Malcolm X was such a wonderful speaker: witty, articulate, honest, and a huge loss. I have the Norton anthology of African-American literature, which includes a cd on which there is a speech of Malcolm's. I feel moved and inspired every time I listen to that. I don't suppose you have either of Professor George Fraser's plays, do you? (He is the Director of the Space Research Centre, Dept of Physics & Astronomy, University of Leicester, as well as playwright and short story writer.) One was about the atom bomb (broadcast somewhere around the 50th anniversary of the first bomb, so that must have been 1995?); the other took the Nobel prizewinner, Chandrasekhar, as its subject. I used to have links to the plays but lost them when I changed computers one time.
