Civil rights leader-“a leader of the political movement dedicated to securing equal opportunity for members of minority groups.” While many Civil Rights leaders exist, there are few with the tenacity, courage, or heroism that Harriet Tubman had. She was a hero who freed hundreds of slaves, she inspired hundreds of young black children to fight against racism, and even though she faced many challenges, she still fought and came out on top as an African American legend. Harriet Tubman freed…

workers were under-aged, the hours were maliciously long, and the pay was minimalistic. Von Drehle exemplifies this by saying, “A laborer might agree to stitch linings into suit jackets for five cents per dozen, and work sixteen hours a day stitching a lining every five or six minutes – nearly a dozen an hour,” (42). When investigating factories in the early 1900s, “they saw dirt floors, rats, cats giving birth on the breadboards, bakers dripping sweat into their dough, sick children coughing…

This article circles back to not only the misrepresentation of women but also the lack of representation of women in Latin America. What really shocks me about this article is two ideas: (1) the fact that the United Nations rejected seven real-life candidates and (2) the idea that a fictional character can represent the struggles of women around the world. We can compare this decision to Volo’s article, “Mobilizing Mothers for War”, in which in times of war, women were given specific gender…

Through the first twenty years of a person’s life, there are dozens of first experiences. From the first time a baby walks through a crowded living room full of smiling faces to the first time a young adult walks through the door of a barren college classroom full of blank faces, there are hundreds of…

More canisters are being launched from the jeeps, accompanied by rubber bullets that only miss me by a few inches before landing in a puff of dust at my feet.
