Abstract:
Taking its cue from recent scholarly work on the concept of time in African American literature, this essay argues that, while both James Baldwin and Malcolm X refuse gradualism and insist on “the now” as the moment of civil rights’ fulfillment, Baldwin also remains troubled by the narrowness assumed by a life, politics, or ethics limited to the present moment. In his engagement with Malcolm’s life and legacy—most notably in One Day, When I Was Lost, his screen adaptation of Malcolm’s autobiography—he works toward a temporal mode that would be both punctual and expansive. What he proposes as the operative time of chronoethics is an “untimely now”: he seeks to replace Malcolm’s unyielding punctuality with a different nowness, one that rejects both calls for “patience,” endemic to any politics that rests on the Enlightenment notion of “perfectibility,” and the breathless urgency that prevents the subject from seeing anything beyond the oppressive system he wants overthrown. Both thinkers find the promise of such untimeliness in their sojourns beyond the United States.

Abstract:
This paper demonstrates how a literary text can be approached through a linguistic framework to enhance one’s reading and interpretation of it. It aims at examining the power of The Autobiography of Malcolm X: As Told to Alex Haley by analyzing the narrator’s description of his early speeches. I draw upon the appraisal framework, and I focus on Malcolm’s utilization of affect, judgment, and appreciation in a number of his speeches that he reported in the book. In those speeches, Malcolm adopts resources from the appraisal framework to align his audience with his position. His performance of affective stance to construct the entire problem of race in America contributed to the success of his book for more than 50 years since its publication.

Abstract:
Spike Lee's 1992 film, ''Malcolm X," is the most recent evidence ofthe increased popularity of Malcolm X (El Haj Malik El Shabazz). Thefilm, based on a screenplay by James Baldwin and Arnold Perl, sparkedcontroversy over "X" memorabilia and also a debate over the appropriateinterpretation of Malcolm X's legacy. For example, black nationalistAmiri Baraka opposed Lee's portrayal and criticized the film as an attemptto "make middle class Negroes sleep easier." Yet when the currentcontroversy and debate end, the Islamic aspects will remain, as before,the most significant and least recognized elements of Malcolm X'slegacy. This paper briefly examines this phenomenon in order to offer amore accurate and meaningful analysis of the significance of Malcolm X.Although Alex Haley's Autobiography of Malcolm X climbed to theNew York Times' best-seller list in 1992, popular media accounts, suchas Lee's film, have stimulated even greater social interest. As one writernotes, "if many blacks did not listen when he was alive, young blacks arelistening now." It is also interesting to note how "Malcolm X's appealhas crossed racial barriets in a way that would have been unthinkableduring his life." Nevertheless, the emergent popularity of Malcolm X inthe 1990s is a direct result of the lingering presence of racism and of hisown martydom in the struggle against it.Most mainstream analyses associate Malcolm X's message with vielence and hatred of white America. For example, his oft-quoted phrase,"by any means necessary," and his advocacy of martial arts proficiencyand rifle club formation for defenseless black victims of racial violence ...

Abstract:
This paper aims to analyze the influence of systemic racism on quarter-life crisis, experienced by Malcolm X, as seen in The Autobiography of Malcolm X (As Told to Alex Haley). Its emphasis is to find the relation between racial segregation in American society and its influence on quarter-life crisis, which is a psychological crisis of uncertainty, self-insecurity and identity confusion, occurs during emerging adulthood. Therefore, by applying a qualitative method, this research is under Post-Nationalist American Studies and psychosocial approach as an integrated paradigm which accommodates the inter-disciplinary aspects of �self and society�. The analysis showed that racial segregation, in the field of education and job occupation, is a form of systemic racism which influences Malcolm X�s mental wellness as an emerging adult African-American. He experiences Robinson�s phases of quarter-life crisis which are locked in, separation/time-out, exploration and rebuilding. In fact, racial segregation in this narrative works as �a function of blocked opportunities� which disallows young African-Americans to develop their own competencies and to achieve their �American Dream�. However, in the development of his quarter-life crisis, Malcolm X managed to rebuild his new long-term commitment contributing to the reconstruction of his adult identity as an African-American Muslim activist.

Abstract:
This article combines interview data from a group of boys of color at an urban single-sex school and content analysis of The Autobiography of Malcolm X and Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone to demonstrate the complexities of readers’ responses to literature. Textual relevance, or the ability to construct personal meaning from literature, emerged in two principal forms: (a) empathetic textual relevance (a mirror approach) and (b) sympathetic textual relevance (a window approach). In addition, textual relevance took shape in forms beyond mirrors or windows. In building upon theories of intersectionality and reader response, I argue that acknowledging the multi-dimensionality of readers’ identities and their meaning-making processes can pave the way for youth empowerment. As such, this work aims to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of students’ experiences as readers and to enhance literacy practices designed to promote equity.

