Kehinde Andrews: Nobody Can Give You Freedom

Malcolm X is a titanic figure in political history, but also one of the most misunderstood. Kehinde Andrews, the UK’s first professor of Black Studies, argues that in a world shaken by decades of injustice and racism, Malcolm’s political mission is more urgent than ever. In his new book Nobody Can Give You Freedom, Kehinde reveals the real revolutionary programme of a man who, if he were alive today, would tell us to overturn this wicked system for good. Join us for an in-conversation with Kehinde, followed by a panel featuring local anti-racist activists.
