Summary: Malcolm X.
Review: Malcolm X: By Any Means Necessary was about Malcolm X and his struggle to end racism in the United States. Malcolm X was born with the name Malcolm little. Growing up was a hard time for Malcolm, his father was killed when Malcolm was very young, and after that point his family never had enough money. He went to live with his sister when he was a teenager, and after that became a street hustler. He was arrested and was sentenced to ten years in prison; it was there that he learned about the teachings of Islam. When he was released from prison, he began attending meetings of the Nation of Islam, led by Elijah Muhammad. He later helped the Nation of Islam to start many new temples, one of which he was the leader. He began to disagree with Elijah Muhammad on some things. Later he split from the Nation of Islam, and made a pilgrimage to the city of Mecca. After he returned to the United States, he formed a new group called Afro-American Unity. He then began working with groups of all races to achieve equality for African-Americans....I thought that this was a great book, and really enjoyed reading it; it is one of the most interesting books that I have read. I recommend it to anybody who will take the time to read it.

Summary: My idol, my admirer, my savior... Malcom X
Review: Malcom X, as we know is a well known activist throughout the world. However, while reading "By any means necessary", I have come across a different Malcom X, infact the first Malocm X that I have come across with was Malcom Little.This was Malcom as a little boy, a Malcom who worked really hard in school to achive his goal to become a lawyer. But this dream of his, would only be dream because Malcom was black.Malcom's intelligence was over looked just because he was not white.
The second Malcom was a street hustler/gambler named:Detroit Red. He was the lady's man of both races:black and white.Malcom then started to use what he learnt in school in the streets to make profits. However this job did not last long because Malcom was sent to prison year 1946.This is when the third Malcom came along, in prison Malcom learnt the Islamic ways of life.When Malcom was released from prison, he then replaced Little(his given name, with X ).- X stands for the unknown being our names was lost on the slaveship.
Malcom X is a remarkable man, his name has been spoken within the slum of cities and also their capitals. While reading this book I have realised that Malcom X is my idol, my admirer, and my savior...Malcom X.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A new look
Review: Myers takes a new look at the Malcom X story with a special light on his childhood. The book is well organized with a blueprint of the structures that made up his life.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: nice book
Review: The Autobiography of Malcolm X is a riveting novel. It goes in depth with the man who led the fight against segregation. From an ex-con to a leader to a minister and preacher.From " Detroit Red " to El Hajj Mohammed in his later life. He helped the Nation of Islam grow from a couple of hundred people to a couple of thousand. He split from the Nation of Islam and formed his own organization after he found out some shameful information about the very religious Elijah Mohammed, the founder of the Nation of Islam.He was assinated in a conference by some Nation of Islam members

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Malcolm X
Review: This is a book about Malcolm X and what he has accomplished in his life. This book tells how he inherited the name Malcolm X. It tells about all his encounters with other famous leaders including Martin Luther King JR., Elijah Muhammad, and others. This book tells about his family, how he became an Islam ruler, and what he did to try to make the world a better place. I recommend this book to any readers interested in the life of Malcolm X or readers that are just interested in a good biography.
