Analysis Of Melba Beals 'Warriors Don T Cry'

Jackie Robinson, Melba Beals, and Feng Ru all encountered racial and hard things that they had faced.

Feng Ru taught himself how to make an airplane and using the parts he got from a builders store, he flew over 120 feet without crashing after he finished his aircraft. Maksel told “in this tiny spot, the self-taught engineer established the Guangdong Air Vehicle Company in 1909, and completed his first airplane that year.”This shows that Feng Ru is self-taught for building his aircraft, he might have problems from flying.
