Years ago I was going on a cross country road trip (solo), and needed something to listen to. I decided to download all of his speeches, sort them in chronological order, and listen to all of them.

His continual evolution was nothing short of amazing. While the book is awesome, I appreciated him more when I listened to him directly.

This is also a great book: https://www.amazon.com/Malcolm-X-Reinvention-Manning-Marable...

It essentially makes him more human, exposing his flaws which you rarely hear about.

Also worth reading is Manning Marable's excellent biography Malcolm X: A Life of Reinvention.
