The Lives, Speeches and Writings of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 12 page paper on the lives, accomplishments and writings of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X were both visionaries in the way the dedicated their lives and writings to the pursuit of equality for African Americans. Their methods are perceived as slightly different however as King is associated with his pacifist approach to the fight for freedom and equality whereas Malcolm X is more often remembered for his somewhat more radical and active approach. Both men were born into the Baptist religion and their fathers were both preachers in the Church. King’s father, Martin Luther King Sr., believed that strict morals, integrity and the cooperation with the whites would bring about the eventual equality of African Americans which was reflected a great deal in his son’s mission. Malcolm X’s father, Earl Little, was a much more radical speaker in the civil movement which led to his eventual death by white supremacists. Malcolm X later converted to the Muslim religion which he felt better represented his beliefs. Despite their different backgrounds, both King and Malcolm X eventually gave their own lives to the cause of equality and freedom they so deeply believed in and their writings and actions are still used in the fight for African Americans and the equality of all races of men today.

The Question of Identity of Olaudah Equiano in “The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano” (1789)
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing “The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano or Gustavus Vassa the African” and the inconsistent details within the narrative which make the reader question the identity of the author. “The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano or Gustavus Vassa the African” was written in English in 1789 and tells of Equiano’s life as a slave. Originally born in Benen, he was enslaved and suffered terribly but later managed to acquire enough learning and independence to become a major influence in advocating the end of the slave trade in Europe with the popularity of his narrative. Within the narrative however, there are several aspects and inconsistencies which bring into question the identity of its author. The narrative is extremely well narrated and written which leads to the authenticity of its narrator in regards to his educational background. The narrative also changes a great deal throughout in regards to formality of speech, first-person third-person shifts and his surprising reactions to others slaves in addition to be occasionally afforded liberty in his movements despite being a slave. Another possibility in regards to the narrative would be that while Equiano may have narrated it, it was written and published in England by someone who may have had a hand in its extensive editing to make it more acceptable within the English publishing market.
