Paragraph 2; The statement “Difference is that raw and powerful connection from which our personal power is forged” (MT, stanza 6) can be linked to the thesis: differences make a person stronger not weaker. This means that differences make you who you are, which is your personal power. It gives us the power to speak up. Therefor the statement from the text gives provides evidence for the thesis.
