James Cone is a Christian minister who believes very strongly in racial justice for blacks. He believes that faith and political activism should be mixed and that blacks should have many priorities in fighting for justice and community, priorities that include both those of King and those of Malcolm X. His tone, therefore, is mixed. On the one hand, he brims with rage at the injustices perpetrated by whites against blacks. He also is very critical of those who would oppose Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X's memories, attacking one and worshiping the other.
