'White Oprah's Response To The Tree Of Life'

Superior Essays
There were only women. The women had everything, they had built their society to perfection. The world was at peace, and in perfect order. The women had a solution for everything: climate changes, world hunger, and poverty. Although they had all this, they wanted more. They had a thirst that water couldn’t quench. They had read all the stories about true love, and finding prince charming. Since women learned to reproduce on their own, they had wiped out the male species entirely. A century later, women started to crave the companionship of men. Forgetting all the bad that men had done in the past, White Oprah travelled a long distance to speak to the Tree of Life.
"What brings you here, White Oprah?" The Tree of Life asked. "I came here for the seed." White Oprah stated. "What? No, you can't, White Oprah!" the Tree of Life yelled in shock, "We have everything we need! We can't ruin all our ancestors have worked so hard to achieve!"

"Ladies..." White Oprah lifts her hand in the air and signals towards the women. "Please, White Oprah, think about what you're doing!" The Tree of Life begs White Oprah, but White Oprah doesn't listen, and signals for the women to go on. The women then proceeded to chop down the tree, and forcefully removed the seeds. They had murdered The Tree of Life. White Oprah returned to headquarters. "I have the seeds." she reported to her leader, White Beyoncé. "That’s all I'm looking for." White Beyoncé turns around, taking the seeds from White Oprah. White Beyoncé was a good leader, but she had one hamartia, she was crazy in love with the idea of love. She was tired of being a single lady, and wanted nothing more than for someone to put a ring on

    Women throughout the centuries have been forced to make incredibly difficult decisions, some of which are painful and self-sacrificing. The fight for Women’s Rights has been an ongoing battle with many accomplishments, including but not exclusive to the right to vote, the right to an education, Roe vs. Wade, and the ability to have a career typically held by men. Even in this modern age, with opportunities once seen as a fantasy being a reality, women are still unequal in many ways around the world. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, women were almost entirely reliant on their male counterpart. Women did not work, but rather stayed at home to attend to the every need of the husband and children.…

    Over the years, I have read an abundant amount of books and have empathized with plenty of fictional characters; Francie Nolan, from ‘A Tree Grows in Brooklyn’ by Betty Smith, is one of those special characters. Although my life story may differ from Francie’s, she was a relatable character that has experienced what many of us have experienced in life when growing into a young adult. I read ‘A Tree Grows in Brooklyn’ for the first time when I was eleven years old and I immediately began to identify myself with the young, aspirational Francie Nolan. Although I did not come from an impoverished home, I grew up with struggles (like everyone else) and had always seemed to view the world as a beautiful place despite the tragedies that occur in…

    In Zora Neale Hurston’s book, Their Eyes Were Watching God, she uses a lot of symbolism and references to nature through the story of the main character, Janie, in her lifetime.

    A Feminist Myth is one that regards women in a way where they are empowered and have equal, if not more, power compared to men. There is a sense of equality between men and women in feminist myths, and men are no more powerful than the women.

A Taste of Earth, One Hundred Eggs, and The White Buffalo Woman are all feminist myths, and the main characters, Au Co and White Buffalo Woman, are both culture bringers. In the beginning of both female’s journeys as culture bringers, the degree of feminism in their cultures becomes immediately evident.…

    Sexual harassment has always been, and still is, an extremely controversial topic. Some people tend to think that sexual harassment cases are all stemmed from lies made up by victims to gain attention or sympathy. Others, however, see sexual harassment as a serious crime that has been locked away in a vault and ignored by society. Whichever side one takes, the fact that sexual harassment and sexual discrimination laws play an important part in many aspects of society still stands. From the beginning of time, humans have struggled in deciding what rights certain groups should or should not have, and, slowly, everyone started to be set upon the same plane.…

    Patriarchy, like other social constructs, is an internal systematic oppression that has slowly evolved over the course of humanity and somehow managed to stick around. How the patriarchy came to be and why it is still in place are questions with indeterminate answers. However, many feminist works go on to challenge the patriarchy’s actuality by identifying certain characteristics of our society that may have contributed to the growth and dominance of the male gender. Although, so as to correct any personal convictions, it is important to recognize that a patriarchal culture can only exist given that the oppressed is accommodating.…
