Elijah Muhammad was one of the most significant and controversial black leaders of the twentieth century. His followers called him the Messenger of Allah, while his critics labeled him a teacher of hate. Southern by birth, Muhammad moved north, eventually serving as the influential head of the Nation of Islam for over forty years. Clegg not only chronicles Muhammad's life, but also examines the history of American black nationalists and the relationship between Islam and the African American experience.
