What is the legacy of the Nation of Islam in the struggle for Black equality?

The narratives we use to help us look back at the past to celebrate our triumphs over Jim Crow seem to fall short of remembering all that the Nation of Islam did to help lay the foundation. In this episode of Left of Black, host and Duke University Professor Mark Anthony Neal sits down with University of Mississippi of History Professor  Garrett Felber to discuss the Black Muslims through the lens of his latest book, Those Who Know Don’t Say: The Nation of Islam, the Black Freedom Movement, and the Carceral State, published by UNC Press, 2020.
