<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">In 1866 the <a href="https://www.christiansburginstitute.com/" target="_blank">Christiansburg Institute</a> was founded
into a school for the formerly enslaved and throughout the years has turned
into a memorial for its black history. This Institute is one historical piece
for black history and crucial to the development of the education system during
this time. The Christiansburg institute has not only a lot of history but is
still making history today by teaching people racial justice, sharing its history
and even hosting tours and raising money for remodeling.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The </span><a href="https://www.colorsvamag.com/2020/02/03/christiansburg-institute/"><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">Christiansburg
Institute</span></a><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"> is a very
powerful place in defining equality and education during its time. The
institute started in 1866, a year after the Civil War ended. The founder of the
Christiansburg Institute was Captain Charles S. Schaeffer who built this school
to educate former slaves. Schaeffer, a union soldier and a Minister from
Philadelphia who came down to Virginia and started schooling 12 former slaves.
He started this institute in a rented house called The Hill School and in three
years after being founded, the school had over two hundred students. Over the
years, the name of this establishment changed from The Hill School to what is
now known as, Christiansburg Institute.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In the year 1869, which was a special year for
this institute, Booker T. Washington caught wind of its successes and became an
advisor for the Christiansburg Institute. Soon after, Washington started to
integrate a similar curriculum into this Institute from the Tuskegee institute
that he founded, creating a stronger education system for its students. Because
of this, the Christiansburg institute started evolving into a well-known school
and by 1897, Edgar A. Long, a close friend of Washington’s, started to work for
the institute as a teacher. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">Throughout
the years, Long became the principal and served for 17 years. With Washington
as its founder and Long as the school's leader, this institute started to
thrive and spread equality and safety among its students. In 1947, the
Institute expanded, now educating people in 15 surrounding counties. By 1966,
the Christiansburg Institute came to an end and closed due to public school
integration and the Friends Freedman Association deed to the property.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">Christiansburg Institute</span><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"> is in
Christiansburg Virginia. The institute may have been originally meant to teach
formerly enslaved African Americas, but it began to help the people who wanted
to teach others when they may not have had the individuals or the facilities.
The main goal was to help prepare the freed slaves, so they were able to
understand more out in the world and set them up for success during an
oppressing time, especially since it was hard for freed slaves to get an
education. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">When the
Christiansburg Institute shut down in 1966, the Institute was formed again
years later to renovate, restore and develop the institute into a building for
remembrance and historical teaching. Now, the building is a place to show and
teach people racial justice, about the history of the institute and to promote
education. They do this by taking you on tours of the building and the Smokehouse
Museum and even in class presentations such as Community learning center. The
reason they provide all these opportunities to teach individuals and show them
about the purpose of the institution by explaining all the history and
artifacts that come with it, including the people involved as well as black
history.</span></p><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"><div><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYYQnXlEKLssus-enx0JBM1PND3JxEJ3VmXm9J35Q7lGicijV7QA7QPt5VObFx6olY0gehXLkHlucuZN6VDmP4Nl_3Vt5QPO-y-z-2g-uA6T2EzmC8cQdqFwcRbiAy8RUKa_Ju-c3_VIio/s4032/IMG_0991.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYYQnXlEKLssus-enx0JBM1PND3JxEJ3VmXm9J35Q7lGicijV7QA7QPt5VObFx6olY0gehXLkHlucuZN6VDmP4Nl_3Vt5QPO-y-z-2g-uA6T2EzmC8cQdqFwcRbiAy8RUKa_Ju-c3_VIio/s320/IMG_0991.HEIC" width="320" /></a></div></div>Today, this

Debbie Sherman-Lee, she works with four staff members and three interns. They
also host a lot of events such as Juneteenth and Healing and Justice Gathering.
Most of these events are funded by grants from the Virginia Foundation for the
humanities. They are also up to date with social media such as twitter, donate
now, and Facebook. The Christiansburg institute is also taking precaution
during the COVID-19 outbreak and if you were to want to take a tour or just
visit the tour guides are required to wear a mask and stay socially distant. If
you decide to take a tour or visit you are required to wear a mask also, if you
don't have one then they will provide one for you. <o:p></o:p></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">Before the
county of Christiansburg became an institute for freed slaves, the town itself
was visited by Confederate leaders like T. “Stonewall” Jackson and J.E.B
Stuart. Over the past 64 years of history created inside the Institute,
unfortunately, the building started to erode and decay causing only one last
remaining structure from the original Christiansburg Institute campus that
stands today. The last remains were named after Edgar A. Long, the principal in
the institute. Because of what little remains, the building is on the listing

