April,16, 1963, MLK spoke, “Injustice somewhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” MLK took part in many marches to gain equality and freedom. He had taken part and led in one of the most memorable events in Civil Rights history. MLK’s background, his fight for justice, and the importance of remembering him and his efforts, is what has molded this nation today. During MLK’s childhood, he developed a gentle character from his parental role models and high academics leading him to an early…

Mani was the founder of the religion Manicheanism. The reason why he is even relevant in this book is because at the end of Gnosticism, Mani was the individual to take Gnosticism and make it into a religion. The religion itself taught that life is a dualist system in which all is black or white. Also, because of this dualism, none of the things that seemed opposite shall meet.

struggle knowing I have a genetic disorder; Turner Syndrome. Turner Syndrome, or TS, is a genetic, chromosomal disorder in which a female is born with only one X chromosome (the 23rd pair). This affects the development in women (the disease can only occur in women). The most common way a female can get TS is by monosomy, which means an X chromosome is completely…

This is where our decrease in social interaction took a huge decline because a new behavior made its way to the surface where students…

Autobiography of Malcolm X is one of the most influential pieces of literature we have available today. Being able to read about the events that shaped him into the well-known version of Malcolm X was amazing, to say the least. Growing up, Malcolm X experienced white supremacy in several different ways leading him to want to devote his entire career to fighting it. Experiencing white supremacy, as a black person is one thing, however, actively responding to it is another. Malcolm X acknowledges…

In “Learning to Read and Write” by Frederick Douglass and “Learning to Read” by Malcolm X, both writers display the idea of the importance of literacy as it contributes to personal development and social consciousness. Although the authors come from contrasting backgrounds they seem to find similarities in their opinion of personal empowerment with the ability and desire to rise in society through learning literature.

Malcolm X was somewhat of an extraordinary man. I found him to be very descriptive and honest in his auto biography, he mentions things such as his own prejudice and bias, and even describes himself as being somewhat self-conceited. He even proves at many points in the book that he himself is racist, being that he discriminates against white people from a lesser view point to avoid criticism. This auto biography greatly stresses how ethnic diversity was looked at negatively during this period of…
