Revised thesis Statement
« Thread Started on Oct 19, 2003, 2:27pm »		[Quote]

Mary Dyer and Harriet Jacobs are vivid examples of how Quakers and slaves have been oppressed or discriminated agianst just because of who they are. They are both members of groups that are oppressed because they're women, one was sexually harrassed and the other wasnt able to speak up because she was a women. What Mary went through is important because she died for her religion and womens rights. Harriet wrote a book to tell what went on during slavery in the south. Both women were successful on what they planned to do. Harriet published her book called Incidents in the life of a Slave Girl. Mary Dyer died and repealed the law by doing so. Both women risked they're lives and got something done. This is one of the reasons why women can speak up and that there is no more slavery.

:o :o Mary Dyer and Harriet Jacobs are vivid examples of how Quakers and slaves have been oppressed and discriminated against of just because of whom they are. Mary Dyer and Harriet Jacobs both were discriminated because they were women who had no rights. Since Mary Dyer is a Quaker, she was sentenced to the gallows for being a Quaker. All Dyer did was, she wanted Quaker laws to be repealed. Female slaves such, as Harriet Jacobs was sexual abused. Harriet Jacobs was raped by her master and was used. Both women fought back by risking their lives and help did something for their children's future.

Mary Dyer and harriet Jacobs are vivid examples of how Quakers and slaves were discriminated against and oppressed against just because of who they are. Blacks were discriminated and oppressed becuase they were mostly slaves. BLacks and slaves were treated like property. Religious Quakers were discrminated and oppresssed against becuase of what they believed in. Purtains didnt allow Quakers. Both Mary Dyer and Jacobs fought back and struggled aganist oppression. Both were women and that cause them to be discrminated and oppressed more.
