Audacious

Audacious. To be audacious means to be bold and daring. For example, during the civil rights movement with Martin Luther King Jr. was a time when you had to be audacious. He had to be very bold especially because he was strong man of color. He carried himself as if he was any other man with authority and respect. Think about it. Martin Luther King did all these protests and speeches against segregation. Most men in the South during that time got lynched all because they looked a white man in the face. Dr. King had to be extremely audacious to speak out against almost all whites publicly. He didn’t care about dying or being in jail if it was for the rights of his people. One day, I hope to be known as an audacious woman who is very successful and doesn’t take no for an answer. J - Tierra
