There was a Pakistani girl named Malala Yousafzai who got hurt for saying that women deserve an education in her country. She didn’t care if that’s what her society thought to be acceptable, she knew it wasn’t right and so she rebelled against the whole idea of it. She survived her injuries, and now she protests for women to have a better education. There are a lot of women all over the world just like her that rebel against society’s view of women. In the story, the Awakening, Edna also rebelled against society by freely expressing herself.
Somehow caught in a never ending battle of how to survive. For April Raintree, her battle was both hiding and finding her identity- spiritually, emotionally and physically. Even though April Raintree had so many defining moments in her life, the three main factors that shaped her identity was living with the DeRosier’s, the rape, and the death of her sister. When April Raintree was living with the DeRosier’s, they changed her identity drastically. By living with the DeRosier’s April was taught to hate her people, her family, but she also learned to stay strong.
Sociological Perspective SOC 100 June 27, 2013 Sociological Perspective In the video “School girl attacks”, a young Middle Eastern girl was attacked by men on motorcycles; she was not doing anything wrong, simply on her way to school when these men threw some clear liquid on her, it turns out that it was acid. The school girl believes that her attackers were the Military, in the video it was sub “the enemy”. From the Conflict Perspective, there is a lot of tension in the Middle East; these attacks are causing tension between the citizens and the military, thus increasing the violence in the Middle East. Examples of these tensions would be the fact that we have acid thrown onto girls, causing their arms and faces to burn, and at times causing them to go blind. The victims are young Middle Eastern girls who simply want to better their lives and get an education.
On the new bus rides to and from school. They’ve started tossing wads of paper and a wet chewing gum at Paul by an older kids in the back of the bus. Paul was cornered by Chris’s friends. When he arrive to the playground Chris grabbed Paul’s shirt and raised his fist at him. Questioning him if he was George’s new friend he denied being George’s friend then Chris threw him on a ground.
At 2 am they went on a joyride, and like they had done in the past, use slingshots to shoot rocks at houses. One of the houses they hit was Adrian Crump’s. They continued down the street, stopped to shoot another house, and it was at that point that Adrian Crump confronted them. From that moment on, the witness accounts began to vary. Mr. Crump allegedly got out of his car, and not seeing the faces of who was in the other car, began to tell the teenagers to leave.
At the time she killed her children, she believed she was possessed and that the sign of Satan was marked on her scalp. She told the police that her children “weren’t developing correctly” and that drowning them was the only way to save them. It is possible the ideas of the minister pushed her to believe she a bad mother and to spare her kids from going to hell, she took it upon herself to take their
Malala Yousafzai is a national role model and example of a Transcendentalist superstar for her actions of fighting for the rights of Middle-Eastern women to have an education and larger place in society against the insanely biased and unfair power of the Taliban. She will stop at nothing to fulfill her goal, and always has the benefit of mankind nuzzled in the back of her mind when taking potentially perilous actions or delivering her heart-driven speeches. Malala Yousafzai’s selfless actions and sacrifices, along with her inspirational role in the progress of women’s rights in the Middle East creates her growth as a human and position as iconoclast in the world undeniable. It was acknowledged that the growth of a human is very important to the advancement of society, but how is one supposed to behave like a decent person when they are treated as a second-class citizen with rights lesser than those of the mosquitoes? Women living in the Middle East under the rule of the Taliban are the lowest part of their caste system, incapable of living their life with dignity and self-interest.
She had to give permissions to herself because her parents had been captured. She decided to fight and she became a brave leader in order to make a difference. I see Ellie changing in the book. The first time that she was really scared, when there was a snake in Kevin’s sleeping bag, she ran off without thinking. But the next time, when they found out that there was a war going on from Corrie’s dad’s fax, she started to stand up to her fears and acted like a soldier being really cautious.
She is a young head strong girl who knows what she wants and how to get it, while not letting anything obstruct her path. By saying ‘I shall not prove disloyal’ represents how she feels about what she is going to do, even though it does mean breaking the law. Antigone knows that is against the law but doesn’t care because her family and moral values are more important to her. She made a vow she took seriously to bury her brother and her execution of that vow epitomizes her view of the correct moral duty. A responsibility that one is given as soon as they enter the family is making decisions and displaying actions that carry forth a sense of ethical duty.
Child of The Dark Paper Carolina has made some bad decisions in her life, but so has everyone else. To me she represents the everyday woman struggling to keep her family alive and well. All she wants is the best for her children and herself. Carolina is a strong woman and she is very independent. As Audalio Dantas, I will publish the Diary of Carolina Maria de Jesus because I want to show the people how Carolina’s pride in her own independence is the vital importance that determines both her identity and the way she reacts with other favelados.
