Welcome back to a brand new series of the ASK podcast, which this week features the dulcet tones of our very own Mr Khan. As both English Teacher and Head of Year 10, you'd think he'd have his hands full, but he spared us a lunch time to talk all things Malcolm X. For some an inspiration, for others a figure of controversy, we really delve into the life and ideas of Malcolm X, so strap in and get listening. Thank you to our fabulous panellists: Harry W (Y11), Josh M (Y11) and Adi J (Y10) who ask perceptive, probing questions that really helped make this a fascinating episode.
As per usual, give us a follow on @JHGSEnglish and via the 'Jenni Summers' YouTube account, to ensure you get all of the latest updates.
House point questions (2 points for 2 correct answers): 1) Why did Malcolm want to be known as 'Malcolm X' rather than 'Malcolm Little'? 2) After his conversion to orthodox Islam, what did he change his name to? Send your entries to [email protected] or [email protected].
**1. Apologies for any sound issues - this was produced using a laptop, rather than being left in the capable hands of Tomas and the recording studio team.
2. Yes, we're releasing episode 2 first. Episodes 1 and 3 should be with you very soon - they'll be properly edited!**
