I think that his statement is eerily accurate when you break it apart and dive into the crazy parallel lives that these two men led. “The chilling truth is that his story could have been mine.” The other Wes Moore grew up in practically the same neighborhood as the author Wes Moore… yet their lives ended up so different.

I enjoyed the simple fact that Mike Moore offered a question and answer which allowed audience members to ask him questions.

The Characteristics of an Archetypal Tragic Hero 1. Noble stature Tragedy involves the “fall” of a tragic hero. One theory suggests that the tragic hero must have a desirable/higher/lofty position to fall on‚ or else there is no tragedy (just pathos). Another explanation of this characteristic is that tragedies involving people of stature affect the lives of others. For example‚ in the case of a king‚ the tragedy would not only involve the individual and his family‚ but it would involve the whole
