Ok so I have this project in my English class where we have to choose a "powerful person" and read a biography on them.

 

Our teacher said not to take the definition of "powerful" too literally, so you can really interpret in any way. Does anyone have any suggestions on who I could pick?

Thanks!:)

Well it might mean someone who has influenced many people either for wrong or right reasons... that's my interpretation :confused:

Think of a general topic you have interest in and then try to narrow it down.

 

For example I always have been interested in the halocaust. So I would probs pick oskar schindler.

 

But there is alot of powerful people.

 

When I think of poweful I think of someone who made a change, either good or bad.

 

schindler, che guervara, hitler, the blackpanther party(dont know leaders name), rosa parks, nelson mandela.etcetcetc.

 

Im sure you will think of someone!

this may help.

 

But.. even a teacher of yours could be poweful, it all depnds on how you interpret the word.