Abstract:
With some exaggeration, one could claim that these three biographies, despite their disparate subjects—a seventeenth-century aristocratic lady of the Mughal court, an eighteenth-century French adventurer, and a twentieth-century Muslim intellectual and political figure—all tell the same story. In each case, a figure is born (as it happens, outside the Indian subcontinent) in relatively humble circumstances and emerges as a singular figure in some combination of the political, economic, intellectual life of the day. Each account proceeds chronologically, with the life presented as an unfolding, linear story, the fruit of “developments” and “influences,” in which the protagonist independently takes action. These accounts fit, in short, the genre of biography or autobiography known to us Americans from Benjamin Franklin to Malcolm X, of rags to riches—and, typically, lessons to impart (Ohmann 1970). Each is an example of the canonical form of male biography and autobiography that emerged in Europe from the eighteenth century.

Abstract:
Malcolm X’s life, like his death in 1965, was much documented and observed. Having left an abundance of photographic and filmic images, the material that would become the posthumous The Autobiography of Malcolm X (1965), and a number of interviews and recorded speeches, Malcolm X ensured his own cultural afterlife. He also inadvertently guaranteed that ‘we will never have access to an unmediated Malcolm.’ John Edgar Wideman has described the subsequent contestation of his meaning and legacy as ‘the bickering over the corpse of a dead man – who gets the head, the heart, the eyes, the penis, the gold teeth’. Other critics have lamented the cost in historical accuracy of the objectification of Malcolm X, invoking ‘the Malcolm that has often been lost in hero worship’ and the images of Malcolm X ‘all smoothed flat and stylized, like the holy men burning coolly in a Byzantine icon’. This thesis proposes to be the first systematic examination of the iconography of Malcolm X and its attendant narratives. Visual artists have explored Malcolm’s significations within folk and popular contexts. In journalism, critical studies, biographies, plays, screenplays, novels, memoirs, poems, and songs, Malcolm’s interpreters have demonstrated his perpetual incompleteness. This thesis considers the proliferation of images and narratives that constitute the many different Malcolms available for consumption. It is not only African American culture in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries that has been refracted through Malcolm X. His representation also speaks to the evolving relationship of written to visual culture since the mid-twentieth century and, indeed, of the interactions of religious, radical, and literary discourses with popular culture. As such, a consideration of the shifting iconography of Malcolm X opens a door on to many of the most contested issues of our times.

Abstract:
Comprendre malcolm x est une etude de l'homme et de ses idees fondee sur les differentes "interpretations" qui sont l'autobiographie de malcolm x ecrite en collaboration avec alex haley, les biographies, les anthologies de ses discours et le film de spike lee sorti en 1992. Cette etude, qui se presente en quatre parties, tente de "comprendre" qui etait malcolm x (1925-1965) et pourquoi un homme tel que lui, souvent decrie de son vivant et eclipse par la presence du pasteur martin luther king, l'embleme du mouvement des droits civiques alors a son apogee, fut l'objet d'un si grand engouement dans les annees quatre-vingt dix, surtout chez la jeune generation d'africains-americains. De la premiere partie consacree a l'examen de l'autobiographie de malcolm x et du role d'alex haley dans la production du texte jusqu'a la derniere partie abordant le theme du "culte du heros", en passant par l'etude biographique et l'analyse de la pensee politique du leader noir, la presente these vise a combattre les idees recues qui deforment l'image de malcolm x. Il est eleve par les uns au statut de heros sans reproche et abaisse par les autres a celui de raciste-extremiste prechant la violence et les idees les plus sectaires. La vie de malcolm x a ete, pour reprendre ses propres expressions, "une chronologie de changements". Il faut donc en tenir compte et evaluer ses idees et ses prises de position aussi par rapport a ces "transformations" qui ont jalonne son parcours. Tout en restant fidele a sa philosophie politique, le nationalisme noir, qui preconisait en particulier l'autodefense et l'autodetermination, malcolm, vers la fin de sa vie, pronait des idees de plus en plus progressistes
Understanding malcolm x is a study of the man and his ideas, based on different "interpretations" including the autobiography of malcolm x as told to alex haley, his biographies, the anthologies of his speeches and the spike lee film released in 1992. This four-part study is an attempt at "understanding" who malcolm x was and why he became the object of such an interest in the nineties, especially among young african-americans, while he was often discredited during his life time and was overshadowed by martin luther king's presence in the forefront of the civils rights movement, then at its height. From the first part examining the autobiography of malcolm x and alex haley's role in the production of the text to the last part dealing with "hero-worship" and media "hype", from the biographical study to the analysis of his political thoughts, this dissertation aims at fighting against preconceived ideas that distort malcolm's image. To some he is a flawless hero and to others he is a racist-extremist preaching violence and the most sectarian ideas. Malcolm's life was, to paraphrase him, "a chronology of changes". One must then keep that in mind and assess his ideas and stands also according to those "changes" that punctuated his career. While remaining faithful to his philosophy of black nationalism that advocated, among other things, the right to self-defense and black self-determination, malcolm, near the end of his life, moved towards more progressive ideas
