“Daughters of liberty” The video of the Daughters of Liberty was very interesting because it shows that women are becoming more independent and trying to fit in with society. The men were known for doing everything like running business and being involved in politics.

That to me is what really shown women empowerment and how committed

“Man loves liberty‚ even if he does not know that he loves it…” José Martí’s word have never rang more true. There never been a more liberty-loving generation than my own‚ and never one that was so far from understanding how to achieve it.

One of the best examples of this amusing writing style of Austen’s is Mr. Elton’s proposal to Emma Woodhouse. The proposal scene is the
