My Reflection: A look through My Past
“Life is a mirror and will reflect back to the thinker what he thinks into it.”
–Ernest Holmes
One cannot separate (my name) the scholar, from Rahmah Alosaimi the young Saudi lady who grew up in the beautiful streets of Jeddah City. With that in mind, I am a young Saudi woman who is deeply passionate about human rights and especially women rights. I did my elementary schooling in Saudi Arabia (Jeddah) and then went on to a great high school in the same nation. I was then fortunate enough to secure a great scholarship because of my stellar grades to come study in the United States. I saw the opportunity as a way to gain additional cultural exposure and to learn in a new country. I pursued my undergraduate degree and excelled at it. Consequently, I enrolled into a Master’s program here at ……….University and it has honestly been a challenging yet fulfilling journey.
Coming to The United States of America fanned my conviction on equal human rights as I met many women that were passionate and vocal about women’s rights. To best understand who I am as a scholar, you must appreciate what I hope to achieve with my education. I do not intend to write these papers on feminism and then not practice or advocate for what I am preaching, I do not intend to rest on my laurels. At home in Saudi, I hope to agitate for women equality within the limits of our law, this means that I will use registered local organizations to help agitate for equality. The research that I have been conducting in my Masters classes, for my thesis and even before in my undergraduate degree are all equipping me with the skills that will empower myself and my organization to assist women in Arab nations to enjoy the same level of rights as our male counterparts.
As a Saudi Woman feminism to me means equal treatment for men and women before the law. Interestingly, my brand of feminism is not influenced by the books we read in our class. Instead, it is dictated my experiences as a Muslim lady who grew up in Saudi. I always wondered why my mother could not drive a car yet her sons were allowed to, or why my younger brother could go to the mall by himself but I needed a chaperone.
The ENGL 737 Literary Criticism and Theory course were particularly exciting and useful. In that class, I learned to read and more importantly to question what I have read (I believe this needs key clarification. I’m not sure what you mean by learned to read)For example, my research for have exposed me to the different struggles that women have faced over the years in different cultures. Further, the idea that men and women deserve equal protection and benefit of the law as discussed in our classes has always been a fundamental belief of mine and is the bedrock upon which I have written this paper. Not only do I agitate for equal benefit and privilege but also for equal responsibilities. Further, one of the more profound texts that I read in the literature criticism and theory classes is Euripides’ Medea. The play is an ancient Greek piece conducted by Dionysus. The play makes me understand that although ancient Greece is considered as one of the most developed countries with a vibrant democracy and great architectural marvels it lacked in many human rights areas. For instance, the book shows that women were relegated to childbearing, they had no political or economic rights.(I am not sure how this relates to the overall conversation and how this made you a great scholar)
Everyone who hopes to agitate for equal human rights among different people must learn to critique what they are told by mainstream media, by educators and by those that benefit from systems built on inequality such as patriarchy. Seminars in World Literature was an equally educative class that allowed me to grasp different cultures and the effect of these cultures on their local systems of equality.
I believe that I am an ambitious scholar as I hope to study up to the Doctorate level. There are not too many female Doctors of Philosophy in my culture. I would love to become Dr. (my name) as I think it would encourage young Saudi girls that they too can achieve academic success and other forms of success. What I am saying is that as scholars, it is important that we motivate as many people as we can. I am a feminist from a culture where the term “feminist” is more of an insult than a title, thus I hope to demystify the misconceptions around it. The title is misconstrued as an insult because many people use the term feminist to refer to a woman that is non-conformist, a woman that is a rebel and does not respect her culture. To some people in my country a feminist is a troublemaker who wants to have women up in arms against our conservative culture. I disagree, a feminist is an enlightened man or woman who wants equality. hope to show the conservatives in my life that you can be a feminist and still be a good Muslim. To be a feminist is not to be a rebel. This in a nutshell is who I am as a scholar.(I’m still not seeing who you are as a scholar.keep pulling on the specifics,not just what you hope to be.)
I have studied various works of art in a bid to write this portfolio paper. These papers and works of art have similar themes but are markedly different in their stories. The first book that I read was Toni Morrison’s A Mercy, Her Speech titled Cinderella’s Stepsisters, the book is set in the early Racist 17th century where Black people were owned by white landowners. Morrison delves into issues of race but also shows that in that day women even among the slaves were usually at a disadvantage as compared to men. The role of religion in the slave era and how various colonies interacted with their people is examined at length in the book.
