Blog Post #14

The three posts that were the most impactful to me were posts eight, six and fourteen. It was so fun learning about the histories of our interviewee’s. I learned so many lessons from them such as how they viewed the world at the time, how they overcame their tribulations, and how they grew up to be confident and strong women of today. Reading the ” This Bridge Called My Back” book opened my world a little more because by reading these women’s stories, I learned so much about they overcame their obstacles and gender discrimination. Finally for this post, it gave me a chance to fully think and reflect on this class about what I’ve learned. This class changed me and taught me how I can help change things for the better. My knowledge of other feminist figures and texts has expanded tremendously. I really liked taking this class and would encourage other students to take this class.
