Have you ever wondered if a famous person's characteristics were revealed publicly? People with courageous minds are displayed publicly in many ways; in newspapers, books and films. Courage is also shown in very distant times up to the most modern times. During the 1st century BC, when Spartacus lived. Spartacus was taken prisoner and sold as a gladiator. Spartacus escaped captivity and led a rebellion containing many other prisoners. This brave warrior, of course, had to find some courage to rebel against an entire empire that held him captive in prison. When you travel through the timeline to when Marcus Junius Brutus lived, you see an event involving a murder. Brutus decided that the fate of the empire he lived in should not be left in, what he thought were, the "terrible" hands of King Julius Caesar. Although Caesar was not always a bad person in Brutus' eyes, Caesar, at one point, was like a father to him. But their relationship grew very distant and things changed between Brutus and Caesar. Brutus had to gather courage and kill Caesar. Brutus' actions were not accepted by all people. but he could no longer turn back once his mission was over. Moving on to a later time, to the year 1955, when another act of rebellion was committed. Rosa Parks had difficult days, when blacks had less authority than whites. Springing into action, Rosa Parks denied the bus driver's order to move to the back of the bus, forcing the driver to retrieve a police officer. Rosa Parks' courage was demonstrated when she didn't move from where she stood, she stood still. Before Rosa Parks' trial, a large group of people created a boycott, or protest, for Rosa, threatening that if Rosa did not return safely, there... in the middle of the paper... as in many ways .
