She had a tremendous impact on history. I learned that she was enslaved at a very young age and was beaten by her owner. She affected society by being an advocate for women's rights and African Americans's as well. She affected me by showing me how hard life for not only women, but African American women was. She helps me appreciate the way the world is now. ]]> 2017-10-13 16:11:08 UTC https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196879707 maddyengel88 https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196883504 The triangle shirt-waste fire had a major impact in history. The fire was caused by a cigarette and ended up killing 145 innocent workers. Most of the workers were young women. This event had a big impact because it made companies and people realize how unsafe and unfair the conditions that people worked in. The fire brought attention to safety laws. This event affected me by making schools and work places safer. Without this fire happening there would not be half of the safety laws that are around today. ]]> 2017-10-13 16:19:29 UTC https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196883504 maddyengel88 https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196886397 Ida was one of the most influential people in history. She was an activist for African American rights and women's. She was very involved in the anti-lynching movement. She had her own newspaper where she would talk about the problems that everyone else was too scared to speak out against. She was not afraid to stand up for what she believed in. She had an impact on me because she shows me, along with other young women, that you cannot be scared to stand up for what you believe in. ]]> 2017-10-13 16:25:50 UTC https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196886397 maddyengel88 https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196888574 During the war women had a major impact. Women had to step up and do what men normally did at home. Some women became spies to help advance in the war. I think that is a very important part that they did because no one expected a women to eaves drop on the conversations. Another important thing that women did was they disguised as men in the war so they could participate. This had a major impact on society because the war wouldn't have been the same without women helping out. This had an impact on me by making me realize that without women doing all they had to do in the war, women possibly still wouldn't be able to participating in the war today. These brave women inspire me. ]]> 2017-10-13 16:31:24 UTC https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196888574 maddyengel88 https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196891405 Jane Addams was the first person to set up a settlement house in the United States. She made it able for people to have everything they needed to survive inside the house. There were schools, day-cares, gyms, clubs, bedrooms, soup kitchens, and much more. This promoted that all children go to school and child labor laws were put in place. Jane and the house had a major impact on society, the streets were cleaner and children were safer. This had an impact on me because today there might not be any child labor laws. Jane inspires me to make the community better. ]]> 2017-10-13 16:39:18 UTC https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196891405 maddyengel88 https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196897330 Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott were the most involved women in the convention. During the convention they talked about how there is a NEED for equal rights for all people. This convention had a huge influence on history without this convention the "Declaration of Sentiments" wouldn't have been discussed. This had an impact on me because these women involved in this inspired me to not bite my tongue and "act lady-like", this shows young girls to speak up for what is right. ]]> 2017-10-13 16:53:51 UTC https://padlet.com/maddyengel88/es7hj0vh3s5z/wish/196897330
