Aramina Ross is her real/first name but she changed it to Harriet Tubman. Many people know her for the Underground Railroad but she did many other things to help slaves in the Civil War. She was a spy, scout, and nurse. Thats a lot of jobs, isn't it? She worked very hard to stop slavery.

When everyone was not equal, when everyone didn’t care about the other race, and when we weren’t all friends. It's time for us to appreciate her and the things she did in the Civil War. Harriet

Nina Simone was one of the most unique, influential, and gifted singers of her generation. She was born on February 21, 1933 as Eunice Waymon, in Tryon, North Carolina. Her mother was a preacher and she started playing piano at an early age, around 3 or 4 at her mother’s church, as she was playing piano at a local recital she caught the eye of an older white woman willing to give her lessons. Nina went on to studying classical piano for 5 years with the woman, learning the stylings of the classical greats such as Bach, Beethoven, Debussy, and Brahms. As a child she felt so isolated, spending up to 7 hours a day practicing the piano, and growing up in the south in the segregation era, she felt as she could not fit in neither with the white or black community, even when surrounded by other children all they wanted to

In accordance with today’s standards, every serious ballet dancer should have ‘dancing en pointe’ in their repertoire. Yet there was a time when dancing en pointe was a mysterious and mystical practice that one young woman brought on stage for the entirety of a ballet, changing the dance world forever. Marie Taglioni was a trailblazer in many aspects of dance, including technique, style, and costume. Her legacy lives on in the romantic ballets of yesteryear, still performed today for thousands of audiences worldwide.

Another thing the two sonnets share is metaphorical language; it used to imply a comparison between two things that are unrelated but share some common ground. Christina Rossetti establishes an idea of metaphorically remaining “alive” through remembrance. The juxtaposition in line 1, “Remember me” and “gone away” implies that the poet suggests that the memory is the last thing a person has that still ties them to life. Henry Longfellow utilizes metaphorical language when he compares a tangible object to emotions. He includes, “There is a mountain…/that…/displays a cross of snow upon its side. / Such is the cross I wear upon my breast” (lines 9-12). The image of a mountain that bears a cross shape filled with snow manifests an image of the angelic figure going towards heaven. Longfellow purposely used a mountain to further implicate religious ideas; the height of the mountain shows that is closer to heaven because it is going upward. The snow symbolizes the wife and that she is on the peak of the mountain, reaching towards heaven. He wears the pain of the loss of his wife on his chest because she is within his soul.

Joan Didion is an American author who empowered women, expressed her heart breaks and feelings, and also wrote about how it’s like to be a woman in a male dominate world.

(source 3) Didion’s most famous novel is Slouching Towards Bethlehem, which established her reputation as an “essayist” and confirmed her “preoccupation with the forces of disorders.” (source 3) Mrs. Didion is best known for her “lucid prose style and incisive depiction of social unrest and psychological fragmentation,” according to “Brittannca.”

“When I first met the fool he offered me a rose and I declined. I told him, ‘I don’t know you, why would accept a flower from a man I just met?’ He laughed and stubbornly continued his flirtations. I accepted his affection after a while and eventually married this foolish man, but I kept my last name (Cardona)”. After her marriage in April 13, 2028, she eventually moved to Nantes,France to live closer to her husband. A year later, her first daughter, Imogen Mina Cardona, was born.

The speaker in “Remember” has a calm voice evident in the simplicity in the syntax of the poem which is easy to understand starting from the first line, but is increasingly uncertain until it turns commanding. Lines 3 to 8 show the uncertainties of the speaker as they do not know whether or not they will be able to “stay” with the person they are writing the poem to (presumably a beloved someone) or that they will be able to give them advice or “pray”. Yet, the tone takes on a strong personality when the speaker says: “Better by far you should forget and smile/Than that you should remember and be sad” (line 13-14) by this reassuring the recipient that no matter if the speaker dies, it is completely fine if they are forgotten and by this giving the poem a much more lighthearted tone. Unlike “Remember,” the “Cross of Snow” is not a mysterious poem, in fact, Newton Arvin’s biography called Longfellow: His Life and Work states that the poem was actually written to mourn his wife, who died horribly after her dress caught on fire from an ember in the chimney as the couple rested. Although, Longfellow tried to put the fire out, he did so unsuccessfully and in the meantime, burning his own face with scars he covered up with his long beard. Moreover, Longfellow’s wife was kept alive four days in hope of curing her, but at that point no one could help and she died. The poem, therefore, picks up a tone of isolation, emphasized by the cold atmosphere that the wintery scene
