Description
National Book Award–winning author Ibram X. Kendi brings Malcolm X to life for young people. As a youth, Malcolm endured violence, loss, hunger, racism, and incarceration. He emerged to make a lasting impact as a Black Muslim, a family man, and a revolutionary. His life story shows the promise of every human being.
Kendi draws on Malcolm’s oratory style, using repetition and rhetoric. Short chapters echo his fast walk. Never-before-published letters, notes, flyers, and photos give readers a front-row seat to his life. One hundred years after his birth, Malcolm’s antiracist legacy lives on in this thoughtful and accessible book.
Just like history, Malcolm lives.
