The Education of Charles 67x |
The political philosophy of Black Nationalism, which maintains that African Americans can govern themselves in their own
nation, has deep roots in Chicago. Journalist Askia Muhammad returns to Chicago to explore his grounding in Black
Nationalism. As editor of the Nation of Islam's newspaper 20 years ago, he learned a great deal about Black Nationalism at
Elijah Muhammad's dinner table in Hyde Park.
The Education of Charles 67X is a SOUNDPRINT classic produced by Askia Muhammad and Debra Morris.
