Black Star, Crescent Moon

Sohail Daulatzai in conversation with Sukant Chandan on the subject of Daulatzai's newly published book: 'Black Star, Crescent Moon: The Muslim International and Black Freedom Beyond America.'

'Black Star' documents and analyzes the impact of the Muslim International - the tradition of radical and popular resistance to (and liberation from) western imperialism in the internationalist traditions of those inspired by Islam - from that of the Non-Aligned Movement, to the impact on the Nation of Islam and especially Malcolm X as well as Muhammad Ali, as well as the cultural impact manifested in Hip-Hop and Cinema.
