The Malcolm X You Were Never Taught | Dr. Ilyasah Shabazz

Dr. Ilyasah Shabazz, the daughter of Malcolm X and Dr. Betty Shabazz joins Storehouse and Friends hosts Tamira Chapman and Porscha Burke for an intimate and powerful conversation about her new book Malcolm in the Desert: Wisdom from the Spiritual Transformation of Malcolm X. This conversation goes places most people have never gone with this story. Dr. Shabazz talks about the 1964 pilgrimage to Mecca that changed her father forever. She sets the record straight on the iconic photograph that history used to define him. She opens up about growing up without her father, who was assassinated at just 39 years old, inside the very building that is now the Malcolm X and Dr. Betty Shabazz Memorial and Educational Center. And she talks about her mother, Dr. Betty Shabazz, who raised six daughters in the wake of one of the most public tragedies in American history and turned a place of grief into a monument of triumph. She also speaks on what Malcolm X would say about the world we are living in right now. The wars. The scrolling. The movements that start and stop. The vote that some people worked very hard to take away. And what it really means to respond instead of react. This is not the Malcolm X most of us learned about. This is the real one. Watch the full conversation and then go get the book. Malcolm in the Desert: Wisdom from the Spiritual Transformation of Malcolm X is available now wherever books are sold.
