political cartoon: Anne Bradstreet

Women have had to fight from the beginning of time for certain rights automatically accessible to men. For example, in this political cartoon a woman is shown struggling to “fit” into a dress, labeled “National Suffrage”. This suggests society’s un-acceptance of women, even if they are part of the nation as citizens. Likewise this is shown in Anne Bradstreet’s writing when she struggles to represent her Puritan belief while also maintaining her humanity.

All your paragraphs have great controlling ideas. However, you are missing the second analysis. Just make sure to fix that and it would be great! Maybe I'm just missing it. I Don't know. Just comment back. Great Job!

I like the political cartoon you selected, but you're misssing a second analysis and conclusion. Overall, I would check for grammatical errors and spelling. The background and text are very legible.

I really liked your political cartoon selection because it really connects to what we're learning in history. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott fought for their independence at the Seneca Falls Convention and eventually, they won out. Are there any revolutions that you think need to happen? I was thinking along the lines of gangs.
