Here
are some ideas for your presentation:
1.) Pretend that you are Bella
Abzug--or really any congressperson,
and that you are lobbying before
Congress on why they need to
provide more scholarship money
to students (or choose another
issue that you care about or
that effects your life).
2.) Make everyone in the classroom
pretend that they are a person
of the opposite gender--boys
become girls and vice versa.
Then ask them what they want
to be when they grow up. Then
let them be their real gender
and ask them the same question.
Are the answers different? If
yes, explain why that is--a
sexist society still presumes
that women can do some jobs
and men others.
3.) Pretend that you are the
first woman president--and that
you were elected in 2000--how
different would the world look.
I hope those help and I hope
I'm not too late.
