While reading The Odyssey, a lesson that can be used today and during

Suzanne Collins, the author of The Hunger Games, imagines a world where people are divided by district just like the real world does with the high, middle, low classes. This book is full of themes, literary devices and also talks about how the government — in this case the Capitol — oppresses their citizens. This book contains many universal messages, but the most prevalent are that if you want to do something, you can do it and the other is that true love is the strongest feeling in all the world

A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry is set in a period where traditional roles of men and women were prevalent in how society functioned.

Imagine this: you are living in a discriminatory world full of people who do not understand you, and choose to judge you by your differences instead of getting to know you. If you are even the slightest bit different. The slightest distance from ordinary, you are judged. You do not get to fight for them to know you, because as soon as they place stereotypes on you. They decide who you are supposed to be. Who you are supposed to fight for. Who you are supposed to fall in love with. In this world,

“We have to free half of the human race, the women, so that they can help to free the other half.”- Emmeline Pankhurst. Pankhurst, a suffragette during the Victorian era in the UK, made the claim that the freedom of all humans is intrinsic to the success of humanity. The protest for freedom for women during the Victorian era was called the New Woman movement. At the core of this movement laid the beliefs that woman should have freedom in both their sexual and career lives. At that time, however,

This gave me hope that they may be more diverse in their toy selections. I started with their gender section; which had two options boys or girls. For the boys’ section I found that there were 17 items just on the

babysitting, dressing, and decorations, while “boy toys” would prefer sports, fighting, and abstract design, perhaps LEGO.

one of the top selling fashion dolls in today’s society. “The Bratz hit the market as the brand that was going to bring tweens back to doll play (Independent Study).” They have gained large amounts of popularity among tweens for their major differences from Barbie dolls. “Bratz dolls are now an archetypal image of girlhood from the 21st century (Independent Study).” They are well known for being the “girls with the passion for fashion (Independent Study).” Each doll represents a different racial background

The Victorian era was filled with rapid change. The changes included the industrial revolution and the colonization of other lands/territories by England.

Lord Tennyson's "The Lady of

Funny Games is a bruised forearm movie (your date seated beside you bruises your forearm by grabbing it too hard because the dude with the oversized chainsaw just completely feminised the hell out of that handsome jock). It is one of the most viscerally assaulting pictures ever produced; a film so utterly subversive in craft that rivals the greats of Hitchcock or Carpenter. “Funny Games” is a masterwork of horror, a film that pierces our minds with stunning imagery, symbolism, dark humour and, implicit

clothes they need to wear, they need to act a certain way, and do the chores that society feels are necessary for them to do.
