Malcolm X, Unpublished Autobiography Chapters

Newly discovered manuscripts of "The Autobiography of Malcolm X" reveal that co-author Alex Haley softened some of Malcolm X's more militant language before publication. The unpublished chapters include a prediction that the U.S. would elect an African American president by the year 2000. Scholars are now examining how Haley's own agenda may have shaped the final version of the iconic book.
