Been overjoyed to witness the huge reception to the Malcolm Lives! tour. Big thanks to everyone who is planning to come and meet me and be inspired by the unapologetic and uncompromising voice of Malcolm X, which we need in this moment. So, Milwaukee, Denver, and New Haven are

When you begin a tour to discuss a biography of someone who loved Jazz, who spent much of his young life dancing in Jazz clubs, who befriended several Jazz musicians—and a Jazz band is playing when you arrive at the Atlanta airport. That Sax! Feeling good and ready for this tour

Our experience together in Montclair Tuesday night was special. Not just because all those young people stood up in front of a large crowd and shared their thoughts and questions. Not just because a youngster stood up and told me he didn’t read biographies but when he started

Many thanks Lizzie Skurnick for reviewing Malcolm Lives! in the The New York Times. She calls it “vital, brilliant.” “Kendi writes, like Malcolm spoke, with a piercing clarity.” “The man we know as Malcolm X — adamant, uncompromising, funny, compassionate — has equipped us to face

Massachusetts! And Rhode Island and New Hampshire! As you know, Malcolm X spent his teenaged years in Massachusetts, where he began his awe-inspiring self-education, converted into a Muslim, and transformed into a revolutionary while incarcerated in Massachusetts prisons. There
