Dear Dorsla,

For the past several weeks, I have been observing and Learning the activities of women rights on planet earth. I am very happy to be among the first group of Liberian political student using my vacation to explore planet Earth and to study women rights from both the European and the Native American perspectives.  The only best way to achieve this goal is to go the United States and enroll at Minneapolis Technical & Community College. Honestly, for the time I have been on Earth, especially in North American, I have visited Minneapolis Technical and Community College, a place where visionaries go to acquire knowledge and understand the principal ideas of women rights. So far from my experiences, I have found out that the people of the United States strongly believe in the promotion of women rights and gender equality, which has positive effects on the development of this beautiful place on earth. You may probably be confused about how I came to this conclusion, but I must admit that North America appears to be the best place on earth.

Fortunately, a week ago I visited a very interesting place called “desire to learn” (D2L) on the college web page. It is a well-designed graphical network, containing bar that is categorized into several bulletins: course home, content, quizzes, grade, and class lists. It has different types of articles posted around the web page that is more interactive and user-friendly. By this I mean a search on this site usually leads one to discovering other sites or links. It is a very interesting place in several ways.

At first I felt that I was alone, but it wasn’t the case in reality and there was instruction all over the page to keep me going. When I was exploring the “desire2learn” (D2L), I noticed that Professor had posted instruction on the webpage on how to contact him. While looking for information, I saw this post from the instructor: “make an appointment with me if you have question about the project” and “you can also email me on D2L” (Creel, 2011).  I was so excited to the point that I emailed him, saying “Hello, my name is Losoni Sanoe, a student from planet Liberia”. He replied me within a minute and said “Welcome to class”.  I realized that my Professor was around me. I send him a one-sentence email, saying “I need some article that will tell me how women movement started on planet earth”.  While I was looking at the graphical designs of the computer screen, he replied to my email. He wrote, “The articles written about women rights and gender equality are many on Desire to Learn page. Just search for the one that is relevant to your topic.” The email exchanges went on for a while between us.I sent him another email, asking him “Can you give me a name of any writers?” He immediately replied me and said, “Search any article written by female writer”. It is a very interesting place where you can take school campus home.

Still not satisfied completely; I sent him another email, informing him that I had seen a lot of articles written by female writers and they looked very stimulating. He responded and said, “That was right”, and further said “without their effort women would not have gained any rights in this beautiful place called the United States.” I was glad to hear that and I started my reading immediately. Honestly, I am very happy right now and just cannot find a word to describe this wonderful “desire to learn” (D2L) that has all learning ingredient in it. Truly speaking, the past few weeks of exploring this highly empowering environment has been transformational for me. Even my worse day on planet Earth is better than my best days on planet Liberia.

I downloaded my first article title “Mary Wollstonecraft and Women rights” written by Marry Wellstone. To admit, my mean pen is very little to describe how much I like this must-read article. It gives detailed history of how women fought for their rights in all aspects. It is an excellent example of how the women movement gradually developed and became powerful across the United States, the new place of hope for women around the world. Unlike our own planet Liberia where some people view women as sex and pleasure objects and lesser class of human beings, on planet Earth I have learned and understand the values of women in the American society. The article is the narration about how women were denied voting rights on this promising planet where everything is possible. While I was reading the article I found it to be very emotionally disturbing. At the end, this narration redefined the roles of women in American society. Unlike our own planet Liberia, the author said that in the United States “some point in time women are thinking of their wants and needs as individual and independent” (Wollsonecraft, p.2).

Yesterday I found myself in a supernatural place located on 3^rd floor of the school main building called learning center. It had diversity of books arranged by categories. When I entered the learning center and saw how the books were organized, I couldn’t control my emotions at that moment.  The first roll from top to down were all science related books. The next roll was very interesting for me, because it contained politics and history books.  The learning center was a very quiet place and everyone was busy reading some kind of books.  I went to the front desk and asked the girl, “Hello, I am a student from Liberia. I need a help.” She replied, “How may I help you?”  I said that I needed some books that show how the issues of women rights were addressed in the United States Constitution.  She answered, “Look for a book called “The American National Government written by Jonathan Mott”. It is a very good example of how women gained their constitutional rights planet Earth.  When I picked the book I was fascinated by its graphic design, cover, and the photo of President Barack Obama.  He explained how women started campaigning at home by confronting their husband about discrimination against them.  After reading half of the book, I noticed that females demonstrated across this magic place for their rights and his story redefined the roles of women in their society. According to Jonathan Matt, “beginning in the 1800s women organized, petitioned, and picketed to win the rights to vote, but it took decades to accomplish their purpose” (Jonathan, p.241).

Dorsla, I realized that it was not an easy task to get women on board. The gradual transformation women have undergone on Earth was tedious and challenging, but the 19^th Amendment granted them the right to vote.