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.heydays.ws/?where=authors&author=Nellie%20Wong">When I Was Growing Up</a> is a poem by <a href="https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/nellie-wong">Nellie Wong</a> that tackles her earlier feelings with race. Like many people during their youth, Wong constantly compared herself to the images and displays around her. There was little Asian representation within the media, especially for those with darker skin. Wong explains the pressure she felt to act and to be a white person. She constantly tried to change herself to become the ideal white woman. Wong goes on to say how she saw women in the media who had “blonde hair, white skin, and sensuous lips.” As she grew older, Wong felt out of place from society and as if her ethnicity was the opposite of American.<br /><br /> When reading this poem, many of her experiences felt like my own. Euro-centric beauty was always the forefront of this society and unless I was in a predominantly black space, I never saw any different. The perceptive my mother gave me as beautiful and the “American Woman” versus the one shown throughout the world confused me. I was never the prettiest one in the room so doubled with that and my strong black features, self-hatred came easy. My negro nose, big eyebrows, and deep voice were all unwanted by boys and girls alike.<br /><br /> I went over this poem about four times and each read hurt more than the one before. Knowing my own issues, I felt for Wong and wished none of these emotions were experienced by her. She described herself as being dirty because of her race and describes the Asian slums. I feel her situation made mine look childish because I had little things that she did not. I had Bratz dolls, whose features resembled mine. It’s very upsetting that Nellie felt this way, America the “Land of the Free” didn’t welcome her with open arms, but rather ones she had to claw open. As women, it is terribly difficult to get away from the idea that you are expected to look a certain way, it’s in commercials, magazines and movies. Wong also discusses her shame towards men of her ethnicity and how honored she felt when white men would ask her on dates, feeling as if she upheld the reputation of the “oriental chick”. Living in America, women of every color and race should not have to try to act or look like the perfect woman. Media elevates this issues and in my opinion, shows the truth of how ugly American can truly be.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The plan was to spend 10 minutes reading the names of students, faculty, staff, and community members killed in school shootings from Columbine to Parkland. That list, ten pages long, however, took nearly 30 minutes to read. (The names, locations, and dates that we read today appear below the photos). </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Women's studies Club, NextGen, and RU Young Democrats would like to thank everybody who participated today, and we remind you all to register and VOTE in November. </span><div>

