Hello there everyone I wanted you all to see a little of me in this blob post. I am with my dance instructor Eva Szabo. She is awesome at getting your body prepared for a hard ballet day. So sometimes when I am not taking classes I would go and work on my technique. I like dancing because it keeps me in a calm state and I am able to praise God that way because he blesses us all along the way.

Hello there I have written a reflection on how I wrote my research paper, "Should women in america have an equal pay standard". I had selected a few annotations which I tried to gather up as much information from Micheal Moore's film, "where to Invade next" Iceland,is a country that is the most feminist country in the world because Iceland wants gender equality for both sex's. At the moment it is at 18% in the wage gap(Kvenrettindafelag). There is still a gender gap in many counties including America so I wanted to find out why America still had a wage gap?
Who did you work with to compose your research paper? Was this a good approach? I read various sources to get a sense of that America and Iceland need help with in the gender equality values a balance on gender equality. I thing the citations are very reliable because it is up to date with all the relative statistics and the tutoring lab would also help me out with the editing. Then I would ask my teacher Mr. Mangini for help in the write ups to make sure he understood what was going on. Afterward he would give me feedback for me to revision. I wanted to make sure that I also quoted the the sources so they could get credit for their work. What rhetorical mode and genre are you using? The rhetorical made is to persuade, I wanted to really inform my reader of the biases that lead to the unequal pay wages of the societies. America in reference to Iceland had a few similarities but there were small changes that Iceland did from watching American protest. Over all I believe that women in America are not voicing out there opinions in unison as much as the Icelandic women. Then I want to persuade Americans to change a few scheme's to make the earning of women if not equal then less polar. I think America can be a feminist country but the top American man do not want it that way. When did you write this project?Good approach Good approach?I wrote the project the week after 4/20. I first wanted to find out what I wanted to do. So I looked at the arguments I had mad up while watching "where to Invade Next by Micheal Moore.when I found the topic I was looking for my research paper I had to do more reading to understand the topic before I started to write the information. I had to figure out what is causing the bias earning income for women to men in America. I think at the end to me it is understandable so I also want it to be easily digested. I would use some of the hyperlinks that Sabatino had provided for us so that I could look up some examples. Where did you write this project? Good approach? I wrote the research paper whenever I thought about ideas for writing the paper. I tried to find articles that would benefit the need for women to protest the workforce to get better wages in America. I think it was a good approach because I was taking as much time as I had to find sources and articles that would benefit my topic. Why did you choose to write about your chosen topic? Good choice I choose to write about women in America having an equal pay standard. I think it is very important because women have been stereotyped to be a house wife and women do not like the to be submissive to men. Women want to be in the competitive environments as men, but even when women are working at the same level as men they were still stigmas that left women in a glass ceiling. I wanted to figure out why those women are still earning less than they deserve and how could America fix it. My Choice went well, I was able to find resources that caused the polarity between the gender gap. there are also inconsistencies in the American culture that lead to a role strain in working mothers. How did it feel to write this argument When I was writing the research paper, I was looking at a few sources that I cited on the paper because I was looking at the information that I could find. It was a very informative essays from multiple sources on how the American and Icelandic society women would earn their wages in a fight for gender equality and the wage gap. I felt very smart researching this idea because it was a passion that made me want to know more and more about the subject because it is so relevant in today's economy. I hope I can continue to do researches in my adult life to truly get a sense of what the societies are going through in their culture. How will you revise your argument? To revise my work I will try to get more voices into my work because I really want to reinvent the paper so it is more readable and very direct. I hope to not dilute the topic because I did not specify the argument clearly. I want to form a structured argument but still make my thesis dominant. The information provided which can answer the rhetorical question and not to let others think in a was that is not similar to my information. I want to answer the rhetorical questions with no space for individual prejudiced.

I where to invade next is a movie of how a United States citizen wants to know what is making the economy in certain counties different that the united states of America. they decided to hire a representative that would step in as a United States representative to study those counties devices without bringing attention to the fact that the American government was gathering report from them.
