vickymin13 's review for:
The Autobiography of Malcolm X
by Malcolm X
5/5
Wow where do I even begin. I first picked up this book over two years ago and am just now finishing because it's so long but I truly believe it's such an important book that everyone should read (especially now).
This is a pretty comprehensive retelling of his entire life and seeing his background, it really puts into perspective him being so (validly) militant. Almost everything he preaches about race I find myself agreeing with as true still to this day. It's so crazy how in the US history curriculum we only learn that he's "violent" when that's not the case at all. It's sad to see so much of what he fought for still not resolved and this autobiography serves as a great reminder that we all need to keep ourselves aware and educated.
