Black Bird Press News & Review: Marvin X's Brief Career in Academia: UC Berkeley, A Case Study by Dr. J. Vern Cromartie of the Contra Costa College Sociology Department:
Marvin X has argued that if contemporary professors of Black Studies want to be acceptable to the ancestors in Africa it will be important for them to ―make peace with the trees and swamps and bayous of Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana (p. 85).
Likewise, Marvin X has argued that contemporary professors of Black Studies need to connect with Black people in the ghetto. In his view, it is necessary for contemporary professors of Black Studies to ―make peace with them and ―teach them to make peace with themselves (p. 85).
