YEAR 2117

The last unit in my Humanities course is called Herstory. In this unit I learned about issues that are in race, gender and, class. We predicted the future and what it might look for equality. I really enjoyed taking this course, it opened my eyes about gender, race, and, equality all around the world. I hope the future has better people leading countries and, people will live in happiness and don’t have to worry about what gender they are and, what skin color they are. The purpose of this Action Project is to imagine what our society will look like in the future. I had to create a time capsule filled with a series of elements that foretell what the struggle for equality might look like 100 years from now. This Action Project was tough because it was hard and scary thinking about what the future might look like. I wish I could live to see how it would be. Overall this course way by far my favorite, I can’t wait to take my next Humanities course. Down below is me opening my time capsule.  

                               

CHICAGO TRIBUNE JULY, 16 2117

DIFFERENT AMERICA

Hispanics are the fastest growing race in America. They are the largest majority beating Whites and African Americans. Spanish is the leading language in America; immigrants aren’t looked down on anymore. The President of the United States is a Latina. Her name is Luciana Zelaya; she is creating new laws which benefits everyone no matter race, gender, or class. There are more jobs in the United States because of President Zelaya. People aren’t in poverty anymore; everyone came together, and they made a change in America. Women get equal pay. Zelaya wants to show everyone that anything is possible as long as they put their mind to it; America is thriving. President Zelaya believes that everyone is equal and should be treated fairly.

President Zelaya’s great-grandparents were immigrants and struggled living in America. They were considered aliens; they couldn’t get good paying jobs, health care, or good housing. Many immigrants struggled and some races and religions were even banned from the country. They worked hard, and now, their great-grandchild is the President of the United States. The country has come a long way and it has definitely improved.

President Zelaya wants America to keep growing and improving, she knows she wouldn’t be where she is now if it were not for the past, her family, and the people of the United States. President Zelaya loves hearing what the people has to say, she wants to provide everything she can and stay true to her word. Zelaya listened to her people and she doesn’t want anyone to struggle when it come to money and providing food for families. She has recently passed a new law. Benefiting every household in the country making sure everyone has the right needs in order to fully live the “American Dream.”
           
Down below are two interviews of citizens; one voted for President Zelaya and, the other one is against President Zelaya.

Dear Editor,
I am beyond happy that I voted for President Zelaya, I had so much faith in her. I believed in her and knew she will be a great President. I never thought I will see the day that a Latina will be a president. I am a young woman and my great-grandparents were immigrants, so many will say, “You only voted for her because she is Latina.” Well, that is not true President Zelaya qualified to be the president we all needed. Since President Zelaya passed a the new law unemployment rate is much lower. People aren’t in poverty anymore, and are doing much better and many Americans are happy. President Zayala is doing an amazing job being the first Latina President of the United States. There are people that are mad about a Hispanic being president and on top of it’s a woman. Some are even protesting holding signs that say “Women can’t run this country.” I think it’s rude and uncalled for, they need to realize that America has changed and it’s going to keep changing. America has many people with different nationalities and religions it is important to embrace that as a country. 

Dear Editor, 
I do not accept that a women is leading our country. This country was founded by men and it should stay that way. I think the reason why she won was because only women voted for her. The law she passed is great but a man should be President. Hopefully she only last one term.
