I Attended The Dignity Initiative Titled In Their Shoes

I would like to volunteer at the ASHA convention to gain professional experience and increase my knowledge on current research. Volunteering at the ASHA convention would be a great experience for me to network with other professionals. I would increase my knowledge on numerous topics that I wouldn't get the chance to be exposure to. I also have experience with volunteering at conventions and assisting in setting up panels.

She begins the story an unfaithful hot mess, and she ends the story an unfaithful hot mess. The only thing that changes is her last name and location, but one could wager that she remains an unfaithful hot mess for the rest of her life, with nobody expecting her to be different because “Charlotte was unusual” (Smith 274). With no reason to change, and no crucible to go through, Charlotte at the end of the story remains as tempestuous and flawed as she was at the beginning. She receives no repercussions for her actions, her boyfriend returns to make her a wife, even after it is revealed that she had been cheating on him with two people. Of course, Maurice wasn’t as faithful as he promised he would be either, but Charlotte seems unperturbed by it. Shame doesn’t touch her, and she goes through no trials other than everyone loving her regardless of her myriad flaws simply because she wears her hair a certain way. The worst thing that happens to her in the story, objectively, is that she loses her trademarked bangs, and even then it doesn’t matter, because hair will grow back, and she will have learned

For the Social Justice Action Project, Britnee and I interviewed college students in the Northeast region who revealed their views on the Black Lives Matter Movement, racial injustice, and racial profiling. We had wanted to inform people of what the Black Lives Matter Movement stood for and tackle some of the myths and misconceptions of what the organization represented. In the process, the interviewees have expressed their feelings of how today’s society is blinded by irrational thinking and biased beliefs. This project have made us realize that people often blame the movement of being inconsiderate to all lives matter, relating the movement to the “armed and dangerous” Black Panthers, and the never-ending issues of police-to-black killings.

Charlotte lied to show Miss Hancock she was no longer the English loving grade seven in fear of being ostracized by her peers if they found out. Lastly, just like her mom, Charlotte began to care about her outer appearance. The new Charlotte wants not to be seen as her “skinny, pimply” (p. 76) self, now wanting people to see as pristine and perfect. This is because her mother’s influence has gotten to her, and now like her mother cares about her looks.

What I found most enlightening about this experience was that what I thought of the meeting was completely different from what it actually is. It was amazing to be in a space where the group members are pouring their hearts out about their experience but also lifting up the ones who are struggling. Despite how different they all are there goal for being in that space was the same, which was to create a supportive environment.

Every minute that passed by, she got more and more upset. Charlotte didn’t want to keep bugging her, but she wanted to help her. Charlotte and Taylor had been very close friends since Charlotte was born. Taylor would always come over to her house and they would play games together. Both of them enjoyed it a lot, but for the past couple months, Taylor had been very stressed and nervous about her Homecoming, because she was nominated for Homecoming queen, and she was behind by a lot of votes. That is why she had been upset all the time. The more she checked, the more anxious she got because she was losing all of the votes. She was also reading all of the bad comments people had sent to

Going to bed that night with the relief that once they go away together she will have him all to herself and release him from the other mistress she claims he had she felt as if she had won. The next morning she receives the news left by her husband that they were leaving to sail the next day. As the day passed, she did not hear any news from her husband nor had he answered any of her calls. As it got dark ,she started to worry and her feeling of hope she had the night before started to slowly slip away. In the story one of the main themes is miscommunication but it isn’t direct since we see Charlotte and Kenneth interact with each other but in this part of the story we see a real communication problem since she isn’t able to reach him.

Throughout the novel, it is apparent the most popular people are the ones with the lowest moral standards. This is evidenced through the negative relationship between Charlotte's declining morals and social ascension. When Charlotte first arrives at Dupont, she is appalled by alcohol and anything related to sex. As the book progresses, however, Charlotte changes. Soon after Charlotte becomes friends with Bettina and Mimi, however, she goes to the frat party where she meets Hoyt. Until this point, Charlotte stayed completely away from alcohol and was could not believe grinding was considered an acceptable thing to do in public. At this party, however, Hoyt easily convinces her to drink wine. After this Charlotte realizes that the more she drinks, the more fun she has, and the more people like her. This became clear less than three months later at the Saint Ray formal when Charlotte gets drunk and has sex with Hoyt, completely going against everything she believed in when she started school.

Charlotte is described as simple, plain, and petite and the daughter of a clergyman just like Jane. Whenever, Charlotte wanted to get away from her daily life, she would absorb herself
