Autobiography of Malcolm X
They called him the ‘angriest black man in America.
Malcolm X’s remarkable autobiography, completed just before his murder in 1965, ranges from Omaha and Michigan to Harlem and Mecca, and tells of a young, disenfranchised man whose descent into drug addition, robbery and prison was only reversed by his belief in the rights struggle for black America, and his conversion to the Nation of Islam.
Not only is this an enormously important record of the Civil Rights Movement in America, but also the scintillating story Malcolm X, a man who refused to allow anyone to tell him who or what he was.
