in Selma, Alabama. They marched for equal voting rights in New York as additional student groups across the country marched to show their support under the “We Shall Overcome” banner. CIVIL RIGHTS AND HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY | HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY LIBRARY SPECIAL COLLECTIONS ONLINE EXHIBIT DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. Civil rights leader, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., was honored by Hofstra University in 1965, less than one year after receiving the Nobel Peace Prize and three years before his assassination. Hofstra President Clifford Lord and the Board of Trustees invited Dr. King to receive an honorary degree and address the graduating class of 1965. Dr. King’s longtime attorney, Harry Wachtel (who subsequently taught political science at Hofstra, 1967-71) was a friend of Hofstra’s Board of Trustees member Bernard Fixler. Mr. Fixler and Mr. Wachtel helped to make arrangements for Dr. King’s Commencement appearance. PHOTOGRAPH OF CLIFFORD LORD AND DR. KING RECEIVING HIS HONORARY DEGREE.
