Two mexican-Americans both in distress.Frida Kahlo, a crippled painter born in Mexico, but eventually migrated to America with her husband Diego. Pat Mora, a poet born in texas but grew up in mexican culture.Kahlo and Mora both torn between Mexico and America. Both also expressed how they felt through different variations of art.Kahlo and Mora are more similar than they are different because of setting,mood, and conflict.

This painting, The Woman Grinding Maize, shows what a lot of people feel about work; even though you don’t like it you still have to do it. The woman face expression demonstrates sadness, exhaustion and pain. I can see how she doesn’t have the best job but she still does her job with pride. This painting teaches me that I have to do the best job no matter how much I dislike it and take pride in what I do. Rivera really demonstrates these feelings in the woman grinding the maize, she is looking down with almost seems her to be nearly closed; her back is gloomed hunch backing down. Diego Rivera shaded her face down darker than the rest of her body to emphasize the sadness in her work. So based on all those details I feel as Rivera demonstrated these feeling openly. When I see this painting I see exactly what Diego is showing, the day-to-day life of a working woman.

As Angelou’s essay continues, she writes how she had the opportunity to work in Mrs. Viola Cullinan's kitchen, a white and wealthy woman from Virginia. Angelou was generally curious as Mrs. Cullinan showed her the differences in silverware and plates, but as she continues to write she still seemed jealous. She seemed jealous to the point she was bothered that Mrs. Cullinan could

Oppressed women have been unjustly held back from achieving full equality for much of human history. A woman no matter neither color nor education faces discrimination on a day to day basis. Barriers that are place in their way to advancing includes: lack of mentoring, lack of opportunities for career development, biased rating and testing system and counterproductive behavior and harassment by colleges (Schaefer, pg 15). In the past, women did not have jobs and were to clean, cook and care for the children, also did not have the right to vote. While the man work long hours to provide for his family and gave orders as the women followed. As time went on and rights were given to women, the men did not like the idea that controlled was being lost. They refused to let women become equal to males. Women are allow to work the same career as males, but will never be paid the same as males. This paper addresses Maya Angelou life and how her writing and public speaking inspired women to overcome discrimination.

The popular legend of Joaquin Murrieta is that of a peace loving man driven to seek revenge and equality in the time of the Gold Rush Era. While getting caught up in poverty in his old home land he immigrated to California from Sonora in 1849 in hopes of mining for gold and becoming successfully rich. However,what he encountered instead was extreme racism and strong competition from the individuals at the mining camps. Coming into the 1850s the Mexican/American war was thrust upon the people and Mexicans experienced blatant remarks and criticisms from society. Upon experiencing such behavior Mexicans were forced to take matters into their own hands, which later on, Joaquin Murrieta came to see. Prior to acknowledging this fact, his family had been brutally attacked while mining one day because other miners were becoming

The original college was built in 1866-1867 and was named Western Maryland College, but had its name changed in 2002 to McDaniel College ("History”). There is a long process to name a building, it involves creating a proposal and taking it to the President’s Council and Board of Trustee’s to get approved. After a building receives a name there is also a long list of ways that the buildings get grouped into groups. For example, there are Art buildings; General Use buildings and many more that are available to the students on campus. A building has to be paid for by someone or in memory of someone, there are multiple ways a building can be classified, there are buildings on campus that are named after residents who had lived in them, in memory of people, and even named after presidents. One special building that I had the pleasure of researching was Elderdice Hall, which had been named after Hugh Latimer Elderdice Sr. Elderdice Hall is special to the college because it is made out of completely different brick than any other building on campus. The building houses many essential offices that allow the campus to function, such as the Registrar’s and Bursar’s Offices, and Alumni Relations offices. Mr. Elderdice himself was an interesting man he attended Western Maryland College and later became the President of the Westminister Theological Seminary. He stayed the president until the Westminister Theological Seminary moved to Washington D.C. and became Elderdice Hall. Overall McDaniel College carries a lot of history with each and every brick that was used to build all 70 buildings on the 160-acre campus ("World Ranking

