While Kathy had been able to establish herself and move progressively forward there were still those openly discriminatory toward homosexuals. She was concerned that people would see her personal involvement with No on Knight as a corporate endorsement.

It seems that the seniors felt attacked by Frankie and no longer wanted to associate with her. Frankie’s name became more well known to her peers and she was praised for her performance in the pranks. It seems that the Debate and Geek club saw Frankie as a strong person who’s not afraid of creating a change and making things happen. These students suddenly wanted to hang out with Frankie after seeing her abilities of controlling a secret organization and later confessing to her “wrong-doings”. Frankie gained respect and was no longer viewed as an ordinary person but rather someone who gets her way.

In the beginning of the article, the author utilizes parallelism to compare her own father to Frank Sinatra. She claims that she “liked how [Sinatra] was Sicilian as many of [her] father’s friends and clients were” (Simon 1). However, Simon does admit that “he was a pug like Frankie” in that both were unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered (Simon 1). Both resorted to a physical means in order to resolve their differences. Sinatra reminds Simon of her father, and in such a way that allows her to admire him while she struggles with her uncertainty on whether or not she likes him.

Conflict was one of the many elements Chiger used to express the families’ experiences during the holocaust; for example she used man versus nature to express the families against the sewer conditions, man versus society to show how they had to go against Nazi Germany because of their religion, and man versus self to show how she, as a seven year old girl, had to go against her own mind because of the persecutions, pogroms, assassinations, etc. she had experienced. Krystyna was experiencing man versus self during a part in the book when she felt melancholy and was noncommunicative; to explain this further, “I could be philosophical at times...I was not self-aware… I could not put what I was feeling into words. I would not even try” (Chiger 222). Conflict, one of the major literary elements, is used a lot in The Girl in the Green Sweater; it is used to

No one would had imagined a woman governing over Texas, a state ruled by conservative white cowboys. Ann Richards was the second woman to become the Lieutenant Governor of Texas in 1990. She became the hero of minorities, woman, gay men, and lesbians, and worked for a “New Texas” where opportunities and power would be given to those groups. Ann Richards is known as the most efficient person in a line of long Texas progressives who fought for control over Texas when the state was a “Democratic Stronghold”. Her loss against Gorge W. Bush after her first term as governor, was a strong indication that the generations of Democrats ruling Texas had ended.

Her mom tries to make an attempt to talk her out of this by stating, “I wouldn’t worry too much. Lots of adolescents experiment with same-sex play. That doesn’t make you homosexual. But please don’t let it get in the way of a normal relationship.” Her mother doesn’t like the picture that having a lesbian daughter will paint. Cara knows that her mom thinks her sexuality will stain her mother’s name. To this Cara responds, “I’ve fought the ‘who’ of me for years. I wanted you to know the truth, but if you’re not mature enough to handle it, I don’t care. This is who I am- Straight-A, top of my class, Stanford-bound lesbian.” This is

Rosa Parks, a very important and influential black woman in history. When a student is learning about Blacks fighting for equal rights, it is almost certain that the name “Rosa Parks” will be mentioned. The story that students are taught is that she was a quiet woman who had had enough and refused to give up her seat on the bus, which is not entirely true. Yes, Ms. Parks refused to give up her seat to a white man because she was sick and tired of being treated in such a horrible way, but she was not as quiet as everyone was taught to believe. Some might even say that history got the great Rosa Parks story wrong. An author by the name of Jeanne Theoharis definitely agrees to that. She agrees strongly that she wrote an article titled “How History Got the Rosa Parks Story Wrong”.

A conflicts occurs when she engages in this change because of her uncomfortableness with structure. While experimenting her new lifestyle, she goes to a room with all the walls are white and decides to live there; the white walls a demonstrate a fresh new start, which is exactly what she intends to do. Godwins states "She tried these personalities on like costumes, then discarded them."

She wants a life she is in control but does not want to conform to a structured lifestyle which can possibly lead her to the destruction of her and her family.
