What are the gist for these?
1 ( It has been observed before that society for a long time, discriminated against
another minority, the blacks, on the same basis – that they were different and inferior.
The happy little homemaker and the contented “old darkey” on the plantation were both produced by prejudice.)
2 ( As a black person, I am no stranger to race prejudice. But the truth is that in the
political world I have been far oftener discriminated against because I am a woman
than because I am black.)
3( Prejudice against blacks is becoming unacceptable although it will take years to
eliminate it. But it is doomed because, slowly, white America is beginning to admit
P7
20 that it exists. Prejudice against women is still acceptable. There is very little understanding yet of the immorality involved in double pay scales and the classification of most of the better jobs as “for men only.”)

5 ( More than half of the population of the United States is female. But women occupy
only 2 percent of the managerial positions. They have not even reached the level of

only two women who have held Cabinet rank, and at present there are none. Only two
women now hold ambassadorial rank in the diplomatic corps. In Congress, we are down
to one Senator and 10 Representatives.)

Read this paragraph from chapter 5 of the prince. there are, for example, the spartans and the romans. the spartans held athens and thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. the romans, in order to hold capua, carthage, and numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. they wished to hold greece as the spartans held it, making it free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. so to hold it they were compelled to dismantle many cities in the country, for in truth there is no safe way to retain them otherwise than by ruining them. and he who becomes master of a city accustomed to freedom and does not destroy it, may expect to be destroyed by it, for in rebellion it has always the watchword of liberty and its ancient privileges as a rallying point, which neither time nor benefits will ever cause it to forget. and whatever you may do or provide against, they never forget that name or their privileges unless they are disunited or dispersed, but at every chance they immediately rally to them, as pisa after the hundred years she had been held in bondage by the florentines. what idea is stressed in the passage? the desire for liberty the establishment of an oligarchy the dismantling of an acquired state the tendency toward rebellion
