Dawn-Marie Gibson is Senior Lecturer in Twentieth-Century US History at Royal Holloway, University of London, UK. She is co-editor of New Perspectives on the Nation of Islam (2017), author of The Nation of Islam, Louis Farrakhan and the Men Who Follow Him (2016), co-author of Women of the Nation: Between Black Protest and Sunni Islam (2014), and author of A History of the Nation of Islam: Race, Islam, and the Quest for Freedom (2012).

Gibson provides a clear-eyed view of Farrakhan and his history with the Nation of Islam. The book offers a much needed insight into the history, internal workings, and beliefs of the NOI. Neither supportive nor condemnatory, Gibson offers an important and balanced study of a complicated, controversial figure whose roles and influence, both negative and positive, deserve to be better understood.
