1)What did you think of Mr. Tom Hayden?
i think he is a really interesting guy he taught us more about we are learning in class

2)Tom Hayden does not think he is a civil rigths leader.Do you see him as one?why or why not?
i think he sord of is a leader but at the same time no. i say yes because he was doing some interesting thing to help others specially people that were not his race, for example, he was regestrating blacks to vote

3)Tom Hayden feels that leaders are not as important as the hundreds or thousands of people behind them.what does he mean by that?
i think when he said this he meant that somtimes the ones that are really important are the people that the leaders are leading because they are really the ones getting all the attention

a. Write down a quote that you agree with or disagree with, and explain why you agree or disagree.

"if you've spent enough time in the kitchen to have broken a lot of pots, probably you know a fair amount about cooking." i agree with this quote because you learn from your mistakes. wich means that if you've broken so many pots than u've done many mistakes, and if u've done so many mistakes than u already learned what u needed to learn


b. Describe one of the biggest failures you’ve made in your life. How did the failure affect you? What did you learn from the failure?
i used to always do everything for my friend and be nice to them but when i really needed them they would not be there for me and the ones i always ignored and didnt listen too when i really needed help they would be there instead of the ones i was always nice to and everything


c. Why do you think I’m having you listen to this story?
i think it was to get us thinking of the mistakes we do in life and what we learned out of them