Throughout the essay, Lugo-Lugo wants one to become informed on prevalent issues in the average college classroom by allowing the reader to appeal to her through emotions. She uses personal stories and thoughts on college profiting accordingly to portray the issue amongst her classroom. As she mentions in her essay that her “...position within both U.S. society and academia is an important component of [her] discussion… A woman of color who is a Puerto Rican…. And those markers mean something at the beginning of the twenty-first century in and outside the U.S. academy” (Lugo-Lugo 190). She also describes how her image and identity is automatically judged, “These identities, they inform the way I position myself in relation to other gendered and

One of seven children, Zebulon Reed Brockway was born on April 28, 1827 in Lyme, Connecticut. His father, also named Zebulon, was a wealthy businessman, politician, state prison commissioner, and philanthropist. In his autobiography, Zebulon Brockway refers to his father as a “man of importance in his time and place” (Brockway, 2012, p. 5). Among his father’s specific accomplishments were his service for 13 years as one of the directors of the state prison in Connecticut, and, in the 1850s, his elections to both the Connecticut House of Representatives and the Connecticut State Senate.

Maya Angelou, the current poet laureate of the United States, has become for many people an exemplary role model. She read an original poem at the inauguration of President Clinton; she has also appeared on the television show "Touched by an Angel," and there read another poem of her own composition; she lectures widely, inspiring young people to aim high in life. Yet this is an unlikely beginning for a woman who, by the age of thirty, had been San Francisco's first black streetcar conductor; an unmarried mother; the madam of a San Diego brothel; a prostitute, a showgirl, and an actress (Lichtler, 861927397.html). Her book I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings argues persuasively

All throughout human history, many public figures have stood up against human rights towards both women and men, but not many have impacted society as much as Lucretia Mott, a quaker, who is widely popular for her positions on various politically sensitive subjects at the time, such as civil rights for all races and a feminist as well. Lucretia Mott was one of the most famous civil and women's rights leaders in all of the 1800s, only thanks to her perseverance did many black people were given the right to vote, a right later given to all women thanks only to the efforts and sacrifices done only by Lucretia Mott. First of all, the challenges faced by Lucretia Mott in order for her to achieve her goal were at first spectacularly problematic, with many men and women, even those within her own group and/or her cause, causing conflict with her due to a lack of understanding between both as well as tensions due to their ideology. Lucretia Mott's main goal was to provide economical opportunities to those who were unemployed, women, and people she sought to improve their lives under her civil rights movement policy, who mainly were former and current slaves whom she wanted to be freed from their slave owners.

One of my most favorite artists is the Mexican painter, Frida Kahlo. She was born Magdalena Carmen Frida Kahlo y Calderon in Coyoacan, Mexico, July 6, 1907 and died July 13, 1954. She was one of four daughters born to a Hungarian-Jewish father and a mother of Spanish and Mexican Indian descent. Frida Kahlo is the most famous Mexican woman artist on the contemporary art scene. In 1922, Kahlo hung out with a group of politically and intellectually like-minded students. The Mexican mural movement begins. Frida first learns of Diego Rivera, who is painting his mural "Creation" at the school 's lecture hall. Kahlo becoming a painter, was not a part of Frida 's career goals. Her goal in life was to become a doctor but a tragic accident at age 18 left her mentally and physically scared for life. It changed the course of her life forever. It was during her months of convalescence that Frida began to take painting seriously…"to combat the boredom and pain". she said. "I felt I still had enough energy to do something other than studying to become a doctor. Without giving it any particular thought, I started painting." It was the beginning of a life-long career for Frida.

In conclusion, the change of the Tillman building will be a positive step forward for the community and the world because it would help diminish the obstacle of racial inequality. It would allow for a message that is not contradicting to what Winthrop wants to convey to students and the community, it would be a step towards gaining racial equality, and it would be a positive light unto all the negative situations happening now. A difference can be made here on campus that could lead to even greater changes happening later. Only positive outcomes can come from this change. It is about time for us to make

To David Barton, the biggest race he has won would be The GatorNationals. This was a significant moment to david because it was a start of a new era. In his words, “ To some people winning indie is the biggest thing, but it doesn't compare to the GatorNationals in Florida, because it was the beginning of a new era of muscle cars.” This accomplishment was achieved from experience at Ray Barton Racing engines. In other words, by working in his dad's business. Racing has always been what David does. It’s what he grew up around. David has done this job full time since 16 or 17. This job was also his father's, Ray Barton.
