<p>It looks like <strong>Beyonce</strong> isn&#8217;t the only one in her family who will be getting a cute little coin at the box office.</p>
<p>A new report via <a href="https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/matthew-knowles-memoir-film-tv-adpatation-beyonce-1235835341/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Variety</a> reveals that her dad,<strong> Mathew Knowles</strong>, has secured himself a deal with Say Unkel Entertainment to turn his 2017 memoir, &#8216;Racism from the Eyes of a Child,&#8217; into a feature film and TV series.</p>

<p>Unkel has finalized a film script based on the book, which centers around Knowles&#8217; troubling childhood in the &#8217;60s amid a surge of civil rights race riots in Alabama.</p>
<p>In the book, Knowles delved deep into his past by recounting his early encounters with racism. He also touches on the complexities of colorism people faced within the black community.</p>
<p>Additionally, the 71-year-old rooted his civil rights activism deeply in his own personal experiences, which he candidly shared in his memoir.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Mathew Knowles Opens Up About His Struggles Growing Up In Alabama</h3>
<p>Knowles detailed his experiences of physical attacks during many peaceful riots, and how he was one of only six Black students in a predominantly white school he attended.</p>
<p>Knowles credits his parents, Martin Luther King Jr., Ralph Abernathy, and Albert Turner, for guiding and shaping him into the man he became during a time of marginalization for Black people. His mother, Lue Helen, who was a classmate of Coretta Scott King, was just as influential in encouraging him to stand up against police brutality and discrimination.</p>
<blockquote><p>“These are the men who made me proud and women who taught me to fight back,” he told <a href="https://variety.com/2023/film/news/matthew-knowles-memoir-film-tv-adpatation-beyonce-1235835341/#!" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Variety</a>.</p></blockquote>
<p>It is now expected that Howard Kazanjian, the producer of the original three Star Wars movies, will oversee the development stages.</p>
