Unfortunately some people who think they're above others would never pick it up based on thier preconceived notions when it would change their outlook were they intellectually capable of finishing it.  The conclusion would greatly benefit people who think Muslims are 'savages'.  Sadly those people are too ignorant to even ingest information they incorrectly label as divergent to their pinhole worldview. 
I read it on my own one summer at college myself. Everybody seemed to be gone that week, and I just sat around and crushed it. The Spike Lee movie came out 4-5 years before that, so I kinda had the jist of it already. I still loved it. I remember I read Fidel Castro's autobiography right around the same time. Its called A Totally Free Man. It's a good read too. Much shorter though... very stream of consciousness at times.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.