With the recent events of the Trump “P***y Gate” debacle, and an event that I recently attended on campus I thought the topic of rape jokes and the trivialization of rape and the harm it does to not only women but also men will be the topic of my rant. When we joke about rape and sexual assault, we not only make it harder for victims to come forward out of fear of being judged and the victims are not taken seriously in most cases, but it also contributes to the societal view that when a woman is victimized by a man, the man is just doing what nature dictates and therefore cannot and should not be punished.<br /><br />I recently went to an event on campus that did a viewing of a documentary “Killing Me Softly” that was about how the media portrays women as sexual props to appeal to men. At the very beginning of the event the moderators explicitly announced that they recognize that 10% of rape victims are men (http://www.rainn.org/statistics/scope-problem)<a href="https://medium.com/@nprice7/locker-room-talk-537dcc2a3759#_ftn1">[1]</a> and that the audience is well aware that all men do not assault and/or rape women. There was an open forum afterwards with survey questions that could be texted in anonymously for the moderator to discuss. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At first the audience of about 60 people texted or responded with legitimate and respectful answers, however that changed when the answers that were texted in became “funny”. Some of the answers at first were “R.I.P Harambe” or “Hillary was responsible for 9/11” but then the answers got incredible crass and even threatening, “Women disgust me with their whining”, “I wish rape WAS legal” the phrase “This is stupid/dumb/pointless” as a top answer. Men were laughing at women who expressed their fears to go out at night...the men acted indignant towards the women of the room who did not want to be repeatedly catcalled just walking around campus. Calling themselves “Representatives for men” they said men do not act or think the way they thought the discussion was trying to portray them. The rape culture was being exaggerated even though they were shooting themselves in the foot with the results of the survey answers (shown on the projector screen)...which displayed degrading slurs and disrespectful comments about the women through the cell phone survey for all to see. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Not being able to stand the mockery that was directed toward women in the audience I stood up. With my boiling rage, I made known that [a] man ... raped me when I was sixteen and ... I was sexually assaulted by [another man] at work. The comments people were sending in for the survey believed they were funny and the energy of the people in the room proved why we need to have discussions about sexual assault. The psychological trauma every woman has gone through including myself was just another matter to kid around about. Some people clapped with respect and others scoffed. There was no more laughter or ridicule of people trying to talk about actions to prevent sexual assault. There was one last comment sent in that will forever be ingrained in my mind and already tattered soul; “third times a charm” [sic].<br /><br />In Emily Buchwald's book “Transforming a Rape Culture”<a href="https://medium.com/@nprice7/locker-room-talk-537dcc2a3759#_ftn2">[2]</a> she talks about how when a society normalizes sexualized violence, we are essentially accepting and creating rape culture. One the national average 1 in 6 women will be sexually assaulted and that number is even higher on a college campus with 1 in 5 women will be sexually assaulted<a href="https://medium.com/@nprice7/locker-room-talk-537dcc2a3759#_ftn3">[3]</a>. Only 10% of is rape is reported and it is the most unreported crime in the world. When society blames the victims, the actually victims of sexual assault believe they deserved or brought about being attacked. When I was being questioned by the police, I was asked what was I wearing, was I under the influence, did I give any indication that I was being flirtatious. I was the reason for my rape and sexual assault, not my attacker. How can we rationalize that rape is funny or when it’s a conversation casually being talked about, it is perfectly normal? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In a patriarchal society rape isn’t seen as a crime that someone should be put in prison for life even though the women and men affected will never have a sense of security every again walking home at night. They will always have feelings of distrust in their heart if the survivor wants to share a romantic relationship. Survivors of rape and sexual assault do not find rape jokes funny, we are appalled and it’s harder for us to move forward towards healing and to feel safe. This is not fair to the anyone because men who respect women will still be looked upon with wariness and suspicion for a crime they have not committed. When we see and hear rape jokes and excuse given that it’s normal, we believe it’s normal, that men really do talk about women as sexual props and that they can do whatever they please, when in reality it is not. If you don’t want to be seen or viewed as a rapist don’t make rape jokes, it’s that simple.<br /><br /><a href="https://medium.com/@nprice7/locker-room-talk-537dcc2a3759#_ftnref1">[1]</a> (Scope of the Problem: Statistics, 2016)<br /><br /><a href="https://medium.com/@nprice7/locker-room-talk-537dcc2a3759#_ftnref2">[2]</a> Buchwald, Emilie, Pamela R.

