"Of the great twentieth century debates--William F. Buckley vs. Gore Vidal, Baldwin vs. Buckley, Chomsky vs. Foucault, and others--none was more internationally galvanizing or historically significant than Malcolm X's stand against Humphrey Berkeley at Oxford. And no one tells it better than Stephen Tuck. His riveting, highly original account traces Malcolm's evolution from working-class autodidact and Nation of Islam minister to globetrotting pan-Africanist embodying the nexus between decolonization, human rights, and black radicalism. He also trace's Oxford's historical transformation from the belly of the English Enlightenment and Britain's imperial project to the epicenter of struggles for racial justice. In short, not only did Malcolm X bring his most potent anticolonial arsenal, but he stepped into a powder keg. The result is an explosive debate and an explosive book."--Robin D. G. Kelley, author of Africa Speaks, America Answers: Modern Jazz in Revolutionary Times "A powerful addition to the Malcolm X literature from the fascinating angle of the Oxford debates, revealing the extraordinary range of his influence around the world. Passionate and objective in equal measure."--Ben Okri, author of The Famished Road and A Time for New Dreams "In this gripping book, Stephen Tuck tells the unlikely story of how the black radical Malcolm X came to speak to the Oxford Union, the bastion of privilege at the University of Oxford. The speech electrified his audience. Just two months later, he was dead. But as Tuck shows, his words left a legacy of inspiration, not only in the US, but even in Oxford itself. I could not put the book down."--Lyndal Roper, Regius Professor of History, Oxford University "Stephen Tuck's splendidly incisive book brings alive a fascinating but little-known episode in Malcolm X's colorful journey. One extraordinary night in 1964, the most controversial black freedom leader in the world took on the scions of the British establishment at the world's most prestigious debating society. With careful analysis, clever prose, and a forensic eye for detail, Tuck shows just what that night meant, not only for Malcolm himself, but for Britain--and for America. This book will make you think again--about the racial politics of the 1960s, and about the relationship between the two great Atlantic cousins. It confirms Tuck's reputation as one of the most brilliant stars in history's firmament."--Dominic Sandbrook, author of Never Had It So Good: A History of Britain from Suez to the Beatles "Tuck's in-depth research and perceptive analysis show clearly that debating at the Oxford Union was a major component of Brother Malcolm's determination to internationalize the battle against proponents of terroristic white supremacy/racism in the United States."--A. Peter Bailey, author of Witnessing Brother Malcolm X, founding member of the Organization of Afro-American Unity (OAAU) and editor of its newsletter
