The Sword and the Shield: The Revolutionary Lives of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr.
Peniel E. Joseph
This is a great time to read Prof Peniel Joseph's book The Sword and the Shield which looks at MLK and Malcolm …and seems perfect to look at the rioters today and that legacy/dichotomy of approach to protest.
