Famous People

Historical Figures and Role Models



All countries, despite cultural and religious differences, have
historic figures and role models who represent their national values.
These people define their country’s culture and show the world their
nation’s best qualities. These figures may be politicians, or athletes, or
even authors and artists.

In India, parades and national holidays remember great leaders who showed the world the country’s best qualities. The world-famous Mahatma K. Gandhi advocated non-violence and fought for equality among the social classes.
Gandhi also repaired Hindu-Muslim relations in the country at a time of
great political and religious unrest. The great figure was unfortunately
assassinated. He had still managed to communicate what the modern India
was like to the world.







In the United States, for example, presidents like Abraham Lincoln and
John F. Kennedy are taught about in schools and remain some of the most
important people in creating and defining the U.S. The “Founding Fathers”,
who laid out the first real “law of the land” are big figures in American
history. Martin Luther King Jr., the famous Civil Rights Movement leader
in the U.S. has now become a national holiday. Most of these famous U.S.
citizens are only men, however. Women must continue to fight for their
recognition in being just as valid national role models.
