Malcolm X Proposal
I am interested in writing about Malcolm's relationship with Reginald in comparison to his relationship with Elijah Muhammad because I want to figure out why when both Reginald and Elijah Muhammad committed adultery (at different times), Malcolm stood by Elijah Muhammad much longer than he did for his own blood brother Reginald. This is important because uncovering who Malcolm values most during his life and for what reason can help us understand more about him as a person. One way to consider this is that Malcolm was a devout follower of Elijah Muhammad, whereas Reginald was always the little brother who looked up to Malcolm. Watching his little brother making a mistake was more believable because he was young, but Malcolm put so much faith in Elijah Muhammad, and it's hard to watch your idols fall.
