Essay from the year 2012 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: A, Northern Arizona University, course: African American Literature, language: English, abstract: Despite its limitations, Soul on Ice is not only the closest and most influential literary descendant of Malcolm X’s autobiography, but a significant advancement in both the prison-writing genre and American radical political consciousness. Of 389 pages of text, the adjudication of Malcolm X’s crime and subsequent incarceration encompasses 42 pages of his autobiography, compared to 171 pages devoted to his pre-prison life and 176 to his post-prison experiences. The bulk of X’s prison narrative concerns his conversion to Islam and goes into extensive detail about his intensive self-education program. Though there are brief appearances by his early Charlestown mentor, Bimbi, visits from his family, and anecdotes like the first time he refused to eat pork in the prison mess hall, there is little in-depth depiction or analysis of the inmates’ social economy. Conversely, Cleaver’s prison blocks, mess halls, and yards are represented as, “a kind of modern Greek agora” in more vivid detail than X’s brief anecdotes of, say, debates at Norfolk penal colony. The depth of Cleaver’s literary and spiritual debt to X is best summed up in his own words: "When I decided to join the Black Panther Party, the only hang-up I had was with its name. I was still clinging to my conviction that we owed it to Malcolm to pick up where he left off” (Harper 398-99).

The classic memoir that shocked, outraged, and ultimately changed the way America looked at the civil rights movement and the black experience. With a preface by Ishmael Reed • “As with Malcolm X, Cleaver’s book is a spiritual autobiography. An odyssey of a soul in search of itself, groping toward a personal humanism which will give meaning to life.”—The Progressive By turns shocking and lyrical, unblinking and raw, the searingly honest memoirs of Eldridge Cleaver are a testament to his unique place in American history. Cleaver writes in Soul on Ice, “I’m perfectly aware that I’m in prison, that I’m a Negro, that I’ve been a rapist, and that I have a Higher Uneducation.” What Cleaver shows us, on the pages of this classic autobiography, is how much he was a man.

Focusing on the intersection of literature and politics since the beginning of the 20th century, this book examines authors, historical figures, major literary and political works, national literatures, and literary movements to reveal the intrinsic links between literature and history.

Essays about the original Black Panther Party’s local chapters in seven American cities that seek “to move beyond the usual media stereotypes . . . Recommended” (Choice). The Black Panther Party for Self-Defense was founded in Oakland, California, in 1966 by Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale. It was perhaps the most visible of the Black Power groups in the late sixties and early seventies, not least because of its confrontational politics, its rejection of nonviolence, and its headline-catching, gun-toting militancy. Important on the national scene and highly visible on college campuses, the Panthers also worked at building grassroots support for local black political and economic power. Although there have been many books about the Black Panthers, none has looked at the organization and its work at the local level. This book goes beyond Oakland and Chicago examines the work and actions of seven local initiatives in Baltimore, Winston-Salem, Cleveland, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles. These local organizations are revealed as committed to programs of community activism that focused on problems of social, political, and economic justice.
