Anne Frank, or Lady Jane Grey!. Anne Frank because she was so young during Hitler's regime, and she was so strong, even when she was sent to the concentration camps with her family, and she even showed the world what she felt!. Jane Grey because throughout everything that happened to her, her own family turning on her, she still held strong, even though her own husband deserted her!. also, why is she so left out in History!?

William Wallace!.
He's probably nothing like how Scottish historians have made him out to be (a saint), when he's probably nothing of the sort!. They've left out a lot of information - like him locking a bunch of women and children in a church and setting it alight!.
I think it'd be interesting to know what he was really like!.
I hated the way Mel Gibson made up this whole pretty boy, whiter than white, hero image of him which has stained everyone's perception of him!.
Sorry, my essay's over now!.

Emily Davison, a suffragette who lost her life for the cause!. It was supposed she threw herself in front of a horse but another theory was she was trying to attach the suffragette flag to the kings horse so that when it came in at the end of the race it would be brandishing the flag!.
