Answer and Explanation:

1. These men appealed to people's proactivity. They meant that we have to move and act so that the future is as we wish. 2. This idea is important, because we often complain about how the world is, but we do nothing to change it, so the bad situations that exist in the world will never change.

The letter requested by the question is below:

Dear Peter,

I believe that you, like me, are unhappy with all the injustices, prejudices, racisms and problems in our society. These elements are tiring and make us think that humanity will never be good and that we will never live in a truly egalitarian community. However, I would like to inform you that, yes, the future does not have to be this way, if we act now to eradicate these elements that are so harmful, but so rooted.

Linconl and Ghandi once reinforced the idea that if we want changes, we must initiate them, we must work to make them happen and not sit around complaining about a miracle. based on this concept, from these very wise men I tell you, we can make a difference and we can start by registering to vote.

It is important that we vote for candidates that encourage the suppression of these harmful factors and not that encourage them, so I ask you to seek the difference and we will vote, take a step towards change, because even if we do not live the change, we may build a better future for our descendants.

Kind regards.

R.J.
