Dr. Martin Luther King inspires me
to do great things someday.
He fought for equal rights.
I want to be like him because
he wasn't scared to speak for
peace. I will try to stop violence
and drugs.
That's why he's my hero.
 By Lamar Reed.

My hero is my mother
she inspires me to do
great things someday.
She wants me to be
different from her,
because she works
two jobs and when she was a young
girl she said that she wouldn't have
to work two jobs. She said she wouldn't
have to because she thought life would
be easy. I would try to be like her by
doing as she says by not working two jobs.
She is my hero because she put me in a
great school. She wouldn't give up on her
children, and because she is a hard worker,
and a loving mother.

Sr. Domicele. That's why they're my heroes.

My mother and father.
They tell me to do good
in school. Also when I'm
hurt or if I have a bruise
my mother or father gives
me my medicine cause I
have a blood disorder
called hemophelia. So
I need a needle when
I get hurt. When I
grow up I have to
give myself a needle.
When I get hurt
I know how to give
myself medicine.

MY HERO IS HARRIET TUBMAN.
SHE INSPIRES ME TO DO COURAGEOUS
THINGS ONE DAY. HARRIET TUBMAN
HELPED SLAVES IN THE UNDERGROUND
RAILROAD TO FREEDOM. SHE MIGHT HAVE
BEEN SCARED BUT SHE STILL STOOD UP
FOR WHAT SHE KNEW WAS RIGHT.
WHEN THEY BEAT HER FOR RUNNING AWAY
SHE KNEW THAT IT WAS POSSIBLE FOR HERSELF
TO GET CAUGHT AGAIN, BUT SHE RAN ANYWAY.
SHE COULD HAVE BEEN A SLAVE ALL HER LIFE,
BUT SHE STILL LEFT. I WANT TO HAVE THE
COURAGE SHE HAD AND NOT BE A FOLLOWER
BUT A LEADER. I WANT THE COURAGE THAT HARRIET
TUBMAN HAD AND LEAD OUR COUNTRY TO FREEDOM.
 THAT'S WHY HARRIET TUBMAN'S MY HERO.
