This was an excellent read--a deep dive into, not just Malcolm X the man, but also the forces that shaped him and that he in turn shaped throughout his short life.

Wow, I learned soooo much from this book and realized just how little I knew about Malcolm X. From the trouble-making of his youth, to his time in prison, his journey through the Nation of Islam, and then the rapid ending of his life. Honestly, I was shocked to learn that Malcolm was really just coming into his own during the final months of his life, and I just can’t stop thinking about everything else he would have said and accomplished had he not been assassinated.
