Ilyasah Shabazz, the daughter of Malcolm X, is joining us on the mission to Mali. She and several other Muslin community leaders will be part of the international delegation.
"I'm thrilled to work with Malaria No More to alert Americans to the malaria crisis ravaging Africa," said Ms. Shabazz. "That I have a family connection to Mali only makes the problem that much more personal."
Ms. Shabazz has committed her life to exploring her family's legacy and
empowering youth. She is author of "Growing Up X".
