However, her life was filled with much more than being the first black woman to do important things. She believed in being a person to fight for changes.(23)All her life, she worked to improve the lives of others. Shirley received a good education from the British school system. She enjoyed the years she lived with her grandmother who believed in education.(24)As a young woman, Shirley decided to become a teacher because she believed she could improve the society by helping children. In 1968, she announced she would run for the United States Congress. She was elected from the newly created Twelfth District of New York City. Shirley Chisholm spoke strongly for the poor and for women. She worked for civil rights for African-Americans. She often spoke about cultural and social issues. Because most of the new immigrants are people of color,(25)she believes cultural adjustments must be made by all groups in America if we are to learn to live together as one nation.
