For example, Malala was willing to stand up against injustice, and risked her own life, when she advocated for girls education

I think that she showed extreme perservereance in the face adversity. Despite a difficult recovery progress from her assassination attempt  she continued to pursue her own education and recently graduated from Oxford University in the United Kingdom

She also showed bravery, not only in continuing to advocate for girl's education, but also in delivering a internationally televised speech to the United Nations when she was just 16. That brings to mind another trait, she is a great communicator ]]> 2021-03-03 12:58:29 UTC https://padlet.com/lauranoboa2018/1k9wwux2ssxk6r8k/wish/1263451038 smuhammad251 https://padlet.com/lauranoboa2018/1k9wwux2ssxk6r8k/wish/1270739819 We think she is a good female leader because she is a great public speaker. She has written several inspiring books people have connected with. She was the first Black firstlady in the white house. She is independent and does not rely on her husbands accomplishments. She has many charity causes thats she advocates for.

Greta showed bravery with what she said boldly to world leaders. She fights for the world at such a young age. She took a journey across the ocean instead of a plane on a small sail boat. She also is able to use what she can really well, such as social media. These are all examples of how resourceful, independent and intelligent she is.  ]]> 2021-03-04 18:53:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lauranoboa2018/1k9wwux2ssxk6r8k/wish/1270749679 fkhuonghuu251 https://padlet.com/lauranoboa2018/1k9wwux2ssxk6r8k/wish/1270752194 We chose Kamala Harris because she is an American politician and attorney who is serving as the vice president of the United States. She is the first female vice president, the highest ranking official in US history, and the first African American and first Asian American vice president. As a senator, she advocated for healthcare reform, a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, the DREAM Act, a ban on assault weapons, and progressive tax reform. She is very hardworking and willing to do what she thinks is best for America.]]> 2021-03-04 18:53:35 UTC https://padlet.com/lauranoboa2018/1k9wwux2ssxk6r8k/wish/1270752194 edesai251 https://padlet.com/lauranoboa2018/1k9wwux2ssxk6r8k/wish/1270755152 We think RBG was a great leader because she fought for what she believed was right no matter what others told her to do. She had  to be a really strong speaker throughout her career because in a job typically done by men, her male counterparts often attempted to disrespect her, undermine her authority, and not take her seriously. In the 1970s, she became the director of the Women's Rights Project and has always fought really hard for women when no one else would. She also was able to work much harder than most people have to do to get to where she was and made sure that her husband's needs weren't put before hers.

She advocates for those she represents. She is very articulate in her beliefs and does what she thinks is right always. She stands up for marginalized communities. She voices her opinions and the opinions of those she represents even when she doesn't have support. She is also very well-spoken. ]]> 2021-03-04 18:56:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lauranoboa2018/1k9wwux2ssxk6r8k/wish/1270766097 epark254 https://padlet.com/lauranoboa2018/1k9wwux2ssxk6r8k/wish/1270775397 She was a very influential figure in women's suffrage and has a lot of traits you would expect from a great leader. Being part of a suffrage movement, she had to have a lot of perseverance and bravery to even go against the established norm, and had to be very good at organizing events.]]> 2021-03-04 18:58:01 UTC https://padlet.com/lauranoboa2018/1k9wwux2ssxk6r8k/wish/1270775397
