Summary:
By Any Means Necessary editors-Herb Boyd, Ron Daniels, Maulana Karenga and Haki Madhubuti-are in unison when stating: "Our purpose here with this collection is to continue, and to expand, the debate arising from Marable's biography." Through the collective vision of these four scholars, wordmakers and educators, readers now have a comprehensive view of the Marable text as well, as new scholarship and insight on Malcolm X-the man, "Real, Not Reinvented."
