Research #2

As I have combed through my research I have found some interesting stories about the women of the suffragist movment. One was the story of Susan B. anthony and her friends attempt to vote. The women bullied the man at the booth into letting them register. I thought that it was funny but then I read that they were booked on charges for what they did. In addition, I found the story of the March down Pennsylvania avenue interesting. The women were thrown to the ground, spit on, had thier clothes ripped and thcigar buds pushed into thier skin, yet they persevered thier way through the crown to finish the march. Also, the book told about how a group of visiting college students locked hands and led the women through the crowd to support them.

Igbo…

I thought I already posted this but it wasn’t on my page.

The Igbo are a profoundly religious people who believe in a benevolent creator, usually known as Chukwu, who created the visible universe (uwa).

The Igbo people are a grouping of Nigerians that share a language as well as a culture.

One element of the culture that is central to the igbo way of life is thier religion.

The Igbo believe in a benevolent creator called Chukwu (wp 1).

This benevolent creator is also the creator of the universe (wp 1).

This belief brings together the people just as God brings together the people in America.

Research #1

So far in my research I think I have picked a good topic. Compared to the annotated bibliography it has been so easy to find sources. I have six currently but I am pretty sure I will not be using one of them. My question is: What is the American Women’s Suffragist Movement? I liked this topic because I like politics but I hate all the conflict it starts so I figured this is a way to look at a series of events that shaped politics without discussing personal political beliefs. My research consists of three internet sources and two books. I consider both books academic sources and one of my internet as academic. The other two sources I am not sure are academic but both are good sources.
