Questions about Malcolm X’s “Learning to Read” -Response

Can you relate to the text? Why or why not?:

I can relate to the text because there are just some subjects that I am more interested in that others.

Do you think that most people today see/understand the ability to read the same way that Malcolm X describes?:

I highly doubt that people would see / understand the ability to read the same way that Malcolm X describes. Due to the advances in technology, its become easier for people to just watch / listen to things just as much as reading is.
