Gender can happen in the real world which can lead to personal experiences. I have experienced some gender inequality throughout my life and have had family situations since I have been alive. For instance, my parents lived in a time where men went to work and the women had to clean, cook, and stuff around the house. I have experienced some problems myself by my brother and I having to do outside yard work while my sister only does inside work. She claims that yard work is “for men and it’s a man 's job.”. What I have to say about that is that men and women don 't need to do work based off if it is a man or woman’s job, work is work and you shouldn’t base it off gender inequality. Another situation I was faced with was when my mom was trying to get a job, she was trying to get a job at selling Tupperware. She was faced with “you can’t sell Tupperware because you are a woman and people don 't buy stuff off of women.”. She sticked with her gut and went for it, now she is very successful in her business and doesn’t let what a guy said to her stop her.

The first concept is how Junior has a disability, and being on the reservation affects his daily life on a regular basis. Junior gets made fun of constantly, bullied, and harassed because he is not considered the same as the others. Junior found a way to cope with all of the events happening in his life, and drew his feelings. Another concept from the book is Junior left the reservation because of all the bullying and attended Reardan High School. Junior took initiative to better his education because he did not want to have to deal with his classmates on the

My artifact for this paper is the book Les Misérables by Victor Hugo. This artifact is important because within the book there are stories of numerous characters that tell people how they should love their lives. Les Misérables and the key take away messages Hugo vividly describes through his character’s struggles and triumphs are all equipment for living. Specifically, Les Misérables teaches its readers about the need for equality within a society by exposing what it is like to live in an unjust society (the poor are the target of abuse and manipulation). Hugo attempts to teach the audience of the faults of having a society with an extreme hierarchy in an attempt to create better societies (hierarchy and inequalities lead to the poor being suppressed, famine, unhappy lives,
