6/4/14

Read to halfway through Malcolm X, then summarized and skipped forward to assassination.  Unfortunate because you get his worst side and not the later doubts and changes, but still good info and the book is simply too time-consuming to read in detail,  will hope for individual reading in later years.

Watch biography short on Malcolm X.  Read biographies and view pictures.
