Abbe Sieyes born as Emmanuel Joseph Sieyes was a catholic clergyman and a towering figure in the French Revolution. Sieyes was elected a deputy of the Third Estate. The Third Estate meant asking on how the nation could prosper and by that members of this estate had very few rights and little political power. Life became difficult for them and also required to pay 10% to the church which then made it difficult to support their families do to the tax. The third estate was then divided into three groups the bourgeoisie. Marvin Perry explains, “The bourgeoisie consisted of merchant manufacturers, wholesale merchants, bankers, master craftsmen, doctors, lawyers, intellectuals, and government officials (Perry 2014).” They did have wealth but had
Majorie Lee Browne’s personal life reminds me of a story from a friend, Jessica. Jessica’s mother passed away when she was only six years old, that is really young. She grew up without a mother and was raised by her working father; that must have been hard. Jessica probably must have been confused and sad seeing her friends with mothers, but not her. Stereotypically, people who has lost their mother or father, lives a horrible life in depression and negatively. However, she lived for her mother; she thought of her mother to never give up. Jessica’s mother constantly told her to never give up and keep going to live a comfortable life. Jessica, now, graduated from USC and is now practicing to become an ER nurse. It is unbelievable that she can have so much motivation to keep on going, despite the dramatic event that
This meant that they were heavily taxed like the rest of the Third Estate, but many avaided taxes. Some of the bourgeois were envious of the nobility and had resentment towards the First and Second Estates, many against the Ancien Regime and well educated a large proportion of the bourgeois knew of the discoveries happening during the Age of Enlightenment. The Ancien Regime prioritised the people of France in order of Estates, with the King being above all, as a result of the system keeping 97% of the population in one category the system did not satisfy many of the bourgeois of the time resulting in them supporting the revolution.
Why would I want to have a thirty-minute conversation with the now deceased Syracuse Alum and NFL player Jim Brown? Jim Brown is a strong African American male who had lived through different stages of life, someone who acquired great knowledge growing up. Brown was and still is now a hero, someone most athletes look up to, someone who has motivated me after learning about the history of him. He dealt with racism in his lifetime, the transitions from being home with family all his life to the college life. Additionally, Brown was capable of staying on top of his academics, while participating in athletics. Furthermore, I feel as if in a way we are connected, both black males who looked to use football as a way to more opportunities in life,

During the period of the French Revolution, a quest towards gaining a country with equal rights for all, began flourishing. This was influenced by the want for freedom, equality, and independence. Most of the wealth during the French Revolution belonged to the 1st and 2nd estates, otherwise known as the clergy and the nobles, which made up 3% of the population. The 3rd estate, the rest of society, made up 97% of the population. Unfortunately, the people of the third estate did not receive all of the commodities as the first and second estates, and could not say or do anything about it.
Sigurd is more heroic then Gunnar because Sigurd was able to defeat a dragon. Also he accomplished the task of riding through the fire wall surrounding Brunhild’s castle when Gunnar couldn’t do it. Most of Gunnar’s heroic acts were from winning battles in wars. Gunnar would have been heroic like Sigurd if he had accomplished Sigurd’s deeds. This is because being able to ride through a wall of flames and killing a dragon are more impressive heroic acts then winning war battles.

During the 1700s, France’s government was run by a three system estate system. The First Estate was made up by the powerful clergy members, while the Second Estate was made with nobles. Peasants and working men made the Third Estate, also the largest estate. In this large estate there was a little class named the Bourgeoisie was a part of the Third Estate. Though the Bourgeoisie was highly educated and always had stable professions, they were not set aside from the peasants. The Third Estate was treated very poorly during the 1700s. Life was not suitable for the working class. The mistreatment and inequality led to the French Revolution. Inequality during this time period meant that things were not the same throughout each class. Unequal power between the estates, abuse of the Third Estate, and the taxes and price raises were the three reasons that outweighed the many political, social, and economic factors that led to the French Revolution.
“I can’t stand squealers! Hit that guy!” (Albert Anastasia). By the time Albert Anastasia had become known by many people and had taken over Murder Inc., he saw on the television a young Brooklyn salesman by the name of Arnold Schuster and how he bragged about seeing bank robber Willie Sutton and how he was a part of Sutton going to jail. Later, Anastasia had him killed by his men which violated a principal rule: We only kill each other. Outsiders and the general public- Were not to be killed unless the organization was threatened. He killed Schuster because of two reasons, one of them being that Lucky Luciano and Frank Costello were not there to hold him back, and because his killing started to become so promiscuous that he didn’t care anymore,
The First and Second Estate didn’t do nearly as much work for the country as the Third Estate did. This estate consisted of 75% of the country. They were in charge of the distribution of the agricultural products that the country made. As Abbe Sieyes said, “What is the Third Estate? Everything; but an everything shackled and oppressed.” (Abbe Sieyes). The Third Estate is the same as the other Estates, but more poor than them. Abbe Sieyes believed that they deserved more recognition than they ever got. Overall, the First and Second Estate treated the Third Estate terribly, and didn’t give them recognition for their work caused the French

TD Jakes has one amazing thing to say after another. I'm not exaggerating. I can't count the number of aha moments I've had while listening to him. While he is a pastor, you don't need to be religious to benefit from his lessons. What he says makes sense for everyone who wants to become better and happier. His mission is helping people find their purpose and fulfill their destiny, and we can all benefit from that kind of person.
When North East Ohio Medical University sponsored a student led project, BetheBeautifulU was formed. Our campaign’s goal is to expose social media’s negative effect on teenage self-esteem due to its focus on Eurocentric standards of beauty. BetheBeautifulU’s purpose was to confront Cleveland's high school issues with self-esteem hidden within high school culture. We came up with numerous topics, like body positivity, but the one that was deeply anchored in our school was colorism. Colorism in Cleveland school districts and the media perpetuates the idea that lighter skinned people are more beautiful and most accepted compared to dark skin people. During our seminar to promote BetheBeautifulU, we asked