Does a well balance lunch honestly matter in an educational system? Yes it does, if a school only served fast food or chips for lunch it would lead to malnutrition and low energy in the students that are in that education system. Without a healthy nutrition the students would not listen to the teacher. an argument is that the ability to feed the children is already nutrition because the children are not starving while they are in class, even though the the food choices are not at the health standard there are a lot of children that still benefit from simply receiving food. 2 The ability for a country to have a fair trail, the sentences all have to be mutual to every prisoner. In Norway there is a limitation on how many years one have to serve there punishment, in jail. The longest year being 21 years,(Micheal Moore) all the criminals were charged using the same method and these prisoners would not be charged longer than the expected year. should the prisoners in the prison system be given a structure of years they can serve their prison sentence? I think they should because it is showing equality through the judgment process, the even sentence distribution shows that the prisoner is not being shown cruel and unusual punishment or serve longer sentences than required maybe to let the prisoners repent for their crimes. Argument: The prisoners do not have any right to find equality in a structured prison sentence. Since the prisoner made a deviant act, that act has to be punished in its own method because the court is forcing judgment on the convict for the deviance it had in their country. Many of the prisoners if made submissive could have the ability to understand right from wrong because of the sanctions they had received while they are in jail. America should also leave the judgment in categories because it splits off those who are in jail for minimal crimes like not paying for their speeding ticket, to those who need more time like murders. 3. In Tunisia's civil rights protest the women had to have a voice in their countries parlement so they would show up at the supreme court protesting and showing their stance for womens rights. The protest rised the interest of the women vote that the government wanted women to receive their right to vote and work in parliament. Should women be paid the same pay wage as the man in their work area. women are really trying to find their voice in the work force by working the same amount of hours as men but in the American culture white men seem to still get the bulk of the encome women should be able to receive the same amount income because the ability to work in the same quality as a men. Argument: If women were able to earn the same amount of wages as a white men the American economy would grow exponentially. There would be inflation in the goods because those who have the ability to work, are working. the Inflation will make it even harder for those who are below the poverty line to afford anything to eat. Those who were not able to find a job might be jobless because of all the positions being more competitive between both genders.. An argument I made in from what I gathered from Where to Invade Next is, " should one country have a separation of church and state. in the Article there was the Tanisha who wanted the women voice to be considered in their culture the women decided they needed better social stability apart from religious stratification in the context of the Muslim ideal. In the share of political power women in Tunisia would have a voice to make them feel safe. before this time the women would not feel safe in their country because the country was contanly making laws that would benefit a man and not a woman. I think the reason women received their oppression with protest. They would be able to show how endurance of a negative interacting could have long term benefits and that is by coming together and forcing the governmnet to watch them and help make america grow from these innovative idea. Summary and Rhetorical Analysis of Where to Invade Next
In the documentary Where to Invade Next, Michael Moore, was hired by the United States of America to find out what innovative ideas could help pacify angry U.S citizens. Moore let’s America know that they are not in the apex of their life or economic well being as they thought. They believed that they have the opportunity that is far perceiving the others and is more cultural inclusive and very cooperative in social interaction. Instead the elites are examining all the protest from different minority groups, or lobbyist for lower college tuition, and drug charges, and the cruelty of the prison systems. Therefore they decided to listen to the people’s voices and hired, Michael Moore to go and ask a few countries from various continents due to specific successes, and how they think that benefits their society. Then America will steal the idea and find a way to better listen to their people, they have found out that from half of the countries they went to for idea’s, told Moore that their idea’s originated from the American government and Advances in the specific field. American is really passionate on paid vacations, mores of drug convictions, women's rights, and recognition of the criminal system.
Hello there this is my reflective Writing and it is the Mosiac-theise questions for my Life-Choice Memoir.
I will revise my work using assistance. I also let Mr, Mangini look at my work so he could tell if it pleases him or not. I wanted to make sure it does because I want my work to be worthy of readers. Blog Post #5
Well hello there I'm writing about Hills Like White Elephants (Ernest Hemingway), its about a couple who has found out they are expecting a child, but they are deciding if they want to keep the child. As a reader it is very hard to understand what the subject was, nonetheless the women in, Hills Like White Elephants (Ernest Hemingway) wanted to keep the child because she believes the child need to be alive. she felt as though it was a lonely choice to choose against a life. while the father does not really understand what is going on in the women's head because, she seems to switch up her words but in a sneaky way he kept asking for the women to get and abortion. The women would not do it. It is important to let you know that life should be supported, but a woman does have a choice in that matter because its her body. so it was important for the father to support her choice. it seems like the father knows he had to be at least reasonable for he had to decide how to grow up. If he does not want to support the child I think he could have suggested other options than killing the child. Maybe adoption could have been another option. It is important for a child to be able to trust their parents and if you are going to extremes without thinking of all the options then you might get tangled in unseen circumstances. I am glad they might be heading in a route of responsibility because they have to grow to understand how to hold the child down, until he has grown up, even though tensions are high it is necessary that they could take responsibility for their baby. Well the situation could have been better all together but the world is no longer perfect, so the had to work on it. I think they are going to compromise a lot, but they will make it work. There was a time when I had to choose if I wanted to live in America or stay in Cameroon. Cameroon where my family is and where my mother resided with my vincula that makes my identity, I thought if I could expand my views and become more desirable in the competitive economy that is in America, I could earn more than what the African currency would pay me,At the time I needed to get a permanent card and that time was the perfect opportunity. I was able to go get my passport and prepare for my new adventure that was in the near future. So as a 7 year old in the 3rd grade I thought I have a chance to see what America was like, how another continent would act and behave, and how the growth will prepare me to give back in the future. It is important to give back and show that there is more to than just yourself and it is not just money because that is just a material object. The thought of coming to America was so exciting it blinded me from the fact that I had to leave and stay miles away from my parents in hopes of getting a citizenship for my parents. Blogpost #4 Hello there I'm writing about a podcast that I heard, What You Don't Know (Lulu Wang), its about how lying could help a person instead of telling them the truth. Lulu used her grandmother as an example. Lulu's Nainai was diagnostic with lung cancer by their doctor, but due to Chinese custom lulu's aunt received the massage. Lulu's Nainai does not want to see her diagnostic, but due to her life expectancy of 3 month her family felt as though it was argent to see her. Since the family knows that Lulu's Nainai does not want to be around negative energy, her family through a lie of an early wedding party instead of a grief gathering was best.
