Yesterday was the anniversary of Malcolm X’s birth, who would have turned 88. We host a conversation about Malcolm X’s legacy and his relevance for today with:
Kevin Alexander Gray, author of The Decline of Black Politics: From Malcolm X to Barack Obama and Waiting for Lightning to Strike: The Fundamentals of Black Politics, and organizer for the Harriet Tubman Freedom House Project;
and Jared Ball, Associate Professor in the Department of Communication Studies at Morgan State University and co-editor of A Lie of Reinvention: Correcting Manning Marable’s Malcolm X.
