A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This groundbreaking and highly acclaimed work examines the two most influential African-American leaders of this century. While Martin Luther King Jr saw America as 'essentially a dream... as yet unfulfilled';, Malcolm X viewed America as a realised nightmare. James Cone cuts through such superficial assessments of King and Malcolm as polar opposites to reveal two men whose visions are complementary and moving toward convergence.
