de Maria Opoku -
Hey! I am Maria, I'll be studying Law with Business and I am from East London. There are a number of popular figures who have inspired me but a notable person would have to be Harriet Tubman! Harriet is famous for taking the brave initiative in leading the African slaves to escape which defied the subordinate position labelled to her, I believe her courage and selflessness is quite admirable; from a slave to an American abolitionist. This has positively impacted my desire to bring positive and evident change in our future society.
