.... the same qualifications as a man that applied for a job would be turned down based on the simple fact that they are a woman. Prior to the Women's movement women were constantly discriminated against in this manner. Sexual discrimination still exists but its occurrence has drastically reduced, subtle discrimination is however, still quite prevalent in our society. Salary is one aspect of this still present discrimination, a vast majority of women employed in the work force today receive less of a paycheck for the same amount of hours worked on the same jobs as men. This is reinforced by the low number of women who have a high paying, high powered job. There are a sig ....

.... to have one where she lived. She could not afford to travel elsewhere to have it "preformed" so she went to court. On January 22, 1973 the Supreme Court said that it was legal for any woman to have an abortion and terminate her pregnancy at any given time. The Roman Catholic Church has said that abortion is murder and violates all terms of human morality. My personal opinion lays between that of the Roman Catholic Church and the Supreme Court. I believe that a woman should have the right to an abortion only if she was raped and can not afford to have the child, or if she does not know who the father is. If the woman just want's to have an abortion for no reason, believes th ....

.... case of Plessy versus Ferguson was a decision in the series of Supreme Court cases dealing with Jim Crow laws, the laws dealing with racial segregation, and whether or not the idea of separate but equal was constitutional. Justice Brown, in his decision explained to the court that Plessies arguments about the Louisiana law forcing blacks and whites to ride in separate cars on trains was unconstitutional was wrong. The court believed that the law was not in conflict with the thirteenth amendment because forcing blacks to ride on separate trains was not slavery, what the thirteenth banned. Slavery was involuntary servitude, and the Louisiana law was forcing no inv ....

.... organized the first women's temperance (anti-alcohol) association and, with Elizabeth Stanton, worked to pass the first laws guaranteeing equal rights for women with regard to their children, property, and wages. Anthony was a heroine in North America for her tests of the U.S. Constitution, though the right to vote was not secured until after her death. Susan B. Anthony taught school in New Rochelle and Canajoharie, NY, and discovered that male teachers were paid several times her salary. She devoted her first reform efforts to anti-slavery and to temperance. However, when she rose to speak in a temperance convention, she was told, “The sisters were not invited here ....

.... or less, aim to show the many freedoms which their generation was fighting for. These fights were used to help push for freedoms from areas such as society's rules and values, competition, living for others first, and the older generation's beliefs as a whole including the freedom to use drugs. The younger generation just wanted a chance to express their own views rather than having to constantly succumb to the values and rules left behind by the older generation. The two different approaches used by authors to express these views are often representative of the two main systems used by youths to help gain their freedoms. The first approach, taken by the Port Huron Statement ....

.... for the murder of a fellow classmate. Although he is only 15, nearing 16, he will be tried as an adult for his crime. His plea? Self defense. The outcome of the short trial sentenced the boy, the murderer, to a life inside a prison. He was sent to a specially designed prison that held only the most violent of juveniles, many of which had been tried as adults. Where they would stay until they reach their eighteenth birthday, and what would they get? A ticket to a high security prison, full of rapists, pedaphiles and others of their kin, ready to further pervert them and make them more efficient and darken their souls, or rape, sodomise and kill them for being the new arri ....

.... cell phone usage while driving all together isn’t the best means to solving the problem. Many good aspects come from cellular use in the car. For example, accidents get reported to 911 rapidly, traffic updates occur more often because citizens call and report back ups, and drivers who need to be taken off the road because of being intoxicated or just plain reckless will be located quicker and easier. I do, however, believe that more safety precautions need to be taken for individuals who will be talking on their phones while driving. Phones are being created by Erricson, Motorolla, and Nokia today in which offer a hands-free cell phone so that you can keep both hands on t ....

.... to talk to , but there is never an effort to do anything more than that. These friends are good because there are never any chances to take with them. One just talks to them and then they go on their merry way. These school aqquaintinces are the peopl who are talked to about different hoobies and class studies. Not ones personal life. School aquaitnices are the people that one will not see for the first time until the schools ten year reunion. Second, there are former friends. These are the ones taht grew up in ones neighborhood and moved away. These are the friends who will bring back memories that people thoght were forgotten. One might be embarassed at first ....
