  10. Conclusion I learned many things about all the six people that I just talked about. Such as Thomas Edison, I didn’t know he was homeschooled, until now. From each of the six people I learned at lease one thing. All of the 6 people are very brave for what they did. They all had the courage to stand up for what they thought was right, and they all wanted to make a change. They all did partly the same thing, they fought , and won. Except for Thomas, he’s a different story. Thomas invented light, which took many tries, but he never gave up, he kept on trying, until he made it work. And it is still useful. All of these six people effected how the U.S.A worked even ‘till now.
