“Housewives and Consumer Organizing” by Judith Rosenbaum personal thoughts and reflections History and historiography are not similar. Marginalized individuals, including women, need to act as sharers and keepers of stories about their roles in social change because men generally can not tale women’s tales with justice. Regarding the 1902 meat boycott, actions are better than inaction because if women decide to stay at home and sob, what good will result from the in-action. When the danger and immediacy are explicit, even previously politically uninvolved women will get involved. Participants of the meat boycott were not young, or active in the labor movement; they were around 39 years with an average of four children. The women (both immigrants and those that were born in America) viewed the cause for the boycott as something relevant and vital to their lives, such as feeding their families and saw community outreach as an effective way to achieve desired outcomes. The establishment of links among women of diverse backgrounds works with efficacy. Battles are not always won all at a single boycott. The 1935 boycott…
Russel Means presents the economic struggles experienced by the Indians Russel Means presents the economic struggles experienced by the Indians as a result of the actions taken by the United States (02:40-03:06). The federal government invaded their land. The US brought in policies that were seen to undermine the sovereignty of a tribe. The policies contributed to broken treaties, removal, and relocation, massive land loss, cultural decimation as well as population decline in Indian nations. The white settlers did not take into consideration the native neighbors’ level of civilization because their goal was acquiring the land by any means possible. Despite the efforts, the Indians made to survive the sufferings; the United States was committed to regulate the financial stability of Indians through the use of the anticapitalistic approach (05:00-07:00). Russel Means advocates for an investigation concerning the land and realty relations that allow for the determination of the ways they broke the treaties. He adds that both the rich and poor populations underwent similar struggles, such as escalated sexual abuse on children. This is because the education system fails…

Protection of Personal Privacy Invisibility equals privacy in the contemporary society that totally disapproves of personal information remaining to self. Certainly, the maintenance of privacy on the internet has become a virtual superpower.

Aryan Invasion Question The Aryan invasion did not happen. What is actually there was that there was Out of India Theory. This is based on the fact that there was no significant migration in India in the past 12,500 years. Besides that, the other evidence is that there have been no changes in the genetic makeup of the Indians for the past 40,000 years. Since there was no change in genetics and that there is no evidence of mass immigration, then what I should think about is that the Aryan Invasion theory is a myth. The ancestors of modern-day India arrived there a long time ago, even before the introduction of the Aryan Invasion theory. Besides that, it should also be noted that the Dravidian culture emerged from here. The Aryan or the Vedic culture is known to have popped in after the decline of the Indus Valley Civilization. However, this culture did not apply to everyone, as some people were forced to embrace it, and this was evident in the Gangetic plains. The Vedic rituals were seen to be…
