    *The majority of these videos are biographies. Many of the people listed here also have videos available of speeches and interviews they have done. In order to keep this list on the shorter side, they have not been included, but we encourage you to check them out on your own. Listening to a biography of someone and listening to them actually speak provide two very different viewpoints and perspectives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
