Madeleine Albright

own words, Ms. Albright said: “it was the little things, whenever I raised my hand in meetings, men would always say ‘don’t be so emotional’, or would drum their fingers on the table and say I was taking too long to make decisions” (Walsh, 2016).

In the aftermath of November thirteenth’s attacks on Paris, here has been much debate surrounding Syrian refugees, and the United States commitment to taking in ten thousand displaced refugees during the next year. Most of the nation’s governors and politicians say that the Syrian refugees pose immense security threats and argue that America should close its borders to them.

Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter share similar themes about internal conflict. In The Crucible and “Scarlet..” the heroines both uphold forms of feminism. Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright expresses, “It took me quite a long time to develop a voice, and now that I have it, I am not going to be silent”(Albright).

For example, the travel ban could directly cause conflict between us and other nations. In a letter addressed to New York Times, 134 experts, including former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright argues that the new travel ban “tells Muslims that the United States is a enemy of Islam” (Seipel, Brooke).
