Even decades later, Malcolm X’s daughters are still continuing to keep their father’s legacy alive.
According to @bossipofficial, the six sisters–Attallah, Qubilah, Ilyasah, Gamilah, Malikah, and Malaak, have all teamed up with designer Yvonne Jewnell to unveil a clothing line in remembrance of their late father.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The newly-released collection–simply coined under the name, ‘Malcolm X: Legacy’, features a plethora of 1960s-themed designs, Malcolm X imagery, and infamous quotes that are inspired by the iconic human rights activist and his movement.

With the apparel brand, the ladies are hoping to enlighten people of all age groups about their father’s notable contribution to the civil rights community.

“It’s fashion, but we’re incorporating knowledge with it,” Gamilah Shabazz told Bossip.
‘Malcolm X: Legacy’ will make its official public debut during Harlem Fashion Week, which will kick off next month.
