Welcoming Dr. Ibram X Kendi to the Detroit Public Library
Friday, May 16th, 2025
4:30 pm - 5:30 pm at the Main Library
Join us to commemorate Malcolm X's 100th Birthday! The Detroit Public Library is hosting Dr. Ibram X Kendi to celebrate his new book Malcolm Lives!, a book about Malcolm X's youth. The book is geared toward readers aged 10 -14. It was written in collaboration with the Malcolm X Estate and is a powerful biography for young readers. We believe that people of all ages will learn from this book.
Books are available before the event at Source Booksellers. Unfortunately Dr. Kendi will not be able to sign books at the event.
