    The book, Shays' Rebellion: The Making of an Agrarian Insurrection, is a historical account that provides an interesting perspective on the accounts of many struggling men, earning wages in the agricultural force, who were driven to form a rebellion against the government and the court system, because of a crisis of debt and credit that struck after the Revolutionary War in the years from1786 to 1787. The text as a whole provides a good analysis on the subject at hand and achieves its goal to the reader. The source would be helpful to those who already have an understanding about this period in history; however, because of the lack of a decent timeline, for those who are new to Shay’s Rebellion, the book may be hard to follow. There is good evidence provided in the text to support his ideas, and from my knowledge on the subject I agree with these ideas. Author Szatmary, takes the stance that Shay’s Rebellion was an ironic, three-stage occurrence that just so happened to be one of the crucial factors leading to the formation of the United States Constitution.…

    A shout for freedom can be heard across the world. Everywhere hands are raised in violence in protest for one's freedom. Much of the world has been denied of their freedom such as religion, opinion, and speech. These freedoms are often taken for granted, but they are more so often taken away. Martin luther’s “I have a dream”, Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 , and Azar Nafisi’s “From reading lolita in tehran” all demonstrate the silent struggle and demand for freedom.…

    There is the protagonist, Helene, and the innocent bystander in the plot, the black woman on the train. Both of these characters are being discriminated upon by the antagonist, society and the members within society. There are other elements in the short scene, such as conflicts between characters, for example, the men on the train stop, and a character foil between Helene and the black woman. All of these elements portray colored people’s actions, how they were perceived, and how they were treated during a time where racism was to a small extent, but was still included in the daily lives of members of…

    I think that the development of the paragraphs is done in a very fluid manner. The writer starts small using his own experience in regards to civil disobedience, and his thoughts on seemingly just laws. He then gradually introduces new ideas that eventually unfold into the bigger picture of civil disobedience in early society as a…

    Her story begins as a child, before the revolution. She grew up in a very liberal home. Both parents were very intellectual. Her mother was forced to marry, therefore could not attend college and her father was a deputy minister working under the popular government of Prime Mister Mohammad Mossadegh. She grew up in a special household where her parents did not treat her or her brother different. They met their attention, affection, and discipline equally. She was raised thinking this was a perfectly normal environment when in reality, in most Iranian households it was the male children that enjoyed an exalted status, female relatives spoiled them, and their rebellion was overlooked or praised. As children grew older the boys’ privileges expanded while the girls’ lessened so they remained “honorable and well-bred”.…

    This sudden shift in cultural values causes both authors to reflect on their own values and assumptions while simultaneously surveying their environment. Douglass’s bewilderment is evident when he states, “I had very strangely supposed, while in slavery, that few of the comforts, and scarcely any of the luxuries, of life were enjoyed at the north, compared with what were enjoyed by the slaveholders of the south.” Douglass is perplexed when he discovers wealth and prosperity in the north despite the absence of slaveholding. During Douglass’s time in Maryland, he acquired the opinion that slavery was the sole source of wealth and that in its absence only poverty should be expected. Both Douglass’s and Ali’s childhood has conditioned them to form certain beliefs which is why when Ayaan enters Germany she is also taken aback specifically by the condition of women there. Ali states, “The women were bare – they seemed naked – their legs, their whole arms, their faces and hair and shoulders we all completely uncovered.” Since birth, Ali has been conditioned to believe that she must cover her body or it would cause “fitna” and lead to chaos amongst men. Her discovery of a civil society where women can dress as they please disproves all the lectures she has received her entire life. The dehumanization of women in Ali’s childhood environment forced her to only…

    My favorite passage takes place after she gets in trouble for not wearing her scarf correctly. She states, "I want to argue. I feel like a child, defiant, but powerless. Burning with injustice, but also with a hint of shame. I do as I am told, feeling acutely conscious of the bare skin I am covering". I like this passage because you can really understand how she is feeling, and how difficult it is for her to adjust to two different life styles. Some of my friends from a Muslim country said “she should learn both culture in order to understand them. It is not hot to wear hijab when you are born and raised in Muslim society. It’s for to wear hijab because she didn’t practice her original culture. She was more western nice.”…
