Barbara Frietchie stood up the United States and the American Flag. “Shoot, if you must this old grey head, But spare you country’s flag,” she said, was a line from the poem that showed her bravery.

On the other hand, Malala stood up for women’s right and education in her country, Pakistan. In the…

    Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. Dubois had similar goals for African Americans: education, citizenship, equal rights, and better lives.

    Frederick Douglass was a slave who had a soul set on fire by a local abolitionist paper and never missed a chance to speak up after reading it. For these reasons he lead the fight to free his brethren from the chains that held them down or as he put it “From that time until now, I have been engaged in pleading the cause of my brethren—with what success, and with what devotion, I leave those acquainted with my labors to decide.” Meaning that whatever it took to gain freedom that is what Frederick would do and no matter how long the fight would take he would forever devote himself to this cause. Yet another devoted leader was Malala Yousafzai for never giving up on her fight against the Taliban. According to Malala her reason for doing so was for those without a voice as the following quote goes “I rise up- not so that I can shout, but so that those without a voice can be heard.” Therefore, Malala always spoke up against the Taliban, even when they put a price on her head for doing so. Malala and Frederick were visions of how not being quiet, silent, and a devoted follower gets no one anything but fear in their lives. However, they both similarly demonstrated that being devoted helped them accomplish their visions of equality and that when people set their minds to something anything is…
