My name is Shivam Srivastava. I am currently a 13-year-old that attends Cedar Crest Academy in Clarkston. Though I go to school in Clarkston I live in Grand Blanc, Michigan in the U.S. I live with my younger brother, mother, and father. My parents are originally from India but moved here because of job opportunities in 2001. When COVID-19 hit and I was stranded in my house with only my brother for entertainment I started thinking about exploring some new hobbies, before COVID my hobbies were collecting Pokèmon Cards (don’t judge), reading and playing basketball, but then my father introduced me to blogging. It seemed like a new fun thing to do. All I needed to do was something to write about. My inspiration came to me when I re-watched Zootopia. The movie itself was not what inspired me but the speech that Judy Hopps the protagonist in the movie says- “We all have a lot in common. And the more we try to understand one another, the more exceptional each of us will be. But we have to try, So no matter what type of animal you are; from the biggest elephant to our first fox, I implore you - try. Try to make the world a better place. Look inside yourself and recognize that change starts with you. It starts with me. It starts with all of us.” This inspired me to find people who recognized that change. But what’s the fun in doing Bill Gates or Steve Jobs? It’s more interesting to find those hidden people on the overlooked spectrum. So now - for real - without further ado let’s flip a few pages in our history books and discover the uncelebrated people who shaped the world!
