The Diary of Malcolm X: 1964

Read Press Release from Third World Press Announcing Landmark Publication of This Book The heart of the book is Malcolm’s impressions, his personal observations on the people he meets and the circumstances he encounters, his own feelings of trepidation and inadequacy. There are segments in which the book will be complemented by passages from Malcolm’s autobiography, though in our book his immediate reactions have not been disturbed by editors. And in several ways and instances the diary amplifies the autobiography. “From the pages of his Diary, we hear his voice distilled and pure, devoid of outside interference, manipulation or intent. With his Diary, the entire world can now accurately assess the value, contribution and magnitude of Malcolm X.” -Ilyasah Shabazz, daughter of Malcolm X
