<p>damn, I should read some of these books</p>
<p>What history examples are there?</p>
<p>WWII, Hitler , Communism...never fails!</p>
<p>I just don't really get what you'd say. Like for WWII, what do you say?</p>
<p>that honestly depends on the topic at hand, doesnt it? you can extract absolutely anything from history as long as you know the gist of whats happened in the last 100 or so years...the American/French/Russian revolutions are also helpful</p>
<p>Maybe I'm just nervous, but I don't get how you can use it.</p>
<p>Example, if the question was like, "Is it better to be an individual?" or something like that, how would you answer it?</p>
<p>Well, that's a very vague question in the first place. I'd need to see the whole prompt...</p>
<p>talk about leadership and not following the majority and all that *****</p>
<p>I know, but how would you integrate a historical event. :-(</p>
<p>damn it censored me</p>
<p>it is better to be an individual?
Rosa Parks was an individual when she didn't sit at the back of the bus like the rest of the African Americans and instead decided to do things her own way. </p>
<p>i need to see the whole prompt as well.</p>
<p>What about events, not people?</p>
<p>can't think of anything, sorry. </p>
<p>that almost seems oxymoronic. An example of an event that shows why it is better to be an individual?</p>
<p>Historical people or current influential figures are the way the go with prompts like that. </p>
<p>if you want to put it in another way,</p>
<p>influential people's experiences= events</p>
<p>but then, my example stands.</p>
<p>Ok, my bad on the question. I don't know how people like use the examples like the Civil War. I mean, what about it? I meant I know it was a political and social event, but what do you write about it?</p>
<p>Just pick a person, like Rosa Parks or whoever, and talk about how she made a difference by being individual, and how everyone else just sat back and watched. I don't know.</p>
