1) Claim: Important events in Malcolm's life changed his perspectives of the white man.
2)Question: What made Malcolm change his perspective of the white man?
3)Trouble: Later on in the book, after Mecca, Malcolm believes that it wasn't the white man who were the problem but it was the racial barriers in America.
4)Status Quo: Malcolm has gone through a life filled with unfair treatment and nonacceptance from the white man and strongly believed that the white man was the devil.
5)Fine Tune It: If Malcolm has gone through a life filled with unfair treatment and nonacceptance from the white man and strongly believed that the white man was the devil, but later on in the book believes that it wasn't the white man who were the problem but it was the racial barriers in America, then what events in Malcolm's life changed his perspective of the white man.

1)Claim: The corruption of Elijah Muhammad must of had some sort of effect on Malcolm because of the adoration Malcolm had for him.
2)Question:Does Elijah Muhammad's corruption have an effect on Malcolm?
3)Trouble: Malcolm seems more confused than desperate despite loosing his new insight as well as his role model.
4)Status Quo: When something is cut from its life source or hope it becomes a wreck.
5)Fine Tune It: When something is cut from its source of hope it becomes a complete wreck, and yet Malcolm seems more confused than desperate despite loosing his new insight as well as his role model, then did Elijah Muhammad's corruption have an effect on Malcolm?

1)Claim: Malcolm seems to have kept his opinion about white people despite his trip to Mecca.
2)Question: Has Malcolm changed his opinion about white people after going to Mecca?
3)Trouble: Malcolm makes the quote "...while my primary concern would be to grab a few more crumbs from the groaning board of the two-faced whites whom they're begging to integrate," in a (breaking of the fourth wall...?) which would be after his trip to Mecca.
4)Status Quo: Malcolm seems to have changed his opinion about the white man during Mecca.
5)Fine Tune It: If Malcom seems to have changed his opinion about the white man during Mecca, but then makes the quote,"...while my primary concern would be to grab a few more crumbs from the groaning board of the two-faced whites whom they're begging to integrate," after Mecca, then has Malcolm really changed his view of the white man?
