The U.S. Constitution was last ratified in 1992. Our world is changing constantly, including people’s personal interest and opinions. Do you believe we are to see amendments in the future to be add to our Constitution? Why or why not?
Due to the changes daily and the drive for human rights has been consistent. I feel as though we will see a proposed amendment that has to do with equal education. This amendment will drive to get rid of money distribution, equal funding to schools from the government, and more available resources to the schools and the students attending. Through this amendment I predict a growth in more students and schools because the lower income schools will have more and better sources provided to them.

Should we be outraged by another country if it violates what we consider a basic right?
In America, we delight in everyday freedoms like the ability to own property, the right to make a living and to live life respectfully on our own terms. What would happen if those natural rights are targeted? We, as a people, would be outraged and protest, but unfortunately that’s not always an option in another country. Currently, women are being prosecuted in Afghanistan under the Taliban government. They are being forced to cover themselves completely while out in public and their male family members face penalties for possible dress codes. Young girls are only allowed to attend school through 6th grade, further hampering the possibility of higher education. “Islamic principles and Islamic ideology are more important to us than anything else.” Shir Mohammad, an official from the minister, was quoted as saying. This came as a particular blow to the women who, for the past twenty years, had enjoyed more personal freedoms with the initial lifting of the Taliban back in 2001. When the U.S. pulled their troops from the country, the Taliban regained control and has since then resumed the restrictions on women’s rights. It’s a bitter pill to swallow for Pangea, the Italian operation that was pivotable in the acclimation of freedom for these women. Now that these women know what basic human rates are, they are once more being forced to bow once again to an erratic force.

Your Formal Essay #4 will involve some creative thinking as well as a close analysis of the three plays. This time, you are not required to use internet sources; in fact, it is particularly important for you to do your own thinking. This assignment might be called an exercise in time travel, because I want you to consider whether dramas written thousands of years apart, in very different societies, can be equally meaningful and moving to us.
Choose ONE of the topics below for an essay of five paragraphs. Continue to use MLA format for your heading, title, page numbers, citation of quotes, and works cited list at the end.  Thank you very much, and please be accurate in discussing the plays but also creative and imaginative in expressing your ideas.
Choose ONE topic, A or B:
A. As the protagonist of a Greek tragedy, Antigone is an extreme character in an extreme world of kings, queens, heroes, heroines, villains, and tragic endings. Explain how she would behave if she lived in the situation of Nora in A Doll House and Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters in Trifles, which is a world of middle class and working class problems and more ordinary people. Judging from Antigone’s behavior and what she declares about herself, how would she act in these modern situations, particularly in relation to the men in these plays?  Which of the women in your discussion do you admire the most, and why? How would you behave in one of these women’s circumstances?
B. It is clear by the ending of  A Doll House that Nora Helmer sees herself as a person with passionate beliefs completely out of place in the society around her–its norms of behavior, its attitude toward women, even its religion. Imagine her finding herself in other circumstances, the situation of Mrs. Wright, who kills her husband, and Antigone, who defies King Creon even in the face of death. Judging from everything Nora does and says about herself, how do you think she would behave in these two very different situations?  Which of the women in your discussion do you admire the most, and why? How would you you behave in one of these women’s circumstances?
