Malcolm Jenkins is an American former professional football player who was a safety for 13 seasons in the National Football League. Jenkins helped both the New Orleans Saints and Philadelphia Eagles win their only Super Bowls and made a major impact off the field as an activist, entrepreneur and philanthropist.

"In his new book, What Winners Won’t Tell You, Jenkins share with readers the insight he’s gained from winning and losing alike. One moment, Jenkins is riding high from being the only NFL Player to have Super Bowl victories against Hall of Fame quarterbacks, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady and then he’s navigating the harrowing low of a divorce from the mother of his children. In another moment he’s advocating for the advances of Black people in America, and then feuding publicly about the direction of this advocacy."

Hear about his life and career. There will be a book signing afterwards.

This is a FREE event and open to the public. No tickets or registration required. Seating is on a first come, first served basis.

Books will be available for purchase *while supplies last.

Cameras are allowed at our events, however, if you have not been given permission by the Wilmington Library director, you must remain seated with your camera. Please do not stand on chairs, in the aisles, or in the back of the room in an attempt to record or take photos. This will not only obstruct the view of others but also causes a fire hazard and potentially blocks our cameras around the room that will be LIVE streaming this event. The standing issue has also hindered guests (especially those in wheelchairs) from coming in and out of the Commons room to find a seat or to use the restroom. Please do not block entrances or exits. Everyone must find a seat. Staff members and/or volunteers will help you find a seat if you can not find one. Please be kind and courteous to one another as well as library staff who work hard to bring you these events.
