Dude, you totally left Madame C.J. Walker off and Benjamin Banneker! Those two are like awesome.. and how dare you leave them out!
Madame C.J. Walker invented the shampoo.. or made it .. or whatever but she's a cool sista! Benjamin Banneker was one of the first African-American scientists! Woo! Even Thomas Jefferson gave him appraisal! Woo! Haha, goes to show how much of a nerd I am. But dude -- Maya Angelou's awesome in more ways than one. |

although it's already March>> i wanted to cast a vote on this topic too. Each and every historical African American on the list has made some sort of impact on our lives and I thank them for all the blessings and rights they have done for us. I can;t even imagine how life would be if they weren't strong, and stuck to their beliefs. Without them, we would SERIOUSLY not be the nation we are today. and yes, I chose Harriet Tubman. She was such a strong woman and to believe that she was the brains behind the 'Underground Railroad', it's truly admirable. :)

I didn't vote for the sole reason that I admire them all. I can't pick just one.

MLK Jr., rosa parks, and harriet tubman. not so much of the athletes and artists---i think that the people i listed above shaped history extremely and should be most recognized for their achievements.

kunta kinte hands down. That man got his ass whooped and kept saying his name was kunta after the master told him to say his name was TOBY.
JUST KIDDING Actually everyone on this list has contributed something important to Black history. My favorites however are 2PAC, MALCOM X, and DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING. |

Why is JayZ even on it? I admire Martin Luther King Junior the most. I was so moved by his speech; it was awesome.
