Summary

"Louis Lomax rose from a childhood in Valdosta, Georgia to become one of the most successful black journalists of the twentieth century. He was the man who introduced Malcolm X to the nation, remaining a close ally of both Malcolm and Martin Luther King for the duration of their lives. Lomax was also one of the most important journalists of the decade, setting precedents for black journalism in radio and television, and maintaining a literary profile that included newspaper reporting, longform magazine journalism, and bestselling books"--, Provided by publisher
