Cesar Chavez is extraordinary hard working man who shows great traits for a leader in change. He has inspired millions of Americans and had sacrifice his life for improving working conditions for farmers, which shows great braviness. To this day, he still remains in farmers hearts from his great leadership

In terms of political strategies. the vision of bolivar always involved people as part of the nation. Simon Bolivar was a stronger general. Was unable to create his republic. Bolivar tried to use authority to create stability, but failed. in some years later his vision was clouded by the victory and began to develop characteristics dictatorial. He was commonly seen as a dictator from his authoritative views. He declared himself dictator of Gran Colombia in 1828.

This exposure to new ideas played a crucially important role in the independence movement for Latin America, in that Simón used these ideas he was taught to influence the people of his country. Without Simón Bolívar’s avocation of these enlightment ideas to the people of Latin America, independence for these states may not have been possible. Since Simón Bolívar could be seen as responsible of the one advocating how important it is for citizens to fight for their rights and freedoms, and these ideas where the reason that ignited the movement towards independence. During the nineteenth century, many people needed some kind of guidance about how they should act and think in regards to being inferior to Spanish rule that had a hold on their country like Latin America experienced throughout Spanish colonial rule. Simón Bolívar and his enlightment ideas were just what the citizens needed in leading them towards independence, since it seemed like they were lost without his guidance. Perhaps Simón Bolívar was just the right intellectual at the right time, since it seemed that people during this time needed someone to guide or speak for them, and that they ultimately couldn’t think or act for themselves so Simón guided them. It was said that Simón Bolívar was considered an intellectual and that people followed his ideas and visions because his campaigns were so

“More than by force do they dominate us, by deception” were the words of Latin American revolution leader, Simon Bolivar. The Latin American revolution was a fight for independence from Spain, their mother country. In the colonies people were divided into different social groups. Beginning with the higher-classes the different classes were Peninsulares, Creoles, Mestizos, Mulattos, Indians and lastly slaves. The Creoles, American-born Spaniards, led this revolution for three reasons: desire of political control, to provide protection for their economic interests, and their fear towards social unrest.

Toussaint Louverture, a slave, an encouraging voice, then a leader of many. He has done a lot for his country, recently Saint Domingue now Haiti. His military commanding was outstanding and very natural, his liberation with slavery was a mandatory act, and being a ruler was an added bonus. He really helped Saint Domingue to become their own country. He is truly a memorable person in history.

In An Address of Bolivar at the Congress of Angostura by Simón Bolívar, it states “We are but mixed species of aborigines and Spaniards. Americans by birth and Europeans by law, we find ourselves engaged in a duel conflict…” (Doc. A) Since this is written in 1819 it is a primary source, it also has a negative view towards Europeans. This quote shows Simón Bolívar uniting his nation state. It is saying why they are different from Europeans and that they have to find their own position. The Europeans made a law that made people who were born in America still

I chose Cesar Chavez because he worked really hard to get where he was. His biography was admiring because he helped the farmers in many ways. He protested for better working conditions. Chavez felt that hard working farmers deserved fair pay. The way He fought for people's rights were very significant to the future all farm workers. Another reason why I chose him is because at the age of thirteen, he was a role model and a hero. He never got the chance to finish school, all he did was work on a farm for little pay. Chavez was strong was because he dealt with racism, ignorance and criticism. He was in the navy for two years. After he left, he met his wife Helen and had eight children. Those eight children helped around on the farm.

“One social change begins; it cannot be reserved. You cannot un-educate a person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore. We have seen the future, and the future is ours. “(Cesar Chavez). Although people have come to a point where they don’t appreciate what others do for them. All the rivalry is atrocious. The purpose of Cesar Chavez was to defend the people who struggled with supporting the families who had low pay, and bad labor conditions while working. Improving working conditions has increased over the years of rivalry. For example, restaurants who pay little but gain a max of tip sheer is great. individual aspirations toward Cesar were high, hope was in the air. The Rising expenses, prices have caused individuals be in debt. If prices would decrease, then there would not be a problem with being in debt.

simon bolivar was the best leader because he possessed moral leadership. Moral leadership is a good leadership skill because it means you have standards, morals to uphold. These morals are free rights, no slavery, and a democracy to simon bolivar. He did all those things for his

Simon bolivar, who was a rebel, decided to lead a revolution of South America. Simon bolivar was the leader of the revolution he gathered people from Venezuela and they fought fearless battle. Because Simon created a speech he became famous he quoted “let us lay the cornerstone of American freedom without fear!” Simon became military leader over patriots who were ready to fight. During Their first triumph came in 1813. He also gained the name el liberatador which meant the liberator. Super surprisingly they fought fight after fight, for over more than ten years. Simon never gave up hence the name “second Washington of the new world.” Simon bolivar, who was a rebel, became an exquisite hero.

Jose de San Martin led many independence movements in many South American countries. Simon Bolivar freed many countries from Spanish rule and he was the first president of Bolivar. Before the revolution the social structure system was not fair. The social system went Spanish born people known as Peninsulares, European descendents but born in Latin America known as Creoles, Native Americans and European descendents known as Mestizos, African and European descents known as Mulattos and Africans and Native Americans known as Peons. This was unfair because why are the Native lower than the people that invaded their land . The Natives know the land the best, they know where

In fact, the night Bolivar became the dictator of Gran Colombia, he barely escaped assassination. In fact, just a year later, “the opposition to Bolivar had assumed such proportions that an[other] conspiracy to eliminate him was set in motion” (“Simón Bolívar.” Encyclopedia of World Biography). However, Bolivar’s fame “continued to grow to mythical proportions in Latin America” because he was fearless and continued to undermine Spanish authority (“Simón Bolívar.” Encyclopedia of World Biography).

As I said before, many critics agreed that Hugo Chavez has been able to diminished Venezuelan democracy to convert it to a competitive authoritarian regime. Chavez has controlled the country and stills does, in a way in that using populism and his policy of clientism he gets the masses and specially the poor to support him and agreed with him in many of his reforms and actions. Allying himself with leftist countries like Bolivia, Ecuador, Nicaragua and especially Cuba, Chavez has implemented what he calls a “Bolivarian Revolution”, revolution that allows him to have a complete control of the country. Furthermore, Chavez has been using the oil revenues not only as a method of getting international support for his ideas and type of regime but also, for his own personal enrichment

Planning each aspect of the Revolution, he compiled shipments of arms without the knowledge of neither the United States nor Cuban governments. He placed his heart and soul into the organization and preparations of the Revolution without complaint. As the Revolution dawned, he fought with dignity and purpose, serving his followers well into the revolution even after death.

Even though there are vast differences between the plots of the books, the cultures they came from and the writer’s style of each of the novels; the main characters of the two books idea of what it means to have a meaningful life are selfsame. The idea that a meaningful life is one in which you are accepted by those you love and care for and those around you is shared between the minds of Antonio Jose Bolivar, of The Old Man Who Read Love Stories, and Gregor Samsa, from The Metamorphosis. Near the end of The Metamorphosis, Gregor’s family slowly transitioned from acceptance for Gregor in his new form, to disgust towards him. This new feeling of disapproval by his family pushes Gregor into a state of depression in which he unwantedly fasted,
