Answer:
Well, depending on the individuals you choose, your answer will change.
But I can help you with the pieces of evidence. So, when you'll choose this evidence, I suggest you look at the individual first actions before he or she be considered important for western society, and compare to what made him/she important. Do you see? You can explain trough this method why is important to care about this person. Another suggestion I can give you is about the "humanity" of these heroes. Try to explain on your pieces of evidence the failures of them, but that in the end, they could do something to the world.
I hope this can help you.
