Everyone
has different stories, but people’s stories can also have some similarities
with others. Malcolm X, Benjamin Franklin, and Mike Rose’s essays are all
different from each other, but they also have one thing in common. All of their
stories are narratives.
Malcolm X’s
narrative is different from Benjamin Franklin and Mike Rose’s because he is
telling the readers how he learned how to read. He told us how he learned by
copying and studying the dictionary while he was in prison. He then told what
kinds of stories he read and what he learned about the blacks being left out of
history books and the horrible things about slavery. Benjamin Franklin’s story is different from Malcolm X and Mike Rose’s because of the way people spoke back during his time. The language he uses is different from the language Malcolm X and Mike Rose used in their stories. The style of speaking they used is more of like how we speak today.
Lastly, Mike Rose’s story is different from Malcolm X and Benjamin Franklin’s because he actually describes people. He goes into a little bit of detail about most people he mentions. He describes what some of the guys look like so the reader can visualize what the guys are like.
