The RED Carpet for Change

 

The Mexican Revolution took place from 1910 to 1920. Citizens in the Mexican Revolution wanted 3 things, only 3. It was social reform, land reform, and rights. They believe that everyone deserves equal amounts of everything. The revolution was a period of time when Mexico was consistently changing presidents. Because these presidents didn’t meet the citizens’ expectations. Finally, Obregon took power and met the citizens’ expectations. The revolution then ended there.

The Button with Blood

The found poem above was taken from page 4 of the novel “Button Buttonby Richard Matheson. The poem itself shows an internal conflict by the main character Norma. In the story, the protagonist is having an external conflict with her husband. Norma wants to get the money and push the button, but her husband disagrees. On page 47 we can see that Norma doesn’t care about other peoples’ lives compared to the money. At the end of the story, Norma pushes the button and kills her husband. The person who gave her the button told her that someone she doesn’t will be killed. She wasn’t aware that she didn’t know her husband enough because her husband disagreed with her. I hope in the world, most people will not choose to push the button after they heard about the story.
