A collaborative effort between Christian scholar Lewis Baldwin and Muslim scholar Amiri Al-Hadid, Between Cross and Crescent details the interconnections between Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. Special attention is given to their cultural roots and perspectives, their faith claims and traditions, and their visions of the ideal society and world. Baldwin and Al-Hadid present a unique dialogue, the first of its kind between a Christian and a Muslim scholar, that examines the two leaders in an original light. They reject two common tendencies -- to reduce Malcolm and Martin to "misguided, angry Muslim imam" and "gentle, harmless Christian preacher" and also to treat the two as polar opposites engaged in a Manichaean conflict. In the most comprehensive and detailed work in print about these two activists, the authors provide insights into how Malcolm and Martin viewed each other, as well as how they viewed the family, women, children, and youth. They look into the historical forces underpinning the two leaders' religious and cultural perspectives, their approaches to religion and interfaith dialogue, and their efforts to relate the African-American freedom struggle to liberation movements across the globe. Creating a bridge between cultural and religious sensibilities, Between Cross and Crescent makes a provocative contribution to both African-American religious thought and interfaith dialogue.
