This meant more civilized work for black women, which as a result led to a stronger economy base. This was not the end result of the oppression that the black women would receive. They were forced to carry passes and the black women united ....

.... all depends on you”(page 69). In this society men were believed to have, God given, superior bodies and minds than that of the women’s bodies and minds. This made men more suited for outdoor task such as farming or fighting. This idea is taken from the statement, “For he (God) made mans body and mind more capable of enduring cold and heat, and journeys and campaigns; and therefore imposed on him the outdoor task”(page 69). “…knowing that he who deals with the outdoor tasks will have to be their defender against any wrong-doer, he meted out to him again a larger share of courage”(page 69). The wife is saying with this remark that Greek men are naturally braver ....

.... have been dropping bombs on Japanese industries, and incendiary bombs have been dropped on Japanese cities. Despite heavy casualties and heavy damage, Japan continues to resist showing more damage has to be done in order to get a surrender. This also shows conventional weapons are not proving to be effective and something more potent is required. The tremendous shock of the blast will precipitate a swift surrender. Enough American lives have already been lost and in the long run, the bomb will cost fewer lives. The attack on Iwo Jima alone has cost us 25000 casualties and nearly 7000 deaths, a rather high price to pay for an eight-square-mile island. Okina ....


How Did World War 2 Change The

.... early 20th century, mostly in the U.S. women were thought of as inferior. Men did anything they possibly could to prevent women from entering certain parts of the industry, backing up their actions with “Men are stronger than women”. The majority of fighter planes were built by men and it was also men who worked in most of the factories that produced cars and other transportation vehicles, thus implying that technology was a man’s job.

.... to take up politics. By 1921 he was already the founding leader of the Nazi party. Hitler was an incredibly racist man and he had a great hate for Jews. By 1933, Hitler gained political power by winning the election. Soon after he made himself absolute dictator, calling himself the Fuhrer which means "Leader". By the end of the 30's he was already sending Jews off too concentration camps to meet a horrible death. I believe that Hitler was one of the greatest causes of World War 2. Although there are many other reasons, he was definitely one of them. Another reason was the Treaty of Versailles. This was the treaty that was signed at the end of World War 1. Thi ....

.... right-wing groups and police. The massacre was followed by a military coup and ended a brief flowering of democracy ushered in by a students movement in October 1973 that had stunned the world by toppling a well-entrenched military dictatorship.
