Was thinking of getting the audio version of this for my 14 y/o son, but I have an 11 y/o daughter also. Is the content appropriate for her?
Michael Bennett It might be a little much for an 11-year-old. Especially the parts about his early years before prison.

He does use some complex words and ideas but he wants you to look things up, be they ideological/historical or linguistic, so you’re perfectly placed to read this given your level. You will likely find the language a challenge at times but Malcolm had an excellent way of making you understand his meaning. Enjoy!(less)

Why was his mother treated so mean by white folks?
