In our world, we have legends of all kinds. Wether they were male of female, black or white. Many of these legends brought up this great country America and molded it to shine bravery, diversity, and hope. Although we have so many great legends, not all lived to see his or her mark like Abraham Lincoln never got to see the result of slavery ending. Take Martin Luther King Jr as another example. He died before his dream came true. Yet this didn't stop Abraham or Martin to do what was right. What makes a legend a legend anyway? In today's world we see legends as movie stars, or singers forgetting what the true meaning of making someone a legend was. Muhammad was one of a kind. Not just because of his talent, but the heart he had was genuine. He did not only fight for himself, but for our country therefore, making him a legend. It doesn't take a big brawny man to be a legend however. Look at our lanky Abraham Lincoln, or our black female, Rosa Parks. What truly makes someone a legend is his or her heart and courage; something we all can possess and become legends of our own time.
