Women in the Middle East are only seen as care takers for their family, and nothing more. They cook, they clean, and they take care of children, and they do not get rewarded anything. In fact, they are treated rather poorly, like second-class citizens. They have no rights to education, jobs, being seen without a burqa etc. This quote describes the conflict that Malala Yousafzai goes through to…
One similarity between the two texts is that both are about strong, powerful, and brave women. In the article about Malala it says “She started the Malala Fund to bring awareness to the social and economic impact of girl’s education and to empower girls to raise their voices, to unlock their potential, and to demand change.” This quote tells us that Malala wanted to start something even more powerful than just her speaking out so she made a website so other girls can see what she’s done and be inspired by it. In the Barbara Frietchie poem, the line “A shade of sadness, a blush of shame, over the face of the leader came.” This is showing that from what she did by reaching for the flag out the window made the Stonewall Jackson feel a little ashamed when he shot her since she dies trying to protect her country’s…
The conflicts that these influential people faced were horrendous and unacceptable, yet they continued until they received justice. Although Malala and Dr. King have/had many similar tactics and lived similar lives, they also approached their crusade in different ways.…

Chapter four starts out with an anecdote explaining how Malala’s grandfather did not help out financially with her Woma celebration because she was a girl, not a boy. (Woma being a traditional celebration on the seventh day of a child's life.) Throughout the chapter she starts to notice and disagree with the divide between how women and men are treated, especially in rural areas, such as her family's village. When Malala goes to the village, all of the women cook food for the men and take care of children, that's all anyone believes they are good for. “My mother and I stayed in the women's quarters downstairs.…
Within shipwreck at the bottom of the world Shackleton was quite a resilient captain towards the disasters he and his crew had went through. All had shown how dangerous it is not only going alone on an expedition but with multiple people. Shackleton had fought with Mcneish not always by speech but only on rare occasions physically. He was actually scared during those long painful days but he had not shown it towards his crew so that there was hope for getting back to their homes. Always did he cheer them up and keeping them active so that the crew would not just freeze to death, but to keep each other fit for the long journey home. Throughout the journey Shackleton and his crew has lived on the ocean and survived for many weeks on both boats and also broken off…
Sojourner Truth in her speech, "Ain't I a Woman?" demonstrates that she's tired of inequality and fights for women's rights by having comebacks to the white men that don't think negro women like herself should have rights.

Sojourner and Malala both express defiance against the law, show persistence for what they are fighting for, and fought morally for women's rights.…
To go further in depth, a much known figure, Malala, fought for female education, because she was successful with her matter she was targeted by brutal people. The fact that Malala stood by her opinion on female education was more impactful because she was surrounded by contradicting arguments. We also see situations of public education here in the US but because we are more open-minded to change, it is acknowledged more .In other places like the Middle East,they’re so used to the way the roles are set up, that most won't stand up for change because many believe they’ve already lost. Malala taking a stand made her a well-known figure and inspired people to stand by their…
Malala's speech to the U.N had the purpose of informing the council about what was going on in the middle east from the perspective of someone who has lived through that situation. Her goal for the informing side of the argument is to show that girls are oppressed and they have the right not to be. She is also trying to persuade them to help with the situation that she is dealing with in the middle east. She uses the story of how and when she got shot in the face by the Taliban. She shows how she is a good person by stating “I do not hate the Talib who shot me. Even if there was a gun in my hand and he stands in front of me. I would not shoot him”. Her story is told because she wants us to know that even though the Taliban shot her, she will not back down from standing up for women's…
President Obama and Malala Yousafzai both share the central idea of equality for all humans. Both President Obama and Malala presented speeches about equality, but stated their ideas differently. President Obama’s 2nd Inaugural speech was before the Chief Justice, Members of the United States Congress, special guests and fellow citizens. Malala spoke before the UN Secretary, General Mr. Ban K-Moon, President General Assembly Vic Jermic, the UN envoy for Global Education Mr. Gordon Brown, and other special guests.

Firstly, Malala got shot, she continued searching for women’s right, and she never gave up. She was the youngest individual who succeeded and won The Noble Prize. As for Iqbal, he found a way to join a freedom carnival held by the Brick Layer Unions where he started using his efficient personality to speak on behalf of the slaved labors. Malala began to classify plans to originate an association to discover ways to make it easier for girls to accomplish their educational dreams. “ I don’t mind if I have to sit on the floor at school. All I want is education. And I’m afraid of no one.” (Malala, 2013, pg3). Although With such bravery, Malala was able to achieve many things that adults were afraid of achieving. Yousafzai spoke publicly for the rights of children and women. On the other hand, Iqbal is a legend who slipped into workshops and began examining the kids about their experiences and if they were slaves. Moreover, he taught the slaved workers and encouraged them to escape. He also created awareness and encouraged education so that others could defend for their rights and end the inequality in factories around the globe. Even though Iqbal was afraid from being murdered by the Mafias, he insisted on speaking against the mafia’s performs with self-confidence and…
After reading Jimmy Carter 's essay on assault weapons, I have come to an agreement with his position that the government should reinstate a ban on assault weapons. Americans do not need to be in possession of semiautomatic assault weapons like AK-47, AR-15,and Uzis. There is rarely a necessity for the average American to even use or own them.…

When someone is inevitably dying and in inexplicable pain is it really a crime to grant their wishes and end their suffering? As of right now euthanasia is illegal in many countries and is a very controversial topic. Is it compassion for the patient helping them in ending their life or murder? The doctor is not giving death as an option, it is the patients choice and even where it is legal there are many rules. Euthanasia should not be considered a crime because the patient is not being murdered; they are having their suffering end in a painless, humane way out of compassion for the patient and their family.…
