The scholarly literature that engages Malcolm X, either specifically or within the context of a broader argument or investigation, is voluminous. The following list is not intended to be exhaustive; it consists primarily of a selection of the materials cited in this volume, together with books by the contributors and a small number of supplemental sources. The list has been divided under headings to make it easier to locate resources on particular aspects of Malcolm's life and legacy, though the interdisciplinary nature of the scholarship renders these categories somewhat fluid. The first headings contain primary materials - Malcolm's speeches, biographies of Malcolm, memoirs of those who lived and worked with Malcolm, and of course the Autobiography. The next sections are scholarly books and monographs, book chapters and essays, and materials related to film adaptations. After that are sections of more general or background information on the Nation of Islam, the 1960s civil rights movement, and African American culture. Within each category the entries are listed alphabetically by author or title; and except where indicated, entries for books, book chapters, and essays are intermixed.
