I AM MORE THAN A LABEL OR ( am NOT a label Write an explanation of who you are and how you are more than the labels the world tries to put on you. (This should be at least 200 words long, below you will see an example wrote for you - You can delete my example after you write your own or just push the example down the page, your choice). EXAMPLE: You label me with gay, woman, middle-aged, white, but none of these are the whole of who I am. I am HUMAN, and I bleed the same red blood you do, feel the same emotions and strive for the same goals of love and happiness, and I cry the same tears. You only see our differences, that my heart loves the same gender or that have privilege" for the color of my skin, or the "equipment" I was born with that somehow makes me 'weaker" than you. I did not choose ANY of those pieces of me. They were the genetic lottery numbers / was given in the womb. Why do you try to judge me for things cannot change? Our similarities far outweigh our differences, yet they are all you can see. Can you not see that at the end of the day I want the same things you want and you and I are really just two HUMANS walking similar paths but in different bodies? If nobody ever put a label on melwould simply be someone who wears glasses, who likes hats and jeans and hoodies, who cares about helping others, who loves deeply, who hates failure, who can talk to anyone but generally prefers to be quiet, who values education, who is not very different than you. I am not really angry with you because I know that we label unconsciously but how would we see each other differently if we WOKE UP to our bias and stripped off the labels? We would be free to love who we love, dress how we like, pursue careers that we are good at and not have to worry about what the labels say we should be. (290 words)​

Select the correct answer. read this excerpt from leo tolstoy's the death of ivan ilyich: her attitude towards him and his diseases is still the same. just as the doctor had adopted a certain relation to his patient which he could not abandon, so had she formed one towards him—that he was not doing something he ought to do and was himself to blame, and that she reproached him lovingly for this—and she could not now change that attitude. "you see he doesn't listen to me and doesn't take his medicine at the proper time. and above all he lies in a position that is no doubt bad for him—with his legs up." she described how he made gerasim hold his legs up. the doctor smiled with a contemptuous affability that said: "what's to be done? these sick people do have foolish fancies of that kind, but we must forgive them. . " they all rose, said good-night, and went away. when they had gone it seemed to ivan ilyich that he felt better; the falsity had gone with them. but the pain remained—that same pain and that same fear that made everything monotonously alike, nothing harder and nothing easier. everything was worse. again minute followed minute and hour followed hour. everything remained the same and there was no cessation. and the inevitable end of it all became more and more terrible. based on the excerpt, how is praskovya fedorovna a character foil to ivan ilyich? a. she is kind and takes care of ivan, which is why he feels guilty about how he treated her for most of their married life. b. she is vindictive toward ivan while pretending to be worried about him, thus reminding him of how his family has never forgiven him. c. she plays the part of the worried wife without any real feeling, symbolizing the false propriety ivan upheld but now hates. d. she is young, healthy, and beautiful—everything ivan can never be again and wishes he could return to. reset next
