  • Very interesting and informative book

    They just don’t teach enough about Malcolm X because they want to avoid the controversy. He is probably the most misunderstood advocate for human rights. They want kids to believe in the feds. It’s a system that puts emphasis on government trust and its books like these that get overlooked and forgotten. The description of the book condition was accurate and I was very pleased with the condition of the book.
