KEMAL ATATURK, by Evelin

2021-11-19 04:21:06 UTC

Kemal Ataturk was the first president of Republic of Turkey. He undertook sweeping progressive reforms, which modernized Turkey into a secular, modern, independent and industrializing nation. He was named Mustafa when he born in 1881 in Thessaloniki, Greece, and people gave him the name “Ataturk,” that means “Father of Turkey.”

I admire Ataturk because he said “Today, our most important and most productive task is the national education affairs. We have to be successful in national education affairs and we shall be. The liberation of a nation is only achieved through this way."

He wanted to institute compulsory and free primary education for both girls and boys because at this time as little as 10% of the population was literate. In the summer of 1924, Atatürk invited American educational reformer John Dewey to Ankara to advise him on how to reform Turkish education. Dewey is known as the father of active methodologies, and he found that normal people used took roughly three years to learn to read and write in Turkish using the traditional Arabic script. Then, Ataturk implemented a modified Latin alphabet that could be learned within a few months.  Ataturk was a democrat and believed in woman rights. Women received equal civil and political rights during Atatürk's presidency. In particular, women were given voting rights in local elections in 1930 and a few years later, in 1934, full universal suffrage. Eighteen female MPs joined the Turkish Parliament with the 1935 general elections.

Ataturk has been described “The liberator of modern Turkey.” Kemal Atatürk is commemorated by many memorials throughout Turkey. At 9:05 am on every 10 November, at the exact time of Atatürk's death, most vehicles and people in the country's streets pause for one minute in remembrance.

Magdalena Carmen Frida Kahlo y Calderón or just Frida Kahlo, was an important painter of the 20th century and became famous after doing an exhibition of her works in New York in 1939.

She was born in Mexico City in 1907, she had a very difficult childhood because of health problems, with 18 years old suffered a serious bus accident that left her with numerous problems of locomotion. When she saw herself sick and in bed, she began to paint self-portraits of her problems transforming them into beautiful surrealist arts that over time dominated the world, Next to a phrase where she always said ‘’Piés, para qué los quiero si tengo alas pa' volar?’’

Even today her arts are present in our daily lives, and even after many years of her death, Frida Kahlo lives in the form of beautiful paintings and as inspiration for all women who feel unable to accomplish anything either because of their physical limitations or just because they are women. I really love the paintings of Frida Kahlo, and I tattooed her face on my arm so that every time I look, I remember that just like her, I am and will be a strong woman that I can do anything.