**************</div>
<br />Throughout the week I have read and understood what it really was like for women back in the “glory days” of the 1970’s and 80’s. I always associated the latter half of the 1900’s to be a time in which society improved and life was easy, although all I really have seen about this era is through movies like Grease and Sixteen Candles. However, it is not only me glorifying the 70’s and 80’s, if you ask anyone what era they would live in or go back to, I bet a good majority would say that “The 80’s was where it was at”, but was it really? From my reading and discussions, I can safely assume that the 70’s and 80’s were actually not where “it was at”, not for women anyway. <br /><br /> <br /><br />A fantastic article called<a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/533b171fe4b0c551757d9ba3/t/5378fc7ae4b07d0c6bf661af/1400437882246/2000_day-without-feminism.pdf" target="_blank"> “A Day Without Feminism”</a> written by Jennifer Baumgardner and Amy Richards really brought forward the trials and tribulations women had to face on a daily basis in 1970, the start of a decade that would change women and their rights for forever. In this article it gave facts like if a girl in high school “got herself pregnant”, as if it doesn’t take two, she would get kicked out of the National Honor Society and expelled from school. The rule about getting kicked out of the National Honor Society was only changed within the turn of the century. <br /><br /> <br /><br />In this era women were contradictory beings, in many professions deemed appropriate for women sex appeal was a requirement, however if they got pregnant or even married they would be fired or demoted. For example, if a female teacher was pregnant she would be fired due to the notion that “children were not to know that women had sex”. Yet, they were the objects of sexual allure and appeal. A man in power at the woman’s place of work could demand a blowjob and call her pet names and the woman would either have to quit or comply to their sexual demands, because back then sexual harassment did not exist. <br /><br /><br /> Much like in the introduction of the book <i><a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=8FWTZTkKKUkC&pg=PT25&dq=The+House+on+Mango+Street&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi0xanbvJXPAhVp74MKHTueC2IQ6AEIRjAG#v=onepage&q=The%20House%20on%20Mango%20Street&f=false" target="_blank">The House on Mango Street </a></i>by Sandra Cisneros, Sandra explicitly says that she listens to the men in authority because they are like her father, men who believe that she should stay at home and wait to be married than to go on and further her career. Her father always asked her “Why are you doing this?” after all, he did work hard to give her a house with a proper heating system to live in until another man claimed her. Even in the 1980’s after the feminists protests that made the news and are now in history books, women are still treated as property, like Edna Pontellier from Kate Chopin’s The Awakening, the human woman is nothing more than a piece of property to a man, and not even his most valuable one. The introduction of this novel makes one thing clear, women like Sandra’s mother lived in regret and in the shadows of their husbands. Many women are like Sandra’s mother and never finished high school because they often had a man to provide for them and school for women was seen as a past time until they were passed from father to husband. <br /><br /><br /> Although the 1970’s and 80’s produced fantastic films, music, and art that has shaped our culture, people seem to forget what really happened back then, what the life was really like. Life in the 1980’s was nothing like Risky Business or Animal House for women in this decade. To spend a day in the life of the women that helped uplift and support women in my generation and generations to come would be hard and far different than we think. For that we have a lot to thank them for.<br /><br /> - by Maeve Devlin. <a href="https://medium.com/@mdevlin3/a-day-in-the-life-785b7f95cd1b#.hhvs9tyvd" target="_blank">This post originally appeared on Medium. </a><br /><br />*********************************************************************<br /><br />Growing up, I always told my family that I should have been born in a different year, and I don’t think I realized how different I would have it had I been born in the 1970’s or 1980’s. We see how fun their clothes were, how big their hair was, and how bright their makeup was, and that is why we want to live in that decade, we don’t pay as much attention to what … it was like for women living in the 1970’s. <br /><br /> <br /><br />A Day without Feminism written by Jennifer Baumgardner and Amy Richards taught me about what it was like being a woman in the workforce during the 1970’s. Having want ads segregated into “Help Wanted Male” and “Help Wanted Female” being a female and having a job such as a lawyer, females would have to look under “Help Wanted Male.” <br /><br />Also, if a boss demanded sex, refers to his female employee exclusively as “baby”, or says he won’t pay her unless she gives him a blowjob, she either has to quit or succumb. <br /><br />There was no such thing as sexual harassment back then, and I hear a lot of females who say “nothing like that would ever happen to me” or “I would not let someone do or talk like that to me.” I had that mindset growing up, “nothing bad will happen to me” although I never had my bosses act sexual towards me, I have had a coworker who could have been around my parents age (45–50), he would tell me that I was “sexy” and how “if he was my boyfriend, he would do this and that” and would write his number down and tell me “not to tell anyone about it.” I felt uncomfortable, when I told someone what happened I got “You probably started it by flirting with him.” I can’t even imagine having to do something with someone because I am a female and that’s what has to be done in order to keep my job or to be paid.<br /><br />I find it fascinating that depending on how you were raised and the generation you were raised in changes how things are looked at. In The House on Mango Street, Sandra Cisneros’ father wanted her to live at home until she was married. In my family, my parents were always telling me, “You will be moved out when you are eighteen.” Her father wonders “why he worked so hard to buy a house with a furnace so she could go back and live like that.” He wants her to be on television as a weather girl or to marry and have babies. <br /><br /> <br /><br />I also think that some people do not understand how hard women fought for us to be able to have the rights that we have today, some women are afraid to not do what their husbands tell them to do, like Sandra’s mother. Her mother told her “good lucky you went to school” she is proud that her daughter is doing what she wants to do. <div>

