"Remember This House" (uncompleted manuscript)

"Remember This House" is an unfinished manuscript by James Baldwin that explores the lives and legacy of three influential African American men—Medgar Evers, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King Jr.—through Baldwin's personal reflections and stories. The work aims to illuminate their struggles for civil rights and the enduring fight against racial injustice in America. Baldwin intended it to serve as a powerful remembrance and reflection on race, identity, and societal change, but it remains incomplete. The manuscript provided the foundation for the documentary film "I Am Not Your Negro," which explores these themes and Baldwin's insights.
