The Autobiography of Malcolm X is a powerful and poignant recounting of the life and growth of the Black Muslim movement, as told by its leader, Malcolm X. Originally published in 1964, this classic autobiography offers a unique and thought-provoking perspective on the American Dream and the racism that persists in society, hindering the ability of nonwhite citizens to achieve it. Recognized as one of Time's ten most important nonfiction books of the 20th century, The Autobiography of Malcolm X is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the United States and its ongoing issues with race. Praised as "extraordinary" and "a brilliant, painful, important book" by The New York Times, and as a "permanent place in the literature of the Afro-American struggle" by I. F. Stone, this book is a timeless testament to a movement and a man whose work remains unfinished.
