I think he tried very hard to fix alot of things. He was fighting for equals and their own rights. Also he tried to set better schools for next generlations. I think he was very clear man because he was thinking deeply and planed out. I am not sure if i would fight like him during that period. When i was researching him, i noticed that he was very stong man and i learned to be stong like him. His father was white man but he was still stood up for the community against to white people. I think i should not scared to spoke out my own opinion to the world like him. I would try to fight if soemthing is wrong and set up for the future.
