Let’s Begin…
Many
notable American historical figures are considered role models -- but
why? George Washington was devilishly smart,
and Abraham Lincoln was a brave leader, but have you heard of Sybil
Ludington or Beriah Green? Amy Bissetta expounds on the lessons of
character we can learn from these historical giants, whether you’ve
heard of them or not.
You just heard about many history figures that were able to accomplish great deeds because of their "virtues." Describe a historical figure not mentioned in the video who you feel possessed a positive virtue and explain how that virtue helped him/her accomplish a "good deed."
