Freedom can mean a lot of things, it means many different things for many different people. It really depends on what that word means to them or oneself. Malala had once said, “words, books, and pens are more powerful than bullets.” I believe Freedom means to be able to go to school, to have the education you need because many other people around the world are not provided with the education or materials they need.
Malala like many others loved to do what was right and loved to help people out. She knew how to stand up for herself and do what had to be right. She was put in a very difficult time at one point and even after that, she did not let that change the way she did things nor make her weak. This did not make her weak but it made her stronger and she kept her confidence.
“The terrorist thought that they would change my aims and stop my ambitions, but nothing changed in my life except this: Weakness, fear, and hopelessness died. Strength, power, and courage were born”.(310) She does not hate the man that shot her but if anything she wants their sons and daughters to have an education as well. She shows everyone that they should love instead of hate and she learns that from the people that she looks up to like her mother and father. Malala wants to unite everyone and make peace although she knows that will never happen she still keeps her head up and does not let her hopes and dreams die.

The Inaugural address was a speech that JFK had given in 1961 which was also the year that he took office. He was the youngest person ever to be elected to the presidency. In his speech, he mentions many things about symbolism, god, power and faith. His speech was unforgettable just like many other speeches, for example, Martin Luther King Jr. and Franklin D Roosevelt In JFK’s speech, he mentions how the world has changed and that we should offer a special pledge to our close republics that are south of our border.
He wants to convert the good words that are said into good deeds. “-in the past, those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of the tiger ended up inside”.(248) He claims that we need to help those who need it to break mass misery and that we can help them help themselves for whatever time necessary. JFK is much like Malala because they both love to do what is right no matter the consequences. “If a free society cannot help the many that who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich’.(284) JFK is also very big with god because he wants Americans and citizens of the world to do the same for us as we are doing for them and asking for God’s blessing and help and that God’s work is truly our own.
Credo: What I believe is a story about a writer who lives in the strength of his own imagination and defends freedom of thought and expression. Credo was one of the stories written by Neil Gaiman and another story, for example, is Sandman in DC Comics. Credo which is also a statement of oneself’s beliefs which is what leads oneself to make bad or good actions. He believes that sharing ideas also spreads them and you can make ideas about other ideas that you don’t like. He also believes that ideas do not have to be the right to be able to exist. He also believes that if there were a battle between guns and ideas he would win with the ideas. “I believe that you have the absolute right to think things that I find offensive, stupid, preposterous, or dangerous, and that you have the right to speak, write, or distribute these things, and that I do not have the right to kill you, maim you, hurt you or take away your liberty or property because I find your ideas threatening or insulting or downright disgusting.” (IL12)
Malala, JFK, and Credo have all things in common because their beliefs in freedom and how they all believed that many things should be fixed and done differently to make the world a better place. They also mention many things that can replace hate. For example, Malala claims that books and words are more powerful. Credo claims that ideas are going to win in a battle against guns. JFK claims that there are many other ways to make the world better and all you have to do is have faith and keep your head up. “- thank you to god for whom we are all equal”(310) Malala.
