mexico's factoeris

During the last class we had a chance to look at the way of life the Mexican worker live and how they are treated by the companies from the U.S.Which moved there for lower wages. The fact that the workers can stand there and do the motions they do while working in the factory is mind blowing. Knowing that the companies would leave with out paying out the workers, it makes our country look like snakes and unreliable. At the end the women worker formed a union which took the companies to court where at the end the won and got their money. Even though they have to live with the waste of the factories they rejoice.

chipas coffee film

Looking back at the time when we watched this movie in class and and i saw how much work they put in everyday to make the organic coffee beans. Its a rare process. When i saw the little boy who can barely talk able to put his sare of work in to earn his family some money. It was said that all the coffee beans that were Left they ate and made tea for food. this film showed me how hard work different cultures put in to get so little while we are so lazy but get so much.

Gender in Inuit Society

In Alaska, life for the men and women were the same as almost every culture in the U.S. Men were the leaders and the labor was not equal. The men picked up food and hunted, and did everything needed for a successful day of hunting. On the other hand, the house hold work and the routines that kept everything in tacked were the basis for the women. Women didn’t have say on when they got married or to whom. The Tlingit Women were more involved in their families. The men and women did pretty much of the same things but trade. They both didn’t really have a say because in their culture they really respected their elders and basicly what ever they said went.

conquest

This hand out was raw and I couldn’t find anything that I agreed with. In Chapter one, they talk about violence in a sexual manner. Rape and other Sexual violence are tools of patriarchy. Race, racism, as well as incrimination played a major role in this reading to work the society. This puts a spot light on the African American women and other woman of color when it comes to their struggle of sexual abuse in their history.

Diss. women chapter 3

A woman’s role in the 21st century for the Chiapas varied. Women formed demonstrations, occupied land and formed marches of mainly indigenous women to get changes in their political identities. The women who took part in the movements were able to reach many people and make their network larger. Reading this chapter I feel that the Chiapas went through so much and had so many struggles, that something has to happen to make things better.

chapter 1, enter the white man

There was never was a European to come onto the Western Canada ground before the Hudson bay company was formed. The Company ties played a important role in the traders experiences. the opinion varied of the Indian women. Some said that they were not seductive but they were sweet and the sweetness of there voice made them attractive. Which started the marriages of the Indian women and the European fur traders. on the other hand Sex was a big deal between the two leading up to the spread of VD in the Indian country. the women then were seemed to be treated as sex objects as time went on as the two cultures worked together in the fur trading business.

what native women werent

Native Men and women where talked about disrespectfully in this reading. The English stated that hunting and fishing was a main part of the native’s lives even though like the thanks giving story the native Americans provided the English people with food kindness. Native Women didn’t have a lazy bone in their body it was always said that work was important to them. This makes me think of a cartoon that was very offensive because the English in this cartoon took advantage of the Native Americans kindness and betrayed them at the end forcing them to become like workers for the English men.
