false 1022431 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg The Autobiography of Malcolm X limns an archetypal journey from ignorance and despair to knowledge and spiritual awakening. When Malcolm tells coauthor Alex Haley, "People don't realize how a man's whole life can be changed by one book," he voices the central belief underpinning every attempt to set down a personal story as an example for others. Although many believe his ethic was directly opposed to Martin Luther King Jr.'s during the civil rights struggle of the '60s, the two were not so different. Malcolm may have displayed a most un-Christian distaste for loving his enemies, but he understood with King that love of God and love of self are the necessary first steps on the road to freedom. --Wendy Smith ]]> 92057 36 47400 book 1965 The Autobiography of Malcolm X: As Told to Alex Haley total:9914|5:5070|4:3299|3:1283|2:210|1:40| 9914 42904 12621 911 17435 4.32 10339 937 1979325 132266 92057 0345350685 9780345350688 779 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171240741m/92057.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/92057.The_Autobiography_of_Malcolm_X_As_Told_to_Alex_Haley 4.32 8837 "Extraordinary.
