Unleashing the Revolutionary Storm

Anne, she’s a peasant in third estate and 17 years old Her parents died 5 months ago because they starved for 3 weeks. Her sister was executed during the Reign of Terror just because she accidentally hit the nobility and The Committee of Public Safety saw it. Anne actively participated in the French Revolution and always fought with other estates. The biggest reason why she actively participated in the French Revolution was because she wanted to revenge King Louis XVI and the upper classes, who made third estates starve. This is her journey starting from Estates-General all the way to the Reign of Terror and the death of Robespierre.

French Revolution was successful, it brought significant social and legal reforms that had a lasting impact. Third estates tried their best to abolish feudalism, and at the end of the French Revolution, they did abolish feudalism and France gave equality to everyone. If the French Revolution did not happen, France would not have equality for everyone, and they might still have divided estates. Similarly, the French Revolution resulted in freedom for everyone. Before the French Revolution, it was hard for third estates to express their emotions to the upper classes, but during the French Revolution, third estates started to gain power and they demanded King Louis XVI for economic reforms and equality. Third estates’ expression did make changes to their future life, and the upper classes didn’t punish third estates anymore after the French Revolution. Also, the economy was reformed after the French Revolution. The government reduced the prices of essential goods to ensure their availability and affordability. The government promoted manufacturing and industrial development by establishing factories and economic growth.

However, during the French Revolution, around 30,000 people were killed or executed. The number of people who died had a significant impact on France. Still, some people believe that the French Revolution was a too violent and cruel event that had happened, even though it had a good impact on it.

Freedom by the execution of the King and Queen

The French Revolution Started in 1789 and ended in 1799. The French Revolution was a huge event and a turning point because a lot of things changed after the French Revolution. King Louis XVI was the King of France during the French Revolution. The cause of the revolution was that Louis kept wasting money partying, even though he was aware that third estates were starving. Third estates had no vote rights during the estates general, so they started the French Revolution. In our video, we included Estates General, the National Assembly, The storming of the Bastille, the Flight to Varennes, the execution of Louis and Marie Antoinette, and the rise of Napoleon.

Am I a Humanist?

Am I a Humanist

 

I think I am 80% Humanist. I strongly agree on renaissance individualism and education, agree on ancient ideas into practice, and disagree on religious faith. Overall, I agree most of Renaissance Humanism.

 

my name is June, not Fish Eyes

I chose “Tuesday of the Other June” by Norma Fox Mazer for my found poem.

The conflict the poem is about

“Tuesday of the Other June” is an external conflict. Antagonist is June M, she called June T a “Fish eyes”, “Buffalo brain”, and “Turkey nose”. The protagonist is June T, she got bully by June M, but at the end she embarrassed June M in front of everyone. The story is about bullying a girl, who has a same name. June M and June T met each other in the swimming pool. June M called June T a “Fish Eyes”, just because they have a same name. Everyone in her swimming class called her “Fish Eyes”.  Since one of the external conflict is Person vs Person, I think “Tuesday of the Other June” is an external conflict, it is June T vs June M and June T vs Everyone in her swimming class”.

Concept of my poem

My poem represents perspective of June T.  My poem includes the first encounter of June T and June M, how people treated her, what she wanted to say, and how much she hated Tuesday. “What’s your name?”, “June.”, and “Wrong. June is my name and your name is “Fish Eyes” is the first thing they said when they introduced each other. “Everyone called me Fish Eyes” is how people treated her. “No. No. No. No more” and “What did I do” is what June T wanted to say. She wanted to say it, but she didn’t, because she could’ve imagine what will come next. “Tuesday is an awful day” this is how she indicated how much she hated being with June M.

Graphic design and artwork of the poem

The font indicates June T’s feeling and the way people treated her. “Fish Eyes” with a blue box’s font shows that the word “Fish Eyes” was a word that she most hated. The color shows a feeling of June T. Red is madness, blue is sadness, green is pain. My background image represents how people saw June T. The reason why the background is black is because there was no one who helped June T when everyone was calling her a Fish Eyes. Fishes are about how people saw June T.

My basketball cardboard arcade

Skill that I learned is that before I make the cardboard arcade, I need to measure the length of the cardboard. If you don’t measure the length, when you are making it will be terrible!! I couldn’t success because of the length. the cardboard was so long so I need to cut it to make smaller. ?

One thing I would like to change is cannon. I made a cannon but I made it so small so it wouldn’t go far. I also made the cannon not facing the top so the ball couldn’t get up to the top. If I changed the cannon, it would be more comfortable to get the ball goal.

If I did this again, one thing I would differently do is cannon. I would like to make my cannon facing the top so that can go far as I want. I think my cannon was so low so the ball can’t go higher.
