I'd have to say Eleanor Roosevelt and Mae Jemison.

Since I was little I wanted to be an astronaut. Now that I'm older and realize there is no way in hell i can do the math and such that's involved with aeronautics, I admire Dr. Mae Jemison for all her hard work in breaking through that field.

I truly respect Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt for her dedication to the rights of all people including her soror Marian Anderson. I wonder were Roosevelt and Anderson members at the time when she asked Anderson to sing at the Lincoln Memorial. (I'm getting my pen now and ready to search away ) But her strength of character during war time abroad and racial war at home. She was a pilar of strength to both aspects of this community. A
