    The revolution released public debates and political and social structures that expanded the scope for freedom. It also challenged inherited structures of power within America. In result of rejecting the principle of hereditary aristocracy, Americans also rejected the society of patronage, privilege, and fixed status. Men who led the revolution from start to finish were considered the most prestigious men of the American Elite. The lower classes however, did not rise to power in result of independence. Nonetheless, Inequality had been fundamental to the colonial social order. The revolution challenged it in many ways, therefore American freedom would be forever linked with the idea of equality. For free white men, the democratization of freedom was dramatic. In the political thought of the eighteenth century the term democracy had several different meanings, one meaning, coming from the writings of Aristotle defines democracy as a system in which he entire people governed directly. In the wake of the Revolution, democracy came into wider use to basically express the aspirations for greater equality.…

Emily Grierson – When she died, the entire town went to her funeral for two reasons. 1: The men went through a short of respectful affection for the fallen monument and 2: the women out of curiosity to see the inside part of Emily’s house. Emily’s boyfriend that soon to be husband left her and she became depressed and stopped taking care of herself and her home. She also stopped paying taxes because she didn’t go out much but stayed mostly inside her house.

    In John Updike’s “A & P” Sammy, the main character of the story encounters three young girls who come into his grocery store. They are dressed for a day at the beach, not shopping. “The one that caught my eye first was the one in the plaid green two-piece. She was a chunky kid, with a good tan and a sweet broad soft-looking can with those two crescents of white just under it, where the sun never seems to hit, at the top of the backs of her legs.” (Updike) Sammy goes on to say the girls are barefoot and in describing another of the girls says the straps on her swimsuit are down. Their apparel gives them some unintended attention. Lengel, the A & P manager, confronts the three girls, reminding them they are not at the beach. The girls try to defend themselves stating the reason they are in the store is to pick up one item for one of the girls’ mothers. Lengel does not care and tells the girls it does not matter why they are in the store but they need to be decent when they came in to do any sort of shopping. Sammy does not like the way Lengel made a scene and embarrassed the girls. He feels he must follow his heart and stand up for the three girls by quitting his job. In my life, exploring the option of homeschooling my three children, I feel there could be unintended negative consequences as well. Weighing the pros and cons of the decision is a heavy task, but in the end I must do what is right for my family despite outside obstacles, just as Sammy had to do what he felt was right. Sadly, doing what is right for you often times is rejected by main stream society and can therefore bring uphill challenges that accompany your decision.…