Did you agree with the family's choice to deceive Wang's grandmother? I thought Lulu's family was right in lying to her mom because her mother preferred not to be surrounded by grievances in her diagnostics. -Nainai believe if you believe in a superstition then it will come true- If her family had arrived just to grieve at her and show the expectancy of her demise, it would have made the symptoms a lot more real than a gathering as celebration and coronations. With Nainai’s inability to show her grief it seemed more uncomfortable to Lulu when her father cried in the midst of his wedding speech, while addressing Nainai. To Lulu it seemed like the conversation they had was a list on how to maintain the lie, but he broke his composure during his motivational speech. Wow a lie to someone could seem as a good idea, if you are trying to help someone get to a place where they are at peace to make a decision that is more pleasing to them it seems a lot more comfortable to lie. while a lie could be malicious instead of lying for reasons more self serving and manipulative. Lulu’s family knew that they loved their mother well enough to do do something that is really taboo in God and societies. Love can make one over-look situations. When have you made an important choice to tell someone a difficult truth or you made an important choice to tell a lie that had a major impact on you and/or someone else? One can see how America can be the land of opportunities. America which land was built on religion from the british refugees that wanted to find their own voice in their religious freedom and their own way of live that is free from monarchy. Well throughout the years America has use money as a way to manipulate and control countries, American aspirations In the Africa cosmopolitan is emphasized how wealthy America is. America was seen as this competitive area where you could be who you want to be if you do your part in earning your wage of work. So for an emigrant to move to America, it is very important for the emigrant to become a benefactor for those who are still striving to come out of their economic poverty, also some foreign visa/ passport Processes are a lot more complicated, one the reason for becoming a naturalized citizen of the USA was to be an above average academic platform to get better wages, Therefore to become a resident in the Land of opportunities some names had to be stretched and processed fixed to accommodate living situations to become an american citizen. God and behold has kept me save to have opportunities America could give me and my family. My Name is Margaret (Maya Angelou) is about Margaret's life as a young girl who worked as a servant for a white women, Mrs. Cullinan. She is not a slave but served Mr.Cullinan is her job, Margaret does mind that. Mrs. Cullinan changes her name to Mary, Therefore, Margaret breaks Mrs. Cullinan's casserole dish because she wanted to find a way to get out of the relationship.
In the rest of this blog post, I will respond to two reading-related questions: Did you agree with Margaret's choice to break the casserole dish and two green glass cups? In my opinion Margret was right in her choice to break the casserole dish. For she has been a loyal servant for years now, Margret has been a very hard-working girl who is living in the segregated south so it is important for her to find a way to support her mother, so she took care of mrs.Cullian’s house for a wage. She knows Mrs. Cullinan for years now and she had slept in Mrs. Cullinan's house and seen Mrs, Cullians husbands daughters. So for Mrs. Cullinan to choose to change Margaret name to Mary, so suddenly just because a friend of hers told her to, it was not okay with Margaret. No for that white lady with all that experience out in the social word especially in her time she knew how crass her friend was being and she played into it. when slaves and blacks would be called different names to show them off as property, Ms. Cullinan was being crass. I understand as a black men at how that racial tension could elevate a situation and in Margaret's effort to quit caused her to break the casserole. I believe I would have also gone to extremes to get out of a uncomfortable situation. If you feel as though you have another opinion let me know in the comment section. When have you made an important choice to either resist or not resist oppression, challenge the status quo, or refuse to obey an authority figure? Well there was a time when I called the police for my aunt's-ex boyfriend because he hit in the back with a television cord. Well it started with a situation at school where I had gotten into an argument in class because of issues that at this time seems trivial. Since I was in that altercation I was assigned detention. Well at the end of the school day i forgot about the penalty because I was in a rush to catch the school bus and get to the house, well when my Aunt's ex came home he told me that i had missed detention and i needed to be punished, so he took a cable cord and stroke me in the back. Since he is not my father or my mother I did not like the neglect I felt in the environment so I called child services. To be honest I felt as though i could have been punished because I didn't show up for detention, because i forgot about it, but not on purpose. Even with my explanation he hit me. I do not like being punished to an extreme so I thought I had to get the police to mediate the situation. |