alone it's just one of them days, when I gotta be all alone.”</span><span style="line-height: 107%;"> </span></i></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">Since my mind
really wasn’t on feminist Camp today I’m going to switch it up and speak upon
my current feelings. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">In my introductory Women Studies course, we discussed
the topic of “white privilege” and the term privilege as whole. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">In one way
shape or form you have experienced something that the person next to you hasn’t, which makes them the person of privilege. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 107%;">Since the first day of this
trip, I have seen “white privilege” being used against me right in front of my
face. </span><span style="line-height: 107%;">For example, I asked one of my peers</span><i style="line-height: 107%;"> “Is a train station like an airport? Like do they check your bags,
because I have my Taser?”</i><span style="line-height: 107%;"> </span><span style="line-height: 107%;"> </span><span style="line-height: 107%;">These
individuals busted out laughing, and in my head, I’m thinking <i>I am dead ass
serious, I need to be protected at all times</i>. That is when a lightbulb went off
in my head that they just don’t get it! </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 107%;">It frustrates me because these are the </span><span style="line-height: 28.5333px;">individuals</span><span style="line-height: 107%;"> who have taken the WMST 101 course who may have agreed that acting as such is
wrong yet they still do it, obliviously. </span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 107%;">As a person of color</span><span style="line-height: 107%;"> </span><span style="line-height: 107%;">who takes these courses surrounded by white
women and people of different ethnicities how can I believe that these courses
are ways to bring awareness to situations when in reality it seems as though
it’s a slap in the face because obviously nothing’s changed?</span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">As I’ve mentioned
to the group, I have a mild Cerebral Palsy that affects both of my legs. Cerebral
Palsy is a congenital disorder of movement, muscle tone, or posture. I understand
that the New York lifestyle is fast paced, even down to the speed of your walking. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 107%;">However, I also know my speed limit as far as how much force and
pressure that I can put on my legs to get from point A to Point B. Thus far in
this trip, I tend to be the “slow poke” of the group the one that everyone has
to wait on at the crosswalks, even though the sign says walk.</span><span style="line-height: 107%;"> </span></span></div>

didn’t know, there I go being insensitive,”</i><span style="line-height: 107%;"> but to me the damage is already

the ladder to get off the top bunk of the bed and I fell face first onto the
floor. Luckily, I felt my self about to fall (this time) so I guarded my face.
After asking if I was okay, one of the girls in the room with me said, </span><i style="line-height: 107%;">“Do you not use the last step?!” </i><span style="line-height: 107%;"> </span><span style="line-height: 107%;">As if me using the last step would have

From a personal one on one conversation I better understood the idea of not letting people place you place yourself, meaning from my own personal experience when people around me say that I can’t do certain things because of where I from (Newport News, VA), or what I am (African American) I can’t allow that to bother me and make me stagnant, I have to prove that I can do whatever it is that I choose and go wherever I please. </div>

The party bus picked up Symone New (not pictured) who is a part of the <a href="http://www.doulaproject.org/" target="_blank">Doula Project</a>. The whole concept of a Doula was/still is new to me. A Doula is a woman who is trained to assist another woman during childbirth and who may provide support to the family after the baby is born. It was interesting to note that there are 3 types of doula: birth, antepartum, and postpartum which have different but equal responsibly for the woman in which they assist. </div>

After Dropping Symone off we swung by 222 Broadway and had a very impactful discussion with the women of the Women and Justice Project, While here, I heard the most painful yet beautiful testimonies from 3 amazing women who were shackled while pregnant, and faced problems with parenting while incinerated yet they’ve since been released and have excelled tremulously; from these women, I learned that you can’t pass judgment on a person without understanding their full story.</div>

