Manning Marable, noted scholar and historian, spent most of his life intrigued with the unique passion, power and fascination that was Malcolm X. Marable devoured every biography ever written on Malcolm X. However, the book that captivated Manning the most was the AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MALCOLM X as told to ALEX HALEY. But years after the very first time of reading of the AUTOBIOGRAPY OF MALCOLM X in 1969, Manning Marable discovered several questionable holes within Malcolm X's life story. Marable then set out on a journey that nearly took twenty years to complete. Mannings MALCOLM X is the most complete, thorough, and comprehensive biography of a man that has become a cultural icon. Beyond the controversy and accusations of homosexuality, affairs, and egotism, Manning Marable's MALCOLM X peels back the layers of a man that changed America forever! Listen in as Tracey Ricks Foster brings this biography to life!
