I think that Jane Elliot was a woman before her time. What she put together to teach the children about discrimination was brilliant.

Is Height the Key to Success? Ho Io Weng‚ Peta May 3‚ 2010 Abstract Over the years‚ many researchers have tried to make a connection between some of society’s most respected people.

My initial reaction to A Heart Divided was that it portrayed people from the South in a very stigmatized way. Characters‚ such as Mrs. Redford or Jared felt like they fit in perfectly with people’s
