| Zusammenfassung: | Syndicated television and radio host. Serial liar. Pioneering journalist. Convicted criminal. Close ally of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. Publicity-seeking provocateur. Louis Lomax's life was a study in contradiction. In this biography, Thomas Aiello traces the complicated and fascinating arc of Lomax's life and career, showing how the contradictions, tumult, and inconsistencies that marked his life reflected those of 1960s America. Aiello takes readers from Lomax's childhood in the Deep South to his early confidence schemes to his emergence as one of the loudest and most influential voices of the civil rights movement. Regardless of what political position he happened to take at any given moment, Lomax preached "the art of deliberate disunity," in which the path to democracy could only be achieved through a diversity of opinions. Engaging and broad in scope, The Life and Times of Louis Lomax is the definitive study of one of the civil rights era's most complicated, important, and overlooked figures |

Serial liar. Pioneering journalist. Convicted criminal. Close ally of Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. Publicity-seeking provocateur. Louis Lomax's life was a study in contradiction. In this biography, Thomas Aiello traces the complicated and fascinating arc of Lomax's life and career, showing how the contradictions, tumult, and inconsistencies that marked his life reflected those of 1960s America. Aiello takes readers from Lomax's childhood in the Deep South to his early confidence schemes to his emergence as one of the loudest and most influential voices of the civil rights movement. Regardless of what political position he happened to take at any given moment, Lomax preached "the art of deliberate disunity," in which the path to democracy could only be achieved through a diversity of opinions. Engaging and broad in scope, The Life and Times of Louis Lomax is the definitive study of one of the civil rights era's most complicated, important, and overlooked figures Lomax, Louis Emanuel 1922-1970 (DE-588)132752735 gnd rswk-swf SOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / African American Studies bisacsh African American journalists United States Biography African Americans in television broadcasting United States Biography (DE-588)4006804-3 Biografie gnd-content Lomax, Louis Emanuel 1922-1970 (DE-588)132752735 p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-1-4780-1068-5 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback 978-1-4780-1180-4 https://doi.org/10.1215/9781478013150 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