Our next stop was the Bar Association. The American Bar Association, founded in 1878, is one of the world’s largest voluntary professional organizations. During our meeting with <a href="http://www.vancecenter.org/vancecenter/index.php/who-we-are/staff" target="_blank">Marie- Claude Jean-Baptiste and Susan Kath </a>I was made aware that I was completely oblivious to the things happening all over the world. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Lastly, we volunteered at the <a href="https://www.sanctuaryforfamilies.org/" target="_blank">Sanctuary for Families</a> Zero Tolerance Benefit Gala which is a non-profit organization dedicated to aiding victims of domestic violence and their children. Here is where I met one of the pioneers of hip-hop DJing, <a href="http://www.grandmasterflash.com/" target="_blank">Grandmaster Flash</a>! </div>

With day 1 of <a href="http://www.feministcamp.com/" target="_blank">Feminist Camp</a> coming to an end I just want to say I had so much fun today! Here are few pictures of how my day went. <div>
<br /></div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We started by going to <a href="http://www.vice.com/en_us" target="_blank">VICE Magazine</a>, Both Vice's online and magazine content has shifted from dealing mostly with independent arts and pop cultural matters to covering more serious news topics. While at VICE we got a sneak peak of <a href="https://www.viceland.com/en_us/video/woman-trailer/5707e6a700b074b145351edd" target="_blank">WOMEN with Gloria Steinem</a> which takes a look at the effects that incarcerated women have on the people around them. While at VICE we also took the time to fill out holiday cards for victims of sexual assault. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Our next stop was to <a href="http://www.feministpress.org/" target="_blank">The Feminist Press</a>. Feminist Press was founded by <a href="http://www.florencehowe.com/" target="_blank">Florence Howe</a> in 1970, it is an independent non- profit literary publisher that promotes freedom of expression and social justice. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lastly, my night ended with me stopping by <a href="http://chirpingchicken.com/" target="_blank">Chirping Chicken on 77th </a>and Amsterdam to grab a bite to eat, while there I was greeted and served by the owner Mike who sat and talked with me as I skinned my chicken down to the gristle lol! </div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
*******************</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
I have noticed the bitch and the ditz stereotypes for a long time. In movies, books, and of course in real life. And it’s always one or the other. There are certain personality traits that make up each category. If a woman is smart, she’s a bitch. If a woman is particular about who she dates, she’s a bitch. If a woman voices her discontent with anything, she’s a bitch. And on the other side; if a woman is too nice, she’s a ditz. If a woman likes to date and/or hookup with a lot of guys, she’s a ditz. If a woman is the kind to keep quiet even when she’s unhappy, she’s a ditz. It really amazes me to see how strong and lasting those two stereotypes are. And of course it would flow over into politics. I wonder if the real problem isn’t actually that men think women are too incompetent to govern, but that they are intimidated that women will be much better at it than they are, and the fragile foundation of their patriarchal lives will crumble. Nothing else could possible make sense to me. Women represent half of our population. Women are doctors, police officers, soldiers, architects, scientists, and everything in between. Why then are women still seen as inferior? Why is there still such a colossal problem that men find with women being politicians? Anything that has ever been considered a man’s domain; a sport, a profession, a hobby, is now being done by women. By lots of women. And they’re doing it at the same rate and skill level as any man. It baffles me that we have come so far as human beings and yet cannot seem to move past this particular issue of gender inequality. <br />
<br />
So maybe Hilary and Sarah wouldn't have made great presidents. That doesn't mean that every single woman wouldn't.<br />

