Hillary Clinton Mirrors Analysis
I can honestly say that Hillary Clinton’s political ad, “Mirrors”, works very well in that it clearly expresses the message that Donald Trump does not have the highest respect for women. This ad features many young women looking at themselves in the mirror while demeaning comments play in the background and it ends with an interviewer asking Trump, "Do you treat women with respect?" and him answering with, " I can't say that either." I don’t support either side, as they’re both drastically flawed, but I can agree on the fact that Donald Trump disparages women. His social media account is full of offensive comments where he insults women from Angelina Jolie to a Supreme Court justice. He says that “Nobody has more respect for women than I do”,

    The announcement of Betsy DeVos to serve as commencement speaker at Bethune-Cookman University aroused many emotions. Understandably, a university president should be able to invite the U.S. Secretary of Education to speak to their students on graduation day, but this is different. This is beyond political ideology or educational philosophy.…

    Granted, Donald Trump can have a bigmouth, but nonetheless he still considered equality. For King Arthur, equality meant that no one was superior, especially at the round table. “Arthur wished for his chosen knights to sit round a round table, so that nobody would be superior.” (King Arthur Biography). Also, morality has changed greatly throughout the years and we are more accepting of LGBTs (lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgender), especially in marriage. Donald Trump believes that people shouldn’t be fired or not hired just because of who they are, but believes that marriage should be between a man and a woman. “Angelo said, ‘It’s a complicated relationship that Trump has with the LGBT community, but if ever there was a group that can be said to have had a warm relationship with Trump, it’s LGBT individuals.’…

    In this set of interviews, Angela Davis simultaneously addresses the issue of why we are stuck in this carceral state while also providing her solution, a solution that many would see as too radical. After first reading this interview, I thought immediately of the conversation we had with the two activists from Hands Up United. Society views her as an “enemy of the state”, as a communist and terrorist because of her use of violence as means to affect change, something very similar to what is happening now on the ground in cities like Ferguson and Baltimore. She also elaborated on tensions within the original civil rights movement because of multiple strands of activism running through the black community (ranging from Martin Luther King and Malcolm X to the Black Panther Party). However, Davis slightly complicates what the speakers from Hands Up said because it becomes clear that this is not a new type of activism (it might simply appear new because of how popular media sources have chosen to represent these events). Still this “new agenda” that she speaks of seems like the most appropriate approach after spending a semester looking at where we stand and how…

    He objectifies women and treats them as if they’re here only to serve for his amusement. Not only does Trump behave toward women in degrading ways, he boasts proudly about it. Trump has a history of misogynist acts, for decades, he has degraded and objectified women, from Rosie O’Donnell when he said, “If I were running ‘The View,’ I’d fire Rosie O’Donnell. I mean, I’d look at her right in that fat, ugly face of hers, I’d say ‘Rosie, you’re fired’ to his own daughter, Ivanka in an interview when he said “… if [she] weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating…

    We as a society got to this place of disrespect and general disregard for individuality as it pertains to a woman’s importance outside of the bedroom. It does not take exposed genitalia or sexual presentations of a woman’s body to objectify women. Objectification does not just objectify the individual person in question: the model, the singer, the porn actress, etc. It objectifies all women and girls. It sends the message that this is how women and girls can be viewed, and used; it is a commentary on women’s value as a whole. I do not have to be depicted in an obviously objectifying ad to be objectified by people; I am objectified simply by being a woman in a society where images like this are normal, accepted and prevalent. The same is not true for men; of course some people may argue that men are also objectified, and this is true. However, the majority of objectification of men in our culture is different from how women are presented; the main difference is that men are given…

    Our minds are impressionable. Whether we know it or not, everything we see and experience affects who we are and how we behave. Advertising is an over 100 billion dollar a year industry and affects all of us throughout our lives. A study in USA Today states that the average American watches about 26-28 hours of television weekly. In one week, they will see 1080 commercials; In one year, that person will have seen 56,160 commercials on television alone. Advertisements sell so much more than products; they sell values, perceptions of success, sexuality, and perfection. They tell us who we are supposed to be, and how we supposed to act. It is startling, to say the least, when a large majority of our advertisements and media depict, and often glorify, sexual assault and domestic violence against women. Consequently, sexual assault and domestic violence in our society reflect the uprising of seemingly “harmless” sexualized views and presented in our media.…

    Hillary Clinton has become a big role model for women in politics. She served as the first lady during Bill Clinton’s presidency, served as a senator from New York, was the Secretary of State, and is now embarking as a candidate for President of the United States once again. McGinley explains that Clinton was initially unpopular and being very feminine. Clinton gained popularity through her husband’s public infidelity and thus “Clinton downplayed her femininity and emphasized her toughness in order to compensate for being a woman, and to earn respect for her competence and experience” (717). Clinton displays masculinity by wearing varied colored pantsuits to stand out amongst her rivals. In this way, Clinton received respect from her colleagues and become a more public figure. She used “a gender strategy of gender denial and avoidance…downplaying her role as wife and mother and her sexuality,” McGinley describes (720). Clinton signifies a faithful politician fighting for a women’s right to…
