A.

This story is about how Malcolm X was able to teach himself how to read in prison.  He spent his time in jail for robbery, and was able to use the dictionary to teach himself how to read.  He read about racism and learned of whites v.s. blacks.

B.

Feigned: pretended; sham; counterfeit

Glutted: to feed or fill to satiety; sate: to glut the appetite

Bestial: of, pertaining to, or having the form of a beast: the belief that a person could assume bestial form after death; the bestial signs of the zodiac

C.

Is reading a dictionary able to give better education then reading a regular novel?

Why did Malcolm X think a more violent way was the way to find peace?

Did Malcolm X have any other prior schooling?