<br />
This article looks at the double bind women in power find themselves. They are either the bitch or the ditz. The article focuses mainly on the 2008 presidential campaign, where these two archetypes were thrust upon Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin. Clinton was beaten down by reporters and other politicians, claiming that she was hostile, and it made them fear their manhood. One man even said when she talked he instinctively crossed his legs. Why is a woman in power so threatening to their masculinity? If Clinton was a man, saying and doing these same things, she would have been admired. When women step out of their “traditional” role of homemaker and dare to try to break the glass ceiling, they are seen as out of their minds. They are mean and tough, things a woman is not allowed to be.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, when women are seen as mothers, caregivers, or wives, like Palin, it is silly that they would want to be in a position of power. Palin has children, so people said she should be back home taking care of them not trying to take care of a country. Of course male candidates with children are not seen as having that same responsibility. It is never questioned why a man is working when he could be back home taking care of the kids.<br />
<br />
Sarah Palin did many things that I feel set women back in politics. After it was clear she was unprepared, and most likely unqualified for the position of vice president, she tried to flirt her way into votes. This demeaning of herself made it even easier for others to call her a ditz. It also made it easier for people to call future political candidates such things. There is a line from the article that I really enjoyed, it said that no women in politics was better than a woman that was going to take women leaps back.<br />

Here Women's Studies 101 students work to "unpack the invisible knapsack."<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="text-align: center;"> *******************</span><br />
<br />
<br />
McIntosh stated in the beginning that just how we acknowledge male privilege and its advantages because of a woman’s disadvantage, the same is applied to race. As an African American, I can point something out about someone else’s race and the beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries of that race but it’s more effective when someone of that own race realizes just how privileged individuals just so happen to be.<br />
<br />
If I decide to start a conversation about white people then I am just saying the same thing that a lot of other races have said or are saying but when someone who is white and understands their privilege addresses the accuracy of the situation a light bulb goes off in the minds of other privileged white persons.<br />
<br />
The list McIntosh made is accurate and it can go on to be much longer than that. White privilege has allowed security for those who belong in the category. White privilege is not even realizing that you have acquired these benefits in your life because no one has had to tell you differently. Cultures that are failed to be recognized have to take their own stand and initiatives to getting their voice to be heard. No one’s blaming anyone because you were born with these privileges but it’s important that you realize you have them and others may not.<br />
<br />
Being white makes a statement that may be unbeknownst to its people that says, “Society gives me power, and with that power I have an advantage over others because of the color of my skin”. It’s amazing how such a small difference in individuals can determine the life you’ll lead. Being white means that if you and a black person are both in a store, both wearing a white t-shirt and jeans, it’s more likely that a black person will be closely watched more so than the white person even though they are both equally capable of acts of deviance or even acts of normality.<br />
<br />
White privilege is being able to see products for your hair and skin and not think twice that it doesn’t apply to others. I don’t get to see commercials for women of color and products that will work best for me. White privilege has always been there. It will always be there. White privilege allows for your acquired safety in this society.<br />

This article was very different but also very enjoyable to read. The author hits ... so many points that I have never thought about before, and ironically a point that was made was about how people don’t give the issue of “white privilege” enough consideration. I found it very important that throughout the article white privilege did not mean racism, although it didn’t mean anything very positive. The article is stating that a white privilege and unfair advantages exist in the world and people are actively doing nothing to reduce the issue.<br />
<br />
While reading the list of conditions the author made I found myself in shock about how many that I saw familiarity in. Regarding number 5, I think this is a pretty significant issue because in the past few years I personally haven’t seen much positive coverage of any non-Caucasian people in the new, or media. I think it is a learned societal norm to accredit whites automatically even if something of equal or greater is happening elsewhere with one of a different race.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Number 20* was another point that stood out to me and I share a personal experience with it. White privilege applies to the lack of production of non- Caucasian toys or dolls, or posters with non-Caucasian people on them. When I was a child, about 8 or 9, my mom bought me the African-American “American Girl-Doll,” Addie. My friends all thought I was weird for having it and made fun of me for her, but I loved my doll. At that young age was the first time I was introduced to a racial discrimination. Another quick point that stuck out to me was number 26, about the Band-Aids and the flesh tone. I have never seen a darker colored Band-Aid and when this article brought it to my attention I was honestly kind of angry.<br />
<br />
At the end of the article, specifically the last paragraph, made a very to the point conclusion. She in my words, she basically said: are we going to take what we’ve learned from this and use it in a positive way or just sit back and ignore that it happened. I think that that last couple sentences apply to many other popular issues including women’s rights.<br />
