    Voting was not an option for African Americans until decades after the constitution was ratified. While the constitution gave them freedom, equality, and civil rights, it did not protect them from being viewed as second class citizens and from being treated unfairly. Even to this day, they are still discriminated against and treated/thought of poorly, not only by some people but also by some of the authority figures. If we use our first amendment rights, I believe that we can start a change in how oppressed minorities are treated by everyone. More awareness has been brought to this issue because of marches and protests that people are holding almost weekly.

Most would think this to be a simple illustration of a murder trial, but this case comes with a twist. The twist is that the murder took place in rural Virginia in 1895. This is a time period that is characterized as post Reconstruction but before the implementation of the Jim Crow Laws. Being a Confederate state shortly after the Civil War, one would believe that race relations in Virginia would be extremely tumultuous, but this case just happens to fall in a small window of time in which relationships were surprisingly harmonious.

    Catwoman is the anti/superheroine that has the majority of qualities that I would like to have if I were to become a superhero for a day. Catwoman is the one of the most underappreciated characters due to the fact that she is an anti-heroine, isn’t always noble, and does not possess the stereotypical traits that other superheroines have. She might not have the ability to fly, or have superhuman strength but she has amazing agility that rivals all humans. In many scenarios, being quick on one’s feet and being able to dodge attacks can win against even the strongest opponents. Due to this, the super-ability of agility enables anyone to get out of a tight situation and that is why I would like to have this abilty that she possesses.
