Soul on Ice
Author: Eldridge Cleaver
Desc: The now-classic memoir that shocked outraged and ultimately changed the way America looked at the civil rights movement and the black experience. By turns shocking and lyrical unblinking and raw the searingly honest memoirs of Eldridge Cleaver are a testament to his unique place in American history. Cleaver writes in Soul on Ice "I'm perfectly aware that I'm in prison that I'm a Negro that I've been a rapist and that I have a Higher Uneducation." What Cleaver shows us on the pages of this now classic autobiography is how much he was a man.
