Malcom Vs Franklin-Missed Assignment

Many differences can be found between the two pieces of writing. The generational and cultural backgrounds of the writers is very evident. While most would think that would take cause for a person to identify with one or the other, it was found that both of the writings were relevant to life for an average person. While one man struggled with prison life, the other was busy forming his opinions and argument's that would shape our country. Of course the people of reference are Malcom X and Benjamin Franklin. Many times throughout the paper of Malcom X, he talks about his love of books and the knowledge gained from it. That is also a source of Franklin's paper as well. He speaks of only having gone to a few years of school before he was made to work for his family. In the case of either man, school only went as far as eighth grade! To think men that shaped our country have so little schooling is astonishing! It is unsure as to whether one should fear the educated or the uneducated man more. When so much can be achieved without the formal education that many think is necessary to become a success, what could have been achieved had these men received all the advantages of that education? In the instance of these men, it seems their tribulations taught them more than education ever could. The difference between the stories lie in the style of writing. Old English can sound outdated and make a paper often boring to read. While Malcom X has a style of writing that appeals to a larger portion of people. It is more modern and tells a story of overcome more obstacles. It is the story of Mr Franklin that requires more attention and imagination, especially in the matter of modern grammar and spelling. The stories of both men are nothing short of amazing. Any person that can go from that low to that high deserves to be immensely recognized. Overcoming adversity is what America was founded on and what continues to be its truest aspiration to other countries. Each of these papers exhibited that exactly on target. So it shows how from the 1700 through out all of our history America continues to do that.  Hopefully that will continue through out the entire future of our country.
