EWRT1A-63: Malcolm X and Richard Rodriguez readings

Since the preview of Rereading America seventh edition is no longer available through Google Book Search, let me give you links for the next few readings.

• Malcolm X "Learning To Read." You can download a Word doc of the piece here. You can also read it on-line here. On this page, it's been titled "A Homemade Education," but it's the same reading. It's a part from Malcolm X's autobiography so editors give the piece whatever title they want to. Also for the four of you who were in my EWRT 211 class, this is a longer version than the one we read last quarter.
• Richard Rodriguez "The Achievement of Desire." Access to this essay has been removed, due to the request of Richard Rodriguez.
  

Keep track of where you are getting these essays from. This will be important when you compile a works cited list for your papers. We will start to go over MLA works cited on Thursday.
