Can some one please explain to me what a Character analysis essay is?
Alborosie

Character analysis is when you evaluate a character's traits, their role in the story, and the conflicts they experience.

When analyzing, you will want to think critically, ask questions, and draw conclusions about the character by looking at those three areas.

Malcolmx:How does the state Welfare humiliate and dehumanize the
yan [13]

Answer:

The Welfare people made constant visits to the family home and look at them as if they are inferior to them. They also present Mrs. Little of being insane and admitted to a psychiatric hospital.

Explanation:

"The Autobiography of Malcolm X" by Malcolm X and Alex Haley was a book that details the life of Malcolm Little from his childhood till his later years. The book became one of the most read and the most sought non-fictional book of all times.

Even though it was a product of Haley's interview with Malcolm, the book was directly addressed to the readers making it easily relatable to them. In chapter I of the book, Malcolm mentions one instance when the State Welfare people used to visit their home. He remembered how they looked at them "<em>in a way that had about it the feeling-at least  for me-that we were not people. In their eyesight we were just _things_, that was all</em>". He also stated "<em>acted as if they owned us, as if we were their  private property</em>."

After their mother, he became the target of the Welfare people due to his stealing. They also reported to the government that their mother Mrs. Little "<em>was losing their mind</em>". All of these acts by the Welfare people made their life miserable.

The State does not continue to do so as most of the Welfare organisations/ people are more sympathetic to the cause of the welfare of the people.
