Hardcover with dust jacket

 

Written by Ibram X. Kendi in collaboration with the Malcolm X Estate, this powerful biography for young readers--written by a #1 New York Times-bestselling, National Book Award-winning, and TIME 100 author--is a new classic.

 

This ground-breaking narrative biography of one of the most influential Americans of all time is a perfect read-alike to Dr. Kendi’s other #1 New York Times Bestselling books—like How to Be an Antiracist and Stamped for Young Readers—as well as Steve Sheinkin’s most beloved titles. It will be published 100 years after Malcom’s birth and 60 years after his death.

Written with a cleared-eyed, no-nonsense tone and unmatched empathy for both his subject and readers, Dr. Kendi weaves his anti-racist ideology into this propulsive telling of Malcolm X’s life—from birth to death. He provides context for both Malcolm’s choices—and those around him—not just painting an intimate picture of a famous figure, but of that time period in America. Readers will learn about the history of racism and Malcolm's journey to becoming an anti-racist in short, evocative chapters interspersed with black-and-white images of exclusive archival documents and photos from the Malcolm X Collection at the NYPL Schomburg Center.

This biography illustrates that Malcolm's true legacy is a journey toward anti-racism. And that just like history, Malcolm lives.

Includes extensive backmatter.
