The Struggle for Peace in the Middle East United States of America 1917–1945 Women’s Movements Women’s Movements In 1891, a petition calling for women to have equal voting rights with men was presented to the parliament of Victoria. Named the Monster Petition because of its size, it included signatures of approximately 30 000 women and was roughly 260 metres long. The signatures were gathered by members of the Victorian Woman’s Christian Temperance Union and the Victorian Women’s GALBALLY Suffrage Society. While Victorian women did not get the vote until 1908, the petition is an important reminder of the campaigns for women’s suffrage. The Monster Petition is now held by the Public Record Office Victoria. Petitions were also used by the women’s suffrage movements in other Australian colonies, New Zealand, the United States and Great Britain.

Developing understandings of the past and present in senior History extends on the skills you learnt in earlier years. As senior students you will use historical skills, including research, evaluation, synthesis, analysis and communication, and the historical concepts, such as evidence, continuity and change, cause and effect, significance, empathy, perspectives and contestability, to understand and interpret societies from the past. The activities and tasks in Women’s Movements have been written to ensure that you develop the skills and attributes you need in senior History subjects.

They analysed their upbringing, the custom of women changing their family name to their husband’s, and of putting girls in pink and boys in blue. They discussed the fact that some school subjects were identified as being for girls and others (such as science and mathematics) were seen as being boys’ subjects. They also discussed the fact that occupations such as secretary, teacher and nurse were considered as being for women, while those of doctor, lawyer and tradesperson were for men. Girls were often encouraged to be teachers because they would be at home with the children after school and on school holidays. In the selection of children’s toys they noted that there was a clear divide between the sexes. Other methods used by the WLM to draw the public’s attention included choosing one day in INFORMATIONa year to march or to celebrate a cause. One example BOXES was the adoption of the International HISTORIAN BOXES DIAGRAMS AND Women’s Day (IWD) march.

Therefore, analyzing movie that is part of a literary work is very interesting. The subject of this research is Silent Hill, a horror film series adapted from the video game. However, this research only takes the data from the first sequel of this movie, because the available data are appropriate with the objectives of this research. Silent Hill 1 tells about a mother who struggles to find a solution in a mysterious town due to irregularities in her adopted daughter who often sleepwalks and calls Silent Hill town. The purpose of this research is to find out how women are depicted in the movie, and why they are shown as the dominant characters. This research uses an objective approach by applying liberal feminism theory, representation theory of Stuart Hall, and supported by film theory. Liberal feminism emphasis on individual autonomy and equality of opportunity. This research focuses on the concept of equality measured by Merle Thornton. While representation theory is used to help in interpreting the portrayal of woman characters that are portrayed dominantly. After analyzing all the data that have been found, beginning from the source of the conflict, the efforts, and the achievements of woman characters that become the focus of this research, they are Rose, Officer Cybil Bennett, and Christabella, the writer concludes that women in this horror movie are described as the figures that can be equal like men.

  • Alternative Media in Brisbane 1965-1985
    5535 words Alternative Media in Brisbane: 1965-1985 Stephen Stockwell Brisbane under the Country/National Party governments from 1957 to 1989 is often portrayed as a cultural desert. While there were certainly many ‘Queensland refugees’ who went to the southern states and overseas to realize their creativity, this paper’s review of alternative media in Brisbane between 1965 and 1985 substantiates previous claims that the political repression also encouraged others with radical views to stay to contribute to the extra-parliamentary opposition. The radical movement is revealed as adept at using the products of technological change (including new printing processes, FM radio and light-weight Super 8 and video camera equipment) to create new audiences interested not only in alternative politics but also contemporary creativity. In particular this paper argues that by countering Premier Bjelke-Petersen’s skilful management of the mainstream media, alternative media workers were producing the basis of the thriving creative industry scene that exists in Brisbane today, as well as non-doctrinaire ideas that may have a wider application. Bjelke-Petersen’s Brisbane and the Willis Thesis In his novel Johnno, David Malouf captures the spirit of Brisbane after the Second World War: ‘Our big country town that is still mostly weather-board and one-storey, so little a city… so sleepy, so slatternly so sprawlingly unlovely!’ (Malouf 1975: 51) With little industrial development and mining profits going south or overseas, Brisbane did not have the economic base to sustain the large, lively and well-financed cultural scenes of Sydney and Melbourne. Critics and residents alike accepted Brisbane as provincial, stunted and without a creative spark.

  • Ii: Mary Alice Evatt, Modern Art and the National Art Gallery of New South Wales
    Cultivating the Arts Page 394 CHAPTER 9 - WAGING WAR ON THE ESTABLISHMENT? II: MARY ALICE EVATT, MODERN ART AND THE NATIONAL ART GALLERY OF NEW SOUTH WALES The basic details concerning Mary Alice Evatt's patronage of modern art have been documented. While she was the first woman appointed as a member of the board of trustees of the National Art Gallery of New South Wales, the rest of her story does not immediately suggest continuity between her cultural interests and those of women who displayed neither modernist nor radical inclinations; who, for example, manned charity- style committees in the name of music or the theatre. The wife of the prominent judge and Labor politician, Bert Evatt, Mary Alice studied at the modernist Sydney Crowley-Fizelle and Melbourne Bell-Shore schools during the 1930s. Later, she studied in Paris under Andre Lhote. Her husband shared her interest in art, particularly modern art, and opened the first exhibition of the Contemporary Art Society in Melbourne 1939, and an exhibition in Sydney in the same year. His brother, Clive Evatt, as the New South Wales Minister for Education, appointed Mary Alice to the Board of Trustees in 1943. As a trustee she played a role in the selection of Dobell's portrait of Joshua Smith for the 1943 Archibald Prize. Two stories thus merge to obscure further analysis of Mary Alice Evatt's contribution to the artistic life of the two cities: the artistic confrontation between modernist and anti- modernist forces; and the political career of her husband, particularly knowledge of his later role as leader of the Labor opposition to Robert Menzies' Liberal Party.

    12_Gosse_11.qxd 11/7/05 6:54 PM Page 153 Chapter 11 WOMEN’S LIBERATION AND SECOND-WAVE FEMINISM: “THE PERSONAL IS POLITICAL” Objectively, the chances seem nil that we could start a movement based on anything as distant to general American thought as a sex-caste system. —Casey Hayden and Mary King, “Sex and Caste,” November 18, 1965 Women are an oppressed class. Our oppression is total, affecting every facet of our lives. We are exploited as sex objects, breeders, domestic servants, and cheap labor. We are considered inferior beings, whose only purpose is to enhance men’s lives. Our humanity is denied. Our prescribed behavior is enforced by the threat of physical violence.... We identify the agents of our oppression as men. Male supremacy is the oldest, most basic form of domination. All other forms of exploitation and oppression (racism, capitalism, imperialism, etc.) are extensions of male supremacy; men dominate women, a few men dominate the rest . All men receive economic, sexual, and psychological benefits from male supremacy. All men have oppressed women. We identify with all women. We define our best interest as that of the poorest, most brutally exploited woman. The time for individual skirmishes has passed. This time we are going all the way. Copyright © 2006.
