When I started reading the first chapter, I had first tried to put myself in Malcolm It's actually to make sure I really feel what he felt. Since it is the first part of this book, it consists of the background of Malcolm and his family. It's really sad and unfair when I read that white Americans are very racist. For me, since they are all citizens of the same country, racism can only create chaos. It is better to simply accept the differences and live in harmony. To me, from what I see, Malcolm is confused. He wants to be with white people, but at the same time feels that they don't really accept him. There are some limitations for black people in America. This can be seen when teachers make him feel uncomfortable. They gave him the chance to be class president, but humiliated him by saying he should be a carpenter. The discomfort leads him to stay at his sister's house. In fact at that time, Malcolm thought he himself was oppressed by whites. He didn't really understand that it was a race issue. As I continued to read the book, I discovered that Malcolm tries to be in society. He wants others to accept him. It's normal for humans to want to be included. We all want to be accepted by others. This is why Malcolm in one part of his life wants to prove that he is just like other white men as he mated with a white woman even though he didn't love her. This book also shows me that the influence of friends is very strong. It makes him try to be like other black Americans who imitate whites. You can also see when he did the conk. It is a very clear example that he also wants to be like white. You can also see...... in the center of the sheet...... verses: The verse of Surah Al-Hujurat also refers to this story, in which Malcolm met the white man in Mecca. The white man is not like other white people in America. I can feel the bond of Islam binding them. In conclusion, I find that this story can really motivate and inspire us. Now I understand that it is not only motivational books that motivate us, but also one's own autobiography. All the good part of his life chapters we should take as a model to follow and the negative part, we should take as a lesson. Whatever bad thing we have done will affect us in the future. There is no other person who will regret our past mistakes and accept us ourselves. However, every person learns from mistakes, whether their own or those of others. The most important thing is that we realize the mistakes and don't repeat them again.
