Reflection

__ Reflection __ After finishing our wikispace I think that one of the main things I found interesting was writing the letter to my grandchild. I think that this was really interesting due to the fact that I had to put myself in the place of a woman who lived through the 1950's and 60's. I thought that this was really interesting because of how different the 1950's and 60's were for women and their place in society. During the 50's women were expected to be the stay at home wife and mother whose purpose in life was to care for her family. On the other hand, during the 60's women were starting to take a stand for their equal rights and making organizations that helped them gain these rights. I think that it must have been very hard living in the 50's and 60's because of the changes women were making during the 60's.  Another aspect of the project that I found really interesting was the comic clip and the quotes. I think that the quotes were really significant and would be something that I would want to show my grandchildren someday. Several of the quotes dealt with how it can be considered a sin to sit back and watch while other people are not given their equal rights they deserved. Despite the fact that Abraham Lincoln was not alive during the 1940's and up to today, his quotes were still relevant because he fought for the end of slavery. I think that these quotes are very inspirational and directly connected to our Equality wikispace.
