In the poem “Fury,” by Lucille Clifton, told a story about Lucille's mother who also wrote poetry even though she was uneducated. Her mother was asked to publish some of her poems in a book, but because of the arrow she live in (men were more dominant in society) Lucille's father would not let her publish her poems. In the poem it state “wife” by being an obedient wife, Lucille’s mother decided to sacrifice and give up the poems that she cherish so much by burning them in the furnace. Her “clutching hands, animal-like eyes, and her crying”, show how against she was to throwing away her work.
Good afternoon teacher and fellow classmates. I have selected the topic of Cathy Freeman and today I will show you how she has contributed vastly to Australian society since 1945. Forty-three years ago the remarkable Cathy Freeman ran her way into Australia’s heart as she earned Australia’s 100th Olympic gold medal and no athlete would wear the medal more appropriately. Catherine Astrid Salome Freeman is a former Australian sprinter specialising in the 4oo metre event.

Her best contribution was when we met with that Shoshone Indians she interpreted for Lewis and Clark, and it ended in us getting the horses and overcoming the impossible by getting over the Rocky Mountains. On this trip we were supposed to fulfill 3 goals on this journey. The first one was we were supposed to find a Northwest Passage and we didn’t.

Except for wells she had decided to be the one to take a stand against lynching which does deserve a stamp of honor. I choose to say that she deserves a stamp of honor because “after three friends of hers had been lynched by a mob, Wells began an editorial campaign against lynching.” The death of her friends made Wells finally take a stand and make a statement. No one was really taking any actions against the lynching so Ms. Wells decided to take it into her own hands. By doing this Wells put herself out there, I believe that this had to take a lot of courage because back then it was not the best of times for colored folks.

I enjoyed hearing about Sergeant Schardt’s time deployed in Iraq. I have never heard a female veteran talk about their time. She proves that people are capable of great things. The only limitations in life are the ones that you set for yourself. She was able to serve her country and gain an education in her lifetime.
