The Global Engagement Fair
The Global Engagement Fair took place in the Russel Union Ballroom from 10:00 am – 2:00 pm. The Global Engagement fair had different tables set up that ranges from fight against sexual assault to Circle K club. I walked around had different conversation with the people at each table and Service- Learning facilitators who help students with becoming better leaders in the community. They help build strong relationships across campus with many people with different backgrounds and different ethnics to help you become a global citizen.
The one exhibit that stood out the most to me was Walk a Mile in her Shoes. The issue it is trying solve is stop rape, sexual assault and gender violence. The issue on global levels it is has it differences and

    In summation to this reflection upon this movie/ documentary and article we should all as teachers try to strive to help our students look at each other equally and treat them with the same respect, and by providing this lesson of no discrimination to our students. This will hopefully inspire a future were anyone regardless of what their skin color or their ethnicity can feel powerful and just as important as the people that surround…

    Gross-Rosen: Concentration Camp During The Holocaust

    To me the Anne Frank exhibit stood out more because I felt as if I was seeing Anne's life more clearly. In addition, all of the Anne Frank films were very powerful because they were very comprehensible. The Anne Frank exhibit isn't only an exhibit,it teaches people about a young girl's life and how she survived three years in hiding. Also, I really liked The Museum of Tolerance because the gas chamber was a very powerful experience. I liked seeing how the gas chamber was very similar to how the Jews were experiencing that .To conclude, I am very thankful to have had the chance to go to The Museum of Tolerance because I learned so much and I felt in a way connected to Anne's life a bit…

    Jane Elliot Angry Eye Summary

    She discussed her ideas on abortion and how she believed that men should share some of the blame/ punishment that a woman receives for aborting an unwanted child since it is equally his fault for impregnating her with the child. Her solution was to require all men who contribute to an unwanted abortion to under go a vasectomy that can be reversed later in life if the man decides to marry and start a family. I believe her idea is actually very good idea, since the vasectomy is reversible and would make a lot of young men think twice about fooling around unprotected and would decrease the number of babies aborted per year. She also talked about all of the black inventors who helped shaped America and its technology, and how we are not taught about these inventors in school. She noted that the man who created the stoplight was African American, yet most of us were never taught this, which was true. I had never heard of this and I think it is important to know and give credit where it is due. Aside from her speech, the event was run very nicely, there were an adequate number of seats for the event, and I appreciated the complimentary food and drinks. I look forward to attending more of our schools on campus events in the…

    International Involvement

    Before the Civil War, America developed a Manifest Destiny that, in part, meant the expansion of the original thirteen colonies into a great nation. This meant expanding from the original borders past the Mississippi River toward the Pacific Ocean. As that Manifest Destiny was being fulfilled after the Civil War ended, a new Manifest Destiny had been conceived by the U.S. Congress. This new Manifest Destiny began a new period of expansion beyond the boundaries of the continental United States, which gave rise to the Imperialist ideals, having the United States in direct competition with England, France, Germany and Spain for the more underdeveloped countries globally. In this paper, I will summarize the United States’ involvement in international affairs during the late 19th century, explaining the extent to which American involvement in international affairs affected global politics.…

    African People Hall Observation

    The spirit world exhibit stood out to me as well simply because it looked interesting. The way the display was set up made you curious enough to wonder what it was about. The spirit world is said to explain the living world and if you were good you were ensured an afterlife. In this afterlife you would have powers much more powerful than mans. Figurines and masks were used as a way to worship the ancestral spirits. The spirits of animals were said to convey the most power.…

    Personal Narrative: My Trip To The National Civil Rights Museum

    The National Civil Rights Museum made us think, it made us question, and it made us feel. With the racial and political climate we are in right now, I think that EVERYONE especially teens need to see this exhibit. Hopefully it will put some real faces behind some travesties that happened not too long ago and hopefully it will serve as a reminder that we don't want history repeating itself.…

    U.S. Involvement globally

    At the time of the Spanish American War the United States went from relative isolation to increased global involvement because of economic expansion, and rebellion in the western hemisphere. The consequences of this increased global involvement on American society was that America exited the Spanish-American war as an Imperialist country and America began to abuse its position as an emerging world power.…

    Reflective Essay: Video Analysis

    In this week’s class some of the things I would like to further discuss, is the presentation and my thoughts about them. When Monica presented I was memorizes by the song and her art. Although I saw the picture prior to class, the uses of the sing brought her pictures to life. When Chayne presented I was at first confused what his topic was about, but after explaining it was easier for me to better understand the meaning of the video. Therefore, I’d enjoy how he connected the video into his journey of learning more about the different ways he can be sexist and racist. Overall the presentation provided me with a different outlook of both Monica and Chayne.…

    International Involvement

    Several significant events took place from 1890-1905 that involved the United States, particularly the United States becoming more involved in international affairs. The United States has been a major player in world affairs over the last two centuries. In the years following its War of Independence, its policies tended to be isolationist, but over the centuries it has transformed, mainly by trade and economic imperatives, into a superpower that exerts military, economic and cultural domination over much of the rest of the world. This paper will outline two major events occurring from 1890-1905.…
