FULL BIO: 'The Dead Are Arising: The Life of Malcolm X' (Part 2)
All Of It with Alison Stewart | Oct 20, 2020
After his father’s sudden death, Malcolm X was a teenager set adrift. In the second of five conversations, principal researcher Tamara Payne for the new biography, The Dead Are Arising: The Life of Malcolm X, describes the impact that being in foster homes had on a young Malcolm X, what took him to Boston and then New York – and how he ended up in jail at the age of 20, where he joined the Nation of Islam.
