world. Society everywhere is in conspiracy against the manhood of every one of its members."

Pankhurst was considered a radical and was labeled mentally ill along with other suffragettes at the time who faced incarceration for protesting. Her famous quote "deeds not words" was a motto used to further women's voting rights. Today, many people perceive her as a revolutionary and a strategic agitator for promoting civil disobedience as well as lobbying and imprisonments for using militant tactics.

Without her work, it would of taken decades longer for women to gain universal suffrage.

This song's essential meaning is tied to its history. It was written as a protest piece against imperialism and the ban on music in 1980s Iran. Its main message is that a person should do something they believe is right even though an authority has forbade it.

This relates to Emerson's essay because it consists of messages such as being rebellious against traditional culture and rejecting a preordained destiny. ("By order of the Prophet, We ban that boogie sound, Degenerate the faithful, With that crazy Casbah sound")

An example of a self-reliant character is Toph Beifong in Avatar the last Airbender. Although she was born blind, she learned how to use her abilities in earth bending by interacting with nature and animals, not through formal instruction. She wasn't allowed agency over her own life, and her parents kept her a secret from the rest of the world. Due to her circumstances, Toph finds the courage to runs away from home and becomes a teacher to the Avatar. As we follow her journey through self-reliance, as she gets old, she decides to leave society and live in the jungle with nature, peacefully--a master of her element.

She reflects many values of self-reliance such as being a non-conformist to traditional women's societal roles ("The virtue in most request is conformity. Self-reliance is
its aversion. It loves not realities and creators, but names and customs.".), being rebellious, and being iron-willed ("Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string. Accept the place the divine Providence has found
for you; the society of your contemporaries, the connection of events.".).
