King's Dream
I selected Martin Luther King Jr., Why? Because I admire and appreciate the passion he held for equality and helping others. Martin Luther King Jr's vision made a massive impact in our world. I recall being introduced to King’s celebrated "I Have a Dream" speech, within my high school years; which in return, provided me with a better understanding of the impression he left concerning civil rights. King, held a dream in which race did not dictate the interaction between each other. The dream promotes equality for all mankind because he believed that we are all created equal. America, today is not parallel to King’s vision or any other place in the world, but there is some validity in saying that his vision influences us all in one way

    Martin Luther King Jr.: An Inspirational Hero

    Martin Luther King Jr. once said “ In the recesses of my heart, I am fundamentally, a clergyman, a Baptist preacher.” During a time of inequality and a time of need, Martin Luther King Jr. became a leader, a regional sign of hope, strength, and courage. People all around him looked to him as a leader, someone that would help change the way people looked at colored skin forever. King was not liked because he stood up and said that he didn’t like the way colored-skinned people were being treated, but was liked because he had enough courage to take a stand and become a leader who fought for what he thought was right in a peaceful and respectable way. Martin Luther King Jr. is an example of a courageous…

    My Mt Rushmore

    The four people I have selected have played an important role in American history and the history of the world. They have made many contributions to better people’s lives around the world. My first and foremost choice is President Barrack Obama, he had changed society in many ways. Becoming the first African American president was the biggest achievement of his life. He gave African Americans hope and a better look into the future. As an African American I feel like there a chance now that anyone. He has been elected for two terms as well as nominated for the Nobel peace prize twice. He has passed very important laws and currently working on the gun violence law. I think President Obama is doing a great job with Americas budget and getting things to normal. I think he is a great figure that should always be remembered by having him carved into Mount Rushmore. My second choice is Maya Angelou she is like a grandmother to my generation. She has made wonderful contributions to society, and not just in poetry. She has given African American women something to look up to. She is not only known as being a poet but also for her struggle and triumph of what she’s been through. She still is contributing to our society with her poetry that’s being read in schools all around the country. My third choice is Operah Winfery, she has contributed so much in today’s society. She has given money to low class, has reunited families, has helped schools college students, she’s helped out marriages and women lives all together. She is a prominent figure of the 21st century that will…
