Einstein's Legacy

Einstein is known as the renowned scientist whose family escaped Nazi Germany to live in America. His family thought they were leaving behind all the bigotry and hatred, however, they had to deal with the injustices in America. There was a social caste system for White Americans in America, according to Sociologists. In this system, Anglo-Saxons were the highest, and immigrants from warlike countries were seen as the lowest. This affected job placement and livelihood because employers would base their decisions on your race and reputation. However, Einstein fought this with his mind and his knowledge, being born to a dedicated Jewish family and being undermined for lack of social skills even talking late did not stop the man. He would use his mind to advance his studies and become great. Einstein had Christian friends in college, who helped him advance. They help his reputation and got him jobs so he could build his family. They believed in his innate abilities and modest capabilities that he should be recommended to prestigious universities and ultimately to the President of the United States. Einstein did not want to invent the atomic bomb but he had to prove his loyalty to his nation, America especially when Nazi Germany knew of many prominent scientists of Jewish descent leaving to America. Nazi Germany plotted to take them out sending a message retrieved in the Carribeans. The President of the United States had to react and he called upon every able scientist to build mass weaponry. Einstein reluctantly accepted and became known for being a leading scientist of the nuclear weapons project. Einstein knew in his mind, that he did not want to be known for destruction and he fought to undo the harm of building that weapon, which could have been his greatest work. Einstein retreated from any further research and development after he saw the defeat of the Mad Genius of Nazi Germany. He led a reclusive life in expanding science and learning. Einstein did not back down from any academic dispute, when his students objected to his teachings and ridicule him, he would silently write on the board a greater achievement, the universal formula. He would quietly stand next to his greatest achievement and not allow anyone to leave his class without asking what it is. And he would teach about the formula in many different ways and make the whole semester about his greatest achievement to ingrain in their minds. Einstein hoped to make science more than formulas and power to transform it into the knowledge of brainstorming and thinking outside the box. He even tried to instill this into his children who followed in their father's footsteps. When he won the Nobel Peace Prize, he finally got his chance to change science for the good and to recognize intelligence as a force for good. Einstein believed that the mind should not be wasted on war and violence. And that we should undo the hatred in the world starting with children and build a world where people use their minds to solve real-life issues and create a future-ready to take on the challenges of the past. Einstein invested in an organization that teaches children to use their minds. His organization would share the knowledge of the community and collective learning. This created the brand of Einstein around the world as the master genius who inspires all people to achieve success through education. This brand made Einstein one of the greatest minds in human history and the genius behind collective world knowledge. He dedicated his brain to science asking his friend and colleague to remove his mind for science and that this was his last request. Einstein trusted his professor friend because he wanted to inspire the next generation to greatness and he felt that our minds should not be wasted. His friend respected his wishes and carefully displayed the mind which made Einstein so great.
