To identify a person from this week's reading who had a significant impact on the years from 1945 to 1974, you can follow these steps:

1. Start by reviewing the material you have read for this week, focusing on individuals who stood out during this specific time frame.

2. Look for individuals who fit the criteria of shaping the era from 1945 to 1974. This could include presidents, social activists, or other influential figures.

3. Consider their specific individual influence during this period. What policies or actions did they introduce that had a lasting impact on the country or society? Did they inspire significant change or contribute to major reforms?

4. Finally, reflect on why you made your selection. Connect the impact of the individual to your understanding of the time period. Is their influence especially significant or representative of the major events and transformations that occurred during the years between 1945 and 1974?