Toni Morrison’s Cinderella’s Stepsisters is a speech that she presented to a graduating class at the prestigious Barnard College. The speech centers on the theme that all too often powerful women use their power to harm other women instead of helping and empowering them. The speech uses the popular fairy tale Cinderella and her relationship with her sisters to drive the point home. Arguably, the most important take away from the speech is that women’s rights ought to be compared not just to women’s rights but to fellow women. Some women are not more equal than other women!
feedback:
you have to spend time telling us really who you are as a scholar. I need to know how these three essays and how being a feminist really matters to you. Finally, there is a great deal of proofreading needed here. I’m still not seeing who you are as a scholar.keep pulling on the specifics,not just what you hope to be.
Present yourself as scholar: Think about your research interests. What is your particular research focus and why? Why did you make specific decisions, such as your paper topics? How does your positionality inform you as a scholar? Is there something you want to achieve through your academic work?
Identify and Analyze Issues of Context
In the last paper, we examined demagoguery: how rhetors can seem to provide stability in anxiety-ridden contexts by undermining deliberative discourse, often through punishing outgroups for ingroups’ problems.
For this paper, consider a demagogue who has risen to a position of influence and/or full leadership, and come up with the best possible strategy to defeat the demagogue. For the purposes of this essay, assume that the society in question has a legitimate democratic election system, even if the reality may be more complicated. You may use the same person about whom you wrote the previous paper.
The essential question this paper asks you to explore is as follows: Could an opponent defeat this demagogue in the context in which he or she has arisen, and what rhetorical concepts would determine whether or not that defeat was possible?
Your paper should be organized around rhetorical concepts and strategies at your paragraph level, just as your previous papers have in this class. Discuss those concepts and strategies in terms of how they would work with the demagogue’s audience in the given historical context. Be ruthlessly practical about your strategies, audience, and context. This paper is not about what should work against a demagogue in a rational, ethical context, because a demagogue represents an irrational decision-making process by the audience; rather, this paper is about what could work against a demagogue in the human context in which he or she rose to power.
Successful papers will analyze specific quotations by both the demagogue and those who have challenged him or her.
Provide examples of strategies that others (they can be opponents for leadership or media members) have used. Discuss what has made these strategies effective, ineffective, or even counterproductive. Since you want to be practical about contemporary audiences, a Tweet, for example, counts as a written argument. You can find speeches and interviews on YouTube. You also, however, need to do enough facts-based research to develop some expertise. Be sure you have specific ideas about what facts and/or practical solutions your movement should use and how it should use them. Successful papers will likely cite at least four sources.
Industrialization, Immigration, and the Early Progressive Era
Directions: Incorporate the material from the Industrialization, Immigration, and Early Progressive Era page. Please make sure to properly cite any material you use. While I recommend in-text parenthetical citation, you may use any citation method you prefer (Author’s Last Name or Title of Chapter/Article, page number if possible).
Minimum length: 500 words
Industrialization and Immigration: Read three primary sources; read one secondary source; watch the first 24 minutes of Race: the Power of an Illusion; watch Banished
Progressive Era: Read two primary sources; read one secondary source; watch Triangle Fire (optional)
Based on the course material, develop an interpretation about immigration, race/citizenship, and/or industrial capitalism in the late 1800s and early 1900s. In your analysis, be sure to include a thesis statement (a one-or-two sentence summary of your interpretation) and use the class material as your supporting evidence. (The main idea is to critically use the class material to tell the story of American society in the late 1800s and early 1900s. For example, you could consider how Americans defined and understood citizenship during this era and how ideas about race/citizenship contributed to the debates over immigration and discriminatory policies against nonwhites or analyze both how beneficiaries of industrialization justified economic inequality and how workers, farmers, and reformers sought to change the economic/political system.) In a concluding paragraph, discuss how the class material influenced your understanding of American history. What is the significance of this topic and why is it important that we understand it today? What connections, if any, can you make between this material and the present? (What parallels do you see between the late 19th century and the early 21st century in relation to debates on immigration and/or economic inequality? How would you compare justifications for economic inequality in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to justifications for economic inequality today? How do we define Americanism and citizenship today? Why do you think nativism (anti-immigrant sentiment and policy) and/or debates on economic inequality have been recurrent features in American history?)
