The list of "true revolutionary figure(s)" is a long one. George Washington springs to mind... and I'm still working through the autobiography of Nelson Mandela (Long Walk to Freedom). For each revolutionary figure that emerges and carries their agenda forward, I wonder how many we never hear of who were just as passionate but in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Excellent examples. Sorry I missed them. This is why I crowd source from people smarter than me.
