Malcolm X: A Deeper Purpose

with Kehinde Andrews, Sue Brown, Bonnie Greer and John Siddique

To mark the centenary of Malcolm X’s birth, we are partnering with Writers Mosiac to present an event that remembers the legacy of his impact, his internationalism and his emphasis on the urgency of solidarity in a world that increasingly insists on dividing us.

The event will feature author and academic Kehinde Andrews whose latest book, Nobody Can Give You Freedom, invites the reader to re-discover Malcolm’s revolutionary philosophy outside of the myths fed to us through films and books. Kehinde will be joined by poet and facilitator Sue Brown and writer and broadcaster Bonnie Greer, who wrote about her own history with Malcolm as part of the Writers Mosiac Malcolm X quarterly special edition.

This event is chaired by John Siddique and supported by Writers Mosiac and the Royal Literary Fund.
