In the story Mrs. Mallard is known to have a heart condition, gently loved ones tell her of her husband's tragic death. She undergoes an internal struggle of freedom vs. love her husband had for her. Welcoming the new freedom completely allowing herself to think of the possibilities of the new life. Suddenly she learns that in fact Mr. Mallard is alive, resulting her death by a sudden cardiac event. I chose this picture because it captures of I believe Mrs. Mallard feels regarding her new "Victory". ]]> 2016-08-25 02:25:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/119733954 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/119738944 Motherly advise on steroids. Do this, but don't do that and you really better not be that. This mother is trying to depart on her daughter the lessons of life becoming a woman. I love Lorelei and Rory's relationship shown in the picture because Lorelei is opposite to the mother in the story, she continuously shows Rory the lessons of life through relating to her point of view and imparts loving correction.]]> 2016-08-25 03:14:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/119738944 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/119967959 In this play there is a murder most foul, the murder of Mr. Wright. The interesting development was the way there was two investigations, one was for physical evidence, the men's investigation, to convict Mrs. Wright and then the women's investigation for the emotional cause. The women even suspect abuse from Mr Wright to Mrs. Wright. Ironically, it was purely an emotional murder. Mrs. Wright saw her bird as her companion and Mr. Wright repression of the vivacious woman Mrs. Wright used to be. Abuse in any form should never be tolerated. I included a powerful image to capture how I felt reading this.]]> 2016-08-26 02:58:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/119967959 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/120986414 This story for me was a great picture of depression. A silent illness that can result to suicide. This is a comparison to Gilman's own life to that of the woman in the story. The woman in the story goes completely insane from her mental illness. She suffers from many of these warning signs....]]> 2016-09-01 01:27:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/120986414 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/121622242 Men are from Mars and women are from Venus. Isn't it funny how perspective can change the outcome to a problem? In this deeper look into the murder investigation of Mr. Wright. The question of the hour is: Why?? Men and women of this era had two trains of thought as to that answer. ]]> 2016-09-05 18:11:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/121622242 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/126142051 Identity is important, it is how we see our own selves. Roots are where we come from. Both shape us to who we become. Hughes wrote this poem to identify himself with other blacks across history I choose this old grandfather tree because my soul is deep like the roots of an old oak tree. Strong. ]]> 2016-09-24 00:44:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/126142051 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/126142248 Standing together, being strong in the face of opposition. McKay was calling the Blacks to stand and fight as one strong unit against the Whites. I chose the image U.S. Army, because they stand united in face of danger everyday. I thought it was a good comparison to McKay's united men.]]> 2016-09-24 00:55:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/126142248 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/131680680 I loved the lesson in "The Lesson". Showing children that they are not define by who or what status they come from, but they can define themselves into what they wish themselves to be. I chose a anti-labeling campaign ad to show, how labeling is still happening in our culture.]]> 2016-10-19 03:09:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/131680680 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/131937400 What a difference a generation makes in the feeling of  ancestry. The narrator "Mama" and her oldest daughter are proud of where they both come from and what they are able to do. I picked "Parents Just Don't Understand" to represent Dee and her mother.]]> 2016-10-19 21:57:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/131937400 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/131938326 A reponse to the cruelity of racism while keeping true to one's own self. Venelope in Wreck It Ralph goes through cruelty, yet in the end always maintaining herself. Fighting for what she believes in.]]> 2016-10-19 22:07:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/131938326 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/131939761 A lesson of how racism affects even children. The children ultimately reflect the very thing they hate. Mean Girls shows a girl becoming the very girl he hates, a mean girl]]> 2016-10-19 22:22:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/131939761 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/136273239 The tragic story of how one man spends his whole life chasing his idea of "the American Dream"  only to give into his suicidal thoughts to pass to his favorite child an inheritance. I chose this image because through out the play there are many signals to the family that Willy is deeply trouble but many of the warning signs go unnoticed or the family tries to swept the signs under the rug. ]]> 2016-11-09 00:37:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/136273239 jessica615 https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/136275157 O'Brien explains in "The Things They Carried" how not only do soldiers carry massive about of physical weight from the equipment and supplies but equal in emotional burdens placed on the soldiers. ]]> 2016-11-09 00:56:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica615/bv03pwft49fc/wish/136275157
