Shaker Heights

Donovan Jacobs was the son of Theodore and Amitra Jacobs, the best lawyers in all of Cincinnati. Hell, they were the best lawyers in all of Ohio. They lived in the richest neighbourhood, sent their son to the leading private school, Hathaway Brown School, and made sure his grades were fine enough to get him into Harvard Law easy peasy, lemon squeezy. Donovan was a guy every girl wanted. He was tall, he was athletic, he was easy going, fun, and adventurous. He also had a charming laugh and an olive

religious movements during that time period I would love to tell you about, they are, the birth Shakers and the Pleasant Hill Community, the birth of Mormons with Joseph Smith, and the story of “How the American Revolution Agreed to Differ over Religion”. I hope you find these topics as important and interesting as I do. In 1774 Mother Ann Lee founded a utopian society in Europe, later to be known as Shakers (Shaker Presentation). Immediately after her founding she moved to America in order to escape religious

Groups like the Shakers try to plan out society. Their founders create rules that are designed to control how people will conduct their lives. They often try to reinforce the authority of their precepts by withdrawing, often physically, from mainstream society. Despite these efforts, these movements always retain connections to the wider world, unplanned and complex as it is. This inability to entirely remove themselves from the larger society makes it impossible for groups like the Shakers to live exactly

Shaker Communities During the 1800’s many utopian societies sprouted in the United States. Most of these societies blossomed and faded quite quickly, but one group did not fade away like the others. This society successfully combined their faith with the reasoning of the changing times and kept their communities going strong. They are or known as the Shakers, or more formally as the members of the United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing. The Shakers were inventors and thinkers

marriage. These utopian societies were the Shakers, the Oneida community, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, more commonly known as the Mormons. These three groups were all inspired by radical Christian notions of “human perfectibility”, but other experiments existed that based their lifestyles off of more secular ideas. The most famous of these secular experiments was Brook Farm, founded in Roxbury, Massachusetts in 1841. The Shakers represented one end of the spectrum for these

The Shakers, a utopian religious community prominent during the Enlightenment period (mid-1700’s), gathered together with a vision of radical equality during a time when there was none. Throughout history, there have been many attempts at creating this sought-after perfect utopian society; however, all those attempts have inevitably ended in dystopias and there have been very few that have succeeded. In comparison to the archetypical utopian society that was usually complete with stereotypical gender

An age of reform swept through our nation due to the unfairness that was happening in our country. Many people fought for change for themselves and for others that involved problems like alcohol and humane treatment for the insane. The radicals did their best for what they thought was right and changed our country for the better. There were costs and benefits to many movements, groups, and radical individuals who sought change between 1840 and 1877. They created conflict, chaos, and changes that

In the late 1960’s the right to vote, freedom of speech, fair and equal treatment movement happened in America, blacks were being discriminated and separated because of their race and religion. The “Sexual Revolution” social movement was also going on, that strained traditional codes of behavior related to sexuality and between people’s relationships. Women were fighting for their rights and state where all things are equal. When Richard Nixon the president of the Unite States bombed Vietnam all

Shakers were a religious sect, founded in the 18th Century in England, having branched off from a Quaker community. They were known as the “Shaking Quakers” due to their ecstatic behaviour during worship services. Since the late Eighteenth Century, Shakers exerted an influence disproportionate to the size of their communities. Their approach helped shape everything in terms of craftsmanship and ingenuity. The innovative spirit they brought to simply, Godly living is indeed the most timeless aspect

This is a very creative game, using salt and pepper shakers in a way similar to the game pieces in the board game Sorry. Using the salt and pepper shakers was a novel solution to dealing with the boredom that comes with waiting for dessert, however, my sisters had to use convergent thinking in order to figure out the most effective way to use these shakers in order to maximize the amount of fun they could get from those salt and pepper shakers. This is when their hypothetico-deductive reasoning came
