“During this transition period, Malcom X stated, more than once, that he intended to collaborate with labor unions, socialists, and any others dedicated to eliminating injustices to the Negro.… Mr. Breitman has more than adequately documented speeches, interviews, and writings of a charismatic leader to prove his point—Malcolm X was not merely a leader of black men, he was emerging as a leader of all men.” —Library Journal
