    In the prologue of Guns, Germs and steel by Jared Diamond, Diamond seeks to explain why there were different rates of human development on different continents. The author explains and expresses this statement by many different angles, such as evolution, intelligence, climate, location and advanced technology. Why did history take such different evolutionary courses for people of different continents? In other words, what steps did different continents take to become who they were and how were they able to take those steps? How did different continents develop faster than others? Could it depend on intelligence? Then again, it was stated that “New Guineas are on the average at least as smart as a European” (p.g 14). Also, for many years psychologists have looked and studied for differences in IQ between different people around the world. Unfortunately, “IQ tests tend to measure cultural learning and not pure innate intelligence.” (p.g 20), Therefore, should we really base history on intelligence? Or could the answer to Yali’s question be answered based on climate and location? It has been said that “people from northern Europe contributed nothing of fundamental importance to Eurasian civilization until the last thousands years; they simply had the good luck to live at a geographic location where they were likely to receive advances (such as agriculture, wheels, writing and metallurgy) developed in warmer parts of Eurasia.”(p.g 22) Advances? Agriculture? Wheels? Writing and metallurgy? All these advantages were given by location and climate. The “white” people obviously were higher up on the evolutionary scale. Despite, their intelligence; they still had the materials and the location to work with. While New Guineas had it more complex and struggled a lot more because of their location and climate.…

    In poetry, writers often feel or think with a purpose. In the poem, Ella in a Square Apron, Along Highway 80, written by Judy Grahn, there are significant words she uses in order to enhance the personification between women and animals. Along with the poem titled Aunt Jennifer’s Tigers, by Adrienne Rich, imagery is taken into consideration when reading into her representations of the feministic personality. Equally, these two poems relate feministic characteristics to those of animals through use of imagery while both are portraying women to reflect the skin of their concealed feelings.…

    Anna Julia Cooper was born in 1858 to a slave and a slave owner in North Carolina. She attended St. Augustine’s Normal School and Collegiate Institute for the colored. After she graduated she began advocating for people of color especially for women of color. Cooper strongly believed that the status and well-being of black women was a central part of the progression and equality of the nation. Throughout her life she fought relentlessly to uplift black women in hopes for a more just society for everyone. She famously wrote in her book A Voice from the South, “only the black women can say when and where I enter, in the quiet, undisputed dignity of my womanhood, without violence and without suing or special patronage, then and there the whole Negro race enters with me”(Cooper 54). Cooper described her teaching profession as “the education of the neglected people,” she felt that education, more specifically higher education, as the path of black women’s advancement (55). She believed that educational development women remove any need for reliance on men (Giddings 138). In 1902 Cooper was promoted to principle at M Street School where she taught math and science. With her firm belief that education was the pathway to progress for people of color, she often rejected her white supervisors’ authorization to teach her students different types of trades, and instead she prepared them for college. Cooper sent her student’s to some of the most respected universities, which helped the M Street School get accreditation from Harvard, but rather than her success be celebrated it was received with hostility from white supervisors and white supremacy that didn’t want to see the advancement of black youth. While Cooper was teaching at the M Street School she was heavily involved in building spaces for black women outside of education. She founded the Colored Women’s League of Washington in 1892, and in1900 she helped open the first YWCA chapter for black women, in…

    Within the south, since the civil war, if African Americans were kept ill-educated they would remain ‘in their place’ in society. An educated "boy" could become a danger. There was also a belief in some areas that African Americans were not intelligent enough to deserve an education. The shadow of "Jim Crow" cast itself over education in the south. The result of this was very much linked to the poverty most African Americans found themselves in without a good education; no one could advance themselves in southern society. Therefore, a poor education guaranteed a poor lifestyle for the African Americans.…
