Malcolm X

Personally, I have easily come to appreciate Malcolm X's willpower, dedication and his ability to grow as a human being. I never understood how much change he encountered throughout his short life. It only shows me how open-minded he was and how willing he was to except the truth. Being a Muslim myself, I am very proud to have had a leader such as El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz. You notice that I didn't say a leader …

…X for my presentation. Now I know more of a very important individual in our history. He also gave me much hope that people could change for the better. More people should learn about Malcolm's quest because it is bound to have an impact on anyone. Malcolm did not only have an impact on those of his time, but it seems he has an even bigger impact on those like me who came years later.
