Question

"Imagine a historical figure is brought back to life. Who is it? What's their favorite mobile app?" (250 words or less)

Answer 1

I would like to see Abraham Lincoln alive and use Facebook. One of the most important reasons is that he was the one who pulled the strings of change in the society, especially in terms of abolishing slavery. He aimed at establishing equality among people by introducing the Emancipation Proclamation that officially ended slavery. However, Lincoln wouldn’t know what happened in the history after his demise. He took a brave decision in freeing the slave and ending slavery thus, leading the country to a civil war that would determine the destiny of the country as a single unit. If he comes alive, he would feel happy about the conditions of people who he freed and imagined would have a decent life on par with the whites. Although there is institutional racism, he would use Facebook to call for unity and abolishment of institutional racism. Abraham Lincoln would use Facebook as his tool because it’s got more users and he could use this medium to reach out many people in the country. While he would be happy to see the changes the country had undergone and the fact that there are only few fundamentalists left to defend racism, he would invite all the white people who feel that human beings are created equal to fight once again for the betterment of everyone in the country irrespective of race, religion, ethnicity, culture etc. in order to make America a great nation again. He would also fight those fundamentalist and force the government and people to introduce policies to keep them away from the society.
