The Great Chinese Revolution ft.Steven, Credit to iMovie.

Creator of video- Jordan Fung.

The Chinese Revolution- The great Chinese proletariat cultural revolution, from 1945-1952. This period of time started with the great leader, called Mao Ze Dong, and he was with the people called the red guards, who supported him throughout the historical moments.

I learned many things about this cultural revolution, for example, the statistics of how many deaths has this famine Mao Ze Dong has lead to, and how many people were included and counted as a red guard, and how many civilians were affected by this movement.

Sexism and how it could effect your life

This video gives an overview of the book “The 57 bus”, by Jordan.

This is a non-fiction book made by Dashka Slater. The book was published on October 17, 2017. This book is the winner of the California book award. The theme of this story is about sexism and how it can affect somebody’s life. This story talks about a girl who is different than everyone else around her, Sasha is agender, meaning they don’t identify as either male or female, and they prefer the nongendered pronouns they/them/their instead of he/she, his/hers, him/her. One of the main themes is sexism, more specifically, being asexual, in a very bad environment.

Something I have learned is to not tease people for their differences or their thoughts, because if you continuously tease somebody that would be bullying, and bullying is never good for anyone. Like this story, Richard Thomas burnt Sasha’s skirt on fire, and gave her a third degree burn.

Claim: I think that the boxers did not deserve a bad rap, but it is very arguable.

Evidence 1: The opium war, the opium war, has harmed China very visibly and clearly. The Chinese were addicted to opium and were unable to leave this opium-smoking habit. At that moment, about 12 million people smoking opium. This has caused the loss of many cultures and above all, a lot of economic losses.

Evidence 2: Because the Chinese lost a lot of money in the opium trade, and the Chinese were low on crops/food as the population continued to grow. the population in China increased by 30 percent in 60 years.

Evidence 3：There were 20 million people who were killed because they (Taipei Rebellion) wanted to colonize and overtake the Qing dynasty.

Reasoning: This shows that they clearly did not deserve a bad rap, in my opinion, because they actually wanted peace for their own country.

Theseus is a character from the play “A midsummer night’s dream.” He stole a girl called Hippolyta from a fight, and then afterwards married her.

Theseus is a caring person. It shows this when he says,

‘Stir up the Athenian youth to merriments, awake the pert and humble spirit of mirth, turn melancholy for the two funerals.’ This shows that he cares about this event a lot.

Theseus is a loving person.

‘Now, fair Hippolyta, our nuptial hour.’ This shows that he is a loving person because it shows that he loves Hippolyta, and is looking forwards to their nuptial hour, their marriage hour.

Theseus also receives respect.

Egeus: ‘With duty and desire we follow you.’ This shows that he gets respected by people like Egeus, which means he must be respected by a lot of other people

In conclusion, Theseus has many characteristics, and for the examples I have listed above, they are all positive.

How humanist am I?
