Model UN

February 17th, 2011

Strangely enough I had a rather refreshing discussion with my Model UN group about women's rights. May I add that other than the instructor, I am the ONLY girl involved? It was interesting and we discussed how our perception of women in the United States originated. We also discussed women's oppresion in the middle east, and then further discussed the extent of equality among the sexes.

Model UN isn't the only place where women's rights has been discussed lately. For example, my IB French class is discussing equality between the sexes as our latest topic. This has included reading and analyzing "Le Petit Chaperon Rouge," or "Little Red Riding Hood," discussing women's rights in Moracco, and more.

It was very refreshing, and made me think of my GLW girls. Miss you ladies!

With Love,
