Stamped from the Beginning premieres today on Netflix around the world. This morning, I watched the documentary for this first time with my parents, my brother, my partner, and our daughters. What a surreal experience, watching them view and interact with the film. 1/3

📚Book Announcement!📚 The most dangerous racist idea—great replacement theory—has become the most dominant political theory of our time. Great replacement theory and its metastasizing variants claim that White people—along with Christians, citizens, men, heterosexuals, and ethnic majorities—are facing invasions and in need of dictatorial protection. But it is not a new idea: its roots trace back to some of the most harmful ideologies in the history of the modern world. I chart great replacement theory’s reemergence and global spread in my new book, CHAIN OF IDEAS: The Origins of Our Authoritarian Age. Coming March 17, 2026. Pre-order now at the link below and wherever books are sold. #greatreplacementtheory #books #bookworm #racism #racist #facism #democracy #authoritarianism #authoritarian #bookaholic #bookish #chainofideas

Malcolm X turns 100 on May 19, 2025. To commemorate his birthday, I am proud to announce the first major biography of Brother Malcolm for young readers in more than thirty years: MALCOLM LIVES! The book is written in short, swift chapters that echo Malcolm’s trademark fast walk. It is written in scenes that capture the world both as Malcolm saw it back then, and as we experience it today. Showing the changing and consistent landscape. Having Malcolm speak to what was, what is. Bringing history to life. Thanks to the Malcolm X estate and the support of the great Dr. Ilyasah Shabazz, the book contains an abundance of Malcolm’s never-before published letters, notes, and photos. Making this biography so official. In this time, when Black people are facing re-segregation and re-colonization, when Muslims are facing genocide, when human beings from all races and religions are having their rights stolen, the revolutionary human rights message of Malcolm X lives. His courage lives. His capacity for change lives. His offering to the Black radical tradition lives. His antiracist love of Black people, of Islam, of humanity lives. Malcolm lives in youth refusing to cower in the face of power. #MALCOLMLIVES! releases May 13, 2025 for all readers ages 10 and up. Pre-order now wherever books are sold at a link in my bio. #malcolmx Cover artist: MANON

When the late John Lewis won the National Book Award in 2016, he recalled being denied access to the library as a boy. To think, kids can go into #libraries today but are being denied access to books. To think, we are still fighting for the right to read. #RightToReadDay

It’s here! As an author, as a scholar, there may be no better feeling than holding years of writing, years of researching, years of reflecting in your hands for the first time. In one week, hopefully this book, Chain of Ideas, will be in your hands. Pre-order now:

Enjoyed my sit down with Marc Lamont Hill here in Boston Frugal Bookstore for a BETNews and CBS News program called America in Black. It premiers this Sunday (2/19) at 10 pm BET. BTW: Researchers find as early as 3 years old kids can have an “adult-like” concept of race. 1/3

The maintenance of racism requires the public’s ignorance of racism. As the Trump administration strives to unwind the Department of Education and defund our libraries, I wanted to elevate these words. I went on to explain how enslavers legislated for ignorance. #departmentofeducation #forourlibraries
