Summary: Honduran Entrepeneur
What makes Nora Rodriguez a hero is that she helps Central American immigrants become mexican citizens and will do anything to help her clients. In the article "Honduran Entrepeneur helps Central American Immigrants gain Legal Status in Mexico" by Mayela Sanchez states that " The immigration office only gives applicants a list of required documents but doesn't advice them how to fulfill the requirments." The evidence shows that Nora helps Central American immigrants fill out there papers to fulfill all the requirements without the form telling them how to. I can relate this to another hero that stood up for what was right. His name is Cesar Chavez. He stood up for farmworkers who were working all day. He stood up for them and never stopped

    Sonia Sotomayor through her hard work and dedication has become a role model to follow for all Latinas like myself that are trying to achieve an education and in the long run have a great career. As we can see for Sotomayor, it did not come easy, but she made success a necessity not an option. I believe Sotomayor is living proof of what one can do once you set your mind to it, and what it means to stay true to your beliefs, which can result to history in the…

    Rosa Parks is a hero because not only was she determined, but also fearless when faced with trouble. As an older black woman in the 1950’s Rosa was highly ridiculed and punished for what she did. No matter what happened Rosa was fearless and determined to do the right thing. She knew what she wanted the future to look like and not even being put in jail could stop her. The definition of fearless is without fear, however Rosa was afraid, but she created her own definition of fearless because she wasn’t afraid to face her fears. In doing this, Rosa Parks became a spokesperson and a ray of hope for all prejudiced people. She single-handedly started the civil rights movement. She proved if you are determined enough, you can change the world.…

    Betty Friedan Stands as a hero, because she became a force for change, had integrity, and was a good strong leader. The text states “She directed campaigns to end sex-classified employment notices, for greater representations of women in government” (www.britannica.com). This shows one way that Betty Friedan’s force for change helped make her stand as a hero.

    I discovered that her story was very relatable, because I grew up hearing my parents stories about leaving their families at such young ages and moving across country for a fresh start in the States. At 14 years old, Diane Guerrero, was left utterly alone. She stated angrily, “When the authorities made the choice to detain my parents, they did not even bother to check that a young girl, a minor, was just without a family”(43). The immigration officers did not care about Diane, in fact, they never contacted her to find out if she had a house to stay in, now that she was homeless and parentless. Luckily, a few close family friends took her in, but she went bouncing from home to home for the next 4 years, hardly ever talking, let alone seeing her parents. She could have gone back to Colombia and let go of any and all opportunities, shockingly, she chose to stay here and take advantage of her citizenship. Hopeful, she said, “College gave me a shot at a future” (141). Diane was aware that college was her way to get a future and “maybe even bring my parents back” (145) I think, that’s a valid example of why people want to live in this country.…

In many Latin countries women are glamorized for looking as naturally beautiful as possible when presenting themselves. Try to imagine having an entire lifetime inspected through a magnifying glass. Though, I have never been one to conform to these societal expectations.…

    I found my self getting more and more interested and curious as I kept reading about her. She is such a great role model and the amount of strength she had was incredible. This is one of my favorite papers because I was actually interested in writing about my historical figure. I never realized what an important asset she was up until now. I think things now would be different if it wasn't for her. She showed strength and self-drive and never let the law or anyone get in the way of what was right and humane. There's a reason why Obama named her an American…
