Malcom X

Malcom X's "Learning To Read" was surprisingly inspiring for my assignment. Out of all of the models i have read, his writing was inspiring simply because he was writing about being inspired. He started out not being able to read hardly anything, and taught himself to read and write, he is explaining a moment and experience that has changed his entire life. The other two models provide good examples, but his writing gives me ideas of what to write about in my own paper, about something that has truly made a difference in my life or changed me in some way. "How to Live Google Free" and "How to Program Computers" both wrote about how they taught themselves something but not something so powerful. Malcom really wrote about the most important opportunity in his life. I plan to write about something equally as important to me in my paper.
