Incredible, just simply incredible. Read it to give yourself an insight into the 1960s and one of its most prominent figures whose life and politics still affects America today.
Malcolm X was undoubtedly one of the most fascinating minds I know of. I truly wish he had been wrong about not living to see this book published. I would love to know what he thinks of the current state of the world.
An excellent text to teach for Reading 098 (or any course, for that matter). Malcolm X had a gift for being eloquent as well as conversation-savvy--a gift I will probably never have.
