Following Baldwin's 1987 death, publishing company McGraw-Hill sued his estate to recover the $200,000 advance they had paid him for the book. The lawsuit was dropped in 1990.[1]
The manuscript forms the basis for Raoul Peck's 2016 documentary film I Am Not Your Negro.[3] In February 2017, Vintage International published the book I Am Not Your Negro to accompany the documentary.[2]
