Right now, people all over the world are being confronted with the results of systemic racism in society: violence, pain, grief, outrage, doubt, activism—but most of all, a catalyst for change. The Black experience includes the experience of racism, and a deeper understanding from the people who have lived it was my driving purpose of reading Malcolm's X life.
A journey of a man from dropping out of school and entering a life in crime and drug addiction to finding redemption through human rights activism. Malcolm X was a complex individual. Like many people he struggled to understand himself and the world around him. But he remained diligent and throughout his life he stayed curious and searched for the truth. Through hard work and commitment, he proved that redemption is possible in one’s lifetime... A bright example and one of the most important activists in the history of Afro-American rights.
