Leadership: Nelson Mandela.
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp) Although our theme for this essay is "Leadership in the Making, " I really wanted to do this essay on Nelson Mandela, because he is such a person of peace. When he was born in 1918, Medela's father named him Rolihlahla by his father. This name technically means"pulling the branch of a tree" but colloquially means "troublemaker." For his "trouble" and speaking of Africans owning their own land he was imprisoned for over 20 years. This man is inspiring! Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Malcolm X And Martin Luther King: Differing Approach
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Comparing the approach to racial issues between Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr. requires the student to delve into various elements of each man's past, such as differing regional origins, in order to gain a significantly better understanding as to why – while enlightening the world on the same subject matter – came away doing so in such divergent ways. Alex Haley illustrates these differences in The Autobiography of Malcolm X; while penned by Haley -- an American writer who depicts the struggles of American blacks -- it is actually a compilation of many interviews that were conducted shortly before Malcolm's death. It was not known at the time of publication, however, that the autobiography would create such a furor over its release; in fact, the book soon became recognized as a classic of black American autobiography.
