I guess I'll just write about people, since it'll be the fastest for me.
1. George Washington, the very first president of the United States of America. He was a great leader, and he helped bring an entire nation together with the help of his allies and supporters.
2. Frederick Douglass, a runaway slave and the man who most likely contributed to the Black Power movement the most. He gave powerful speeches everywhere, and thanks to that he helped make all black men and women free from slavery. Not equal, but they were free.
3. Rosa Parks. She boycotted against the way blacks were treated, and, probably the most memorable thing she did, she refused to sit in the back of a bus, where the blacks were forced to sit, and that brought more people to fight for black rights.

<u>Prophecy of the Volva</u>
Voluspa, or more accurately Völuspá is the first set of Viking Age poetry in the Poetic Edda, a Norse Mythology Book, some might say THE Norse Mythology book! The Völuspá translates to mean the “Prophecy of the Volva” or “Prophecy of the Seer.” A Volva was a wise-woman in old Norse culture.
It is commonly thought that the poem was composed in Iceland about the year 1000, when Icelanders perceived the fall of their ancient gods and the approach of Christianity. The story is told by an age-old seeress who was reared by primeval giants.
It tells the story of the creation of the world and its coming end, related to the audience by a völva(a Viking witch was known as a Völva, and they were considered to be powerful seeresses, shamans as well as workers of Seidr magic) addressing Odin. It is one of the most important primary sources for the study of Norse mythology. Henry Adam Bellows proposed a 10th-century dating and authorship by a pagan Icelander with knowledge of Christianity.
