"Influential People"

"Influential People"



My First Choice of someone who has a big impact on my life would be my Mother , My mother is one main person i can call my hero ! she is always there whenever i need her , my mother has lead me through my biggest accomplishments yet in life so far. my mother has a very strong backbone which i say myself i get from her . 







My second choice would be my auntie Bernice, I choose my aunt because she along help me through so much , even though she is a call away ! Thats Is 12 hours a call away i should say huh , my aunt stays in Alabama  , which i go almosty every summer . My aunt has been a big influence on me every since i was a child her and my mom both play a role in my life . they have each push me to be in school and fight as hard as i can to get where they are or even higher than them . my Mother is A phlebotomist ,  a healthcare professional who is trained to draw blood from a patient in a safe and sanitary manner and my aunt is a manager in the LPN department in the hospital in her home town she is still an active duty soldier for the united states (army) which i plain to go after my degree.



my third person would be Malcolm X , the-activist and outspoken public voice of the Black Muslim faith, challenged the mainstream civil rights movement and the nonviolent pursuit of integration championed by Martin Luther King Jr.He urged followers to defend themselves against white aggression “by any means necessary.” Born Malcolm Little, he changed his last name to X to signify his rejection of his “slave” name. Charismatic and eloquent, Malcolm became an influential leader of the Nation of Islam, which combined Islam with black nationalism and sought to encourage and enfranchise disadvantaged young blacks searching for confidence in segregated America. After Malcolm X’s death in 1965, his bestselling book The Autobiography of Malcolm X popularized his ideas, particularly among black youth, and laid the foundation for the Black Power movement of the late 1960s and 1970s. He is also very influential because i know many people today who would say hey i am Muslim because of Malcolm . Malcolm is a man who made many blacks like myself understand why so many things happening today is happening he also was an eye opener to me .
