197 Words1 Page

Yesterday, on December 7, 1941, Japan attacked us on our own soil. They violently assaulted the naval base, Pearl Harbor, bombing it, resulting in the destruction of multiple naval ships, and hundreds upon thousands of deaths and casualties. This defiance against peace will not go unattended, one way or another this will result in war, if it wasn’t already so. Fellow Americans, rise up and rebel against this, and all future opposition than would even dare think of offending our great nation. In the past, we have fought against all odds, to defend what defines our great nation and what we stand for, our rights, our lives, our freedom, and this act of attrition will, if not already threatens all of them. My fellow men and women, like the generations

    On December 6th, 1941, America was a neutral power in what became known as World War Two. The next day, the Japanese Empire attacked Pearl Harbor, one of America’s major naval strongholds in the Pacific. The attack was by surprise and left around 2,100 Americans dead with an additional 2,000 wounded, and decimated America’s naval capability with 18 ships destroyed.

    Thousands of women have screamed at the top of their lungs, clawed at the patriarchy, and tirelessly fought for their rights as citizens of the United States of America. From the beginning of mankind, women have been labeled as inferior to men not only physically, but mentally and intellectually as well. Only in 1920 did women gain the right to voice their opinions in government elections while wealthy white men received the expected right since the creation of the United States. A pioneer in women’s suffrage, Susan B. Anthony publicly spoke out against this hypocrisy in a time when women were only seen as child bearers and household keepers. Using the United State’s very own Constitution and Declaration as ammunition, Anthony wrote countless
