My match would be Mary Church Terrell due to our match of ideals. One reason is because Mary Church Terrell and I are both civil rights activists. Mary Church Terrell was a very intellectual woman, she was one of the first African-American woman to earn a college degree. Similar to me, Mary Church Terrell was also taught about the value and importance of education at a young
She is always quite witty and has an arsenal full of snarky comebacks that she can unleash at any time. When thrown into a tricky situation, she can be unsure of herself, terrified, confused, and excited all at the same time. But when the going gets tough she will always find a way to take care of her loved ones and herself. Nonetheless, she is not your badass character with innate physical strength common to most heroines. Most of the time she will muddle through problems by sheer will, which is what makes her such a brave and personable character that light up the entire
I can relate to a few of them in many different ways, from being antisocial and awkward like Xander, as he tends to act extremely uncomfortable around people, to acting like a bully as Izzy does to people, I feel like my personality is very similar to some of the characters in the book. First off, I can definitely relate to Izzy. I know this might sound very strange, but I can. Not in terms of academics, but in different
If I could change places with one character it would be Grover because Grover is half goat half human and the protector of Percy Jackson who is a demigods. For those of you who have not read the book, Percy Jackson and the lightning thief Grover is a half goat who is Percy best friend but Grover make sure that Percy does not get into any trouble with the monsters that follow him. Why would I like to be Grover because Grover goes with Percy Jackson when he is fighting monsters. Grover is Percy best friend and he gets to tag along on all the advantages Percy goes on. I would also like to be Grover because his half man half goat.
In my opinion I believe I am a mixture of Andrew Clark and John Bender. Andrew Clark represents me because I tend to be pretty fit and sporty. I also tend to be one of the smartest when it comes to making quick decisions. In the film he was the one that neglected smoking marijuana the most because he did not want to get in trouble with the
The person I chose that I would like to be described as is an ice hockey player known as P.K. Subban on the Montreal Canadiens. Subban is a great role model for young people and deserves the respect that I have for him. When he is on the ice, Subban is always working hard to get better at different zones of skill such as stick handling, shooting the puck, and body checking. When Subban is off the ice, he is always very fun and kind to his fans and even the opponent’s fans. Subban always tends to be very active in the hockey community for helping the youth improve when he is not working hard to improve himself.
Eleanor Roosevelt's tremendous accomplishments as a diplomat, activist, and author also contributed to her lasting influence on the world, influencing human rights issues long after her passing. She is considered to be one of the most significant and influential individuals of the 20th century because of the way in which her extraordinary accomplishments
Susan Brownell Anthony, a woman of abstinence, abolition, and African-American rights. A brave soul who took pride in trying to fight not only for her rights, but all of the fellow ladies and underprivileged people who did not really have a say. She was a kind woman who simply fought for what she believed in and those happened to be some of the most common human rights that we now have because of people like her. Rights to be payed the same. Rights to vote the same.
The reason why I have chosen Gloria Steinem is because she is one of the many important and influential women involved in the second wave feminist movement. In her career, Steinem has done a great many things in the fight for equal rights for women that has helped influence the 21st century and made many things possible for women in the United States of America. The reasons why Gloria Steinem is so important is that she has helped shape our country into what it is today by breaking social norms and fighting for what she and many other believed was right. In her career Steinem has achieved many things including, founding newspapers for women, writing essays about problems in America.
If I could choose a super villain or superhero to be for one day I would choose America Chavez. America Chavez is basically the female Hispanic version of Captain America. This fictional character is extremely important to me because it one of the few times I've seen a positive portrayal of Latinas in mainstream content. I am Latina myself and I find it hard to avoid the stereotypical picture that mainstream media portrays Hispanic as.
Rosa parks follows another woman, Claudette Colvin. Claudette did do exactly the same thing as Rosa, but she was pregnant at the time so the NAACP though she didn’t have the ability to stand up on her own. Colvin, Parks, Lafayette, Emeagwali, Fuller, Malcolm X, and Bridges are just a couple of the great african-american heroes. Rosa Parks is a influence on all people. She shows everyone that if they stand up in what the believe in they can do all things, even if there are consequences.
To do so, she became an American abolitionist and political activist. One of the movements she joined was the Woman’s Suffrage which demanded the rights of women and persuades the public about gender equality. Her contributions proved that she cared deeply about these issues and carved a path for today’s society. Since she deeply believed in demolishing these problems, she’s also an excellent inspirational example to individuals because of her nerve to stand against all
Eleanor Roosevelt Eleanor Roosevelt was a very well-known lady throughout her time serving as a first lady. She helped many people and inspired all. No matter what kind of state she was in, she never gave up and kept on going. She always was devoted and confident in her job in the politics. She was so intelligent as a leader always making the correct choices and leading us to right places.
What were some unique weapons that were used in World War II? Well, to start off it should be known that many of World War II weapons were big, small, long, tall, etcetera. Some of them were weird in many ways too. Some of them were heavy or had weird names.
Gloria Steinem immediately stuck out to me because of her Ohio origin. I love a good hometown hero, myself, and she is the perfect woman to call a hero. I first heard the name “Gloria Steinem” when I was in a musical production of Legally Blonde the Musical; Steinem is, essentially, one of the lead characters’ role models, which is understandable considering all of the incredible work that she has done. Steinem is a writer, lecturer, female organizer, and activist (About). She is basically this incredible, feminist super-hero who travels this and other countries to help organize and lecture about issues around feminism, race and sex caste systems, gender roles, child abuse and non-violent conflict resolution among other important topics.
