Today something happened that made me relish my unsung heros.
That would be a big shot of dlowan with a splash of Noddy, a pinch of sozobe and a dash of someone who asked to never be mentioned.
My brother is probably my biggest unsung hero but I can't really sing about him here even though I wish I could.
And then there is Ida B. Wells who has been very quietly sung for a bit of years but who deserves a choir.
Who are your unsung heros and why are they heros and why are they unsung?
Sing already!
Thanks!
@boomerang,
All of my heroes are sung.
@boomerang,
Here's one of mine...

perhaps a little bit sung...introduced to me by my high school history teacher, whom I hated at the time and only grew to respect many years afterwards, and I suppose is now another of my unsung heroes. I must find him and tell him, assuming he is still alive.
Another, also somewhat sung, is Harper Lee.
@Eorl,
