CHAPTER 10
The character of Bimbi, perhaps could it be, the very one who acted as the catalyst towards Malcolm X's future success as an orator? Actually, it's pretty blunt, and interesting how fascinated Malcolm becomes with Bimbi. This is attriubted to both Malcolm himself being a young man lost in his ways, and Bimbi being a man of extreme confidence and charisma that he displayed himself as a man that commanded attention and people sought help from
"What fascinated me with him most of all was that he was the first man I had ever seen command total respect . . . with his words."
It is at this point that 'words' will become symbols and motifs throughout the remainder of the book and seem like a source of healing. (Yay reading! Books! Education!)
