The March on Washington takes center stage in the discussion of chapter 15 of The Autobiography of Malcolm X; however, class members are presented with an entirely different view of the march from the ones they have previously studied. Readers examine Haley's techniques to make Malcolm X's comments clear, convincing, and engaging.

Instructional Ideas
