BP1 QTR3 Chrisholm

This blog post will discuss a speech of Chrisholm.  She gave this speech to congress.  I will talk about Qs 1 and 4, noting my opinions and the facts on the matters.  This speech was given in 1969.

As for #1, I think that there is still sexism today.  We will always be biased, and I admit to sometimes being biased myself.  However, I also believe that some women might be sexist to men having jobs like a secretary or a teacher.  And as for #4, I noted that women were considered odd or unruly if they tried to expand.  Another thing I noticed was that they also had less education options.

In conclusion, Chrisholm touched on some very important points in her speech.  Some of them still apply today. Some do not.  But it is mostly is a matter of opinion-as is most things on this topic.

    The way that this is written makes it seem like your are referencing a longer work that you have written, and therefore falls a bit short of content.
