{"product_id":"history-of-the-nation-of-islam","title":"History of the Nation of Islam","description":"This book provides a fascinating, unparalleled look at the Nation of Islam, including its history, the complexity of its views towards orthodox Muslims, women, and other minorities, and the trajectory of the group after the 1995 Million Man March.\nThe release of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's extensive archive of surveillance files, interviews, and firsthand accounts has made it possible to reveal the truth behind the myths and misperceptions about the Nation of Islam. This comprehensive resource catalogues the times, places, and people that shaped the philosophies from its formative years through to its present incarnation.\n\nThe definitive source on the subject, \u003ci\u003eA History of The Nation of Islam: Race, Islam, and the Quest for Freedom\u003c\/i\u003e draws on over a dozen interviews, along with archival and rarely-used sources. The book departs from the usual \"Malcolm X-centric\" treatment of the subject, and instead examines the early leadership of Fard Muhammad, challenges conventional views on Malcolm X, and explores the present day internal politics of the movement post Louis Farrakhan's retirement.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing Plc","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":54220284035416,"sku":"9780313398070","price":62.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/history-of-the-nation-of-islam","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
