Women in the American Revolution
In Colonial America, women were discouraged from taking an interest in politics and were instead expected to focus only on traditionally 'feminine' matters, such as homemaking and childrearing. However, such gender roles were challenged during the American Revolution (1765-1789), when women played a crucial role in achieving the independence of the United States.
From the very first signs of tension between the Thirteen Colonies and Great Britain, colonial women discovered their political voice. Women were the driving force behind boycotts of British imports, shunning British tea in favor of local herbal substitutes, and holding spinning bees to reduce dependence on British cloth. Female writers, such as Mercy Otis Warren and Phillis Wheatley, helped turn public opinion against British rule, while hundreds of women accompanied the Continental Army to perform essential duties like washing, nursing, and cooking; some women, like Margaret Corbin, Mary Ludwig Hays, and Deborah Sampson, even took up arms and fought against the British. Although women were not viewed as politically equal to men after the war, their involvement proved to be a vital first step in the long struggle for women's rights in the United States.
Role of Women in Colonial America
In October 1608, the 'second supply' of English settlers arrived at the Jamestown Colony of Virginia to supplement the population of original settlers. Among these new arrivals was Thomas Forrest, a gentleman financier, who was accompanied by his wife, a woman listed in the ship's manifest only as 'Mistress Forrest', and her maid, Anne Burras. Mistress Forrest and Anne Burras were the first two English women to settle in Jamestown; Burras would marry later that year and earn the additional distinction of becoming the first English woman to give birth in Virginia. English women continued to sporadically arrive in Jamestown over the course of the next decade until 1619 when the Virginia Company decided to send large groups of women to foster a self-sustaining population. In 1620, 90 single women, many of them from poor families, arrived in Virginia as the first of the so-called Jamestown brides, or 'tobacco brides'. They were married off to Jamestown's male settlers, each of whom paid the Virginia Company a dowry of 120-150 pounds of tobacco. Additional groups of Jamestown brides continued to arrive in the following years.
Faced with this growing population of women, the colonists of Jamestown implemented a gender hierarchy similar to that which existed in England. This revolved around the doctrine of coverture, which stipulated that once a woman was married, she was under the complete authority of her husband and no longer enjoyed an independent legal status. A married woman, or feme covert, was legally considered to be one with her husband; she could no longer own property or sign contracts, and any money she earned belonged to her husband. Once a woman married, she was usually confined to the role of homemaker, devoting her hours to cleaning, cooking, ironing, sewing, and gardening. Divorce was difficult to obtain and was often only permissible if a pre-existing condition rendered the initial marriage invalid. As a result, many colonial women felt anxiety about marriage, with one woman referring to marriage as a 'dark leap' from the familiarity of her parents' house into an unknown future controlled by a man whose personality she may have misjudged (Norton, 42). Still, married life was more desirable than remaining a single woman – or feme sole – for too long, as spinsters were often placed near the bottom of the social hierarchy.
Of course, the status of colonial women varied from colony to colony, and widely depended on social class. Wealthy women, for instance, were usually better educated than lower-class women, as were women from Puritan New England who were often taught how to read in order to study the Bible. But, by and large, women were expected to remain within the 'feminine sphere' and to display only feminine traits such as modesty, cheerfulness, patience, and chastity. They were discouraged from expressing any interest in subjects that were considered masculine, particularly politics; attempts by colonial women to involve themselves in politics were met with punishment, as was the case with Anne Hutchinson, who was banished from Massachusetts in 1637 after challenging the authority of male religious leaders. But, as historian Mary Beth Norton points out, the advent of the American Revolution lent colonial women a political voice for the first time, helping to spark the slow progression of women's rights in the US.

Are all of your WoD characters, generally, in one widespanning WoD or do they exist in separation, isolated from one another when looking at them from campaign to campaign?
excellent question / excuse to give a brief overview of my games.
I'm in 4 games!
The most recent one is a game I ST for for some random Reddit ppl, cause i wanted to help introduce someone to WoD. This has only had 1.5 sessions due to Scheduling Issues and is seperate from my other games, its set in 2018 Austin. I haven't talked about any characters from this game yet!
-
The other 3 are indeed supposed to be in the same WoD universe. I am the ST of one of them, and players in the other two.
One is a vampire game
One is a Hunter game (ST for this one!)
And the other is a Mage game (Technically mage the awakening which is chronicles of darkness and not WoD so idk youd have to ask my ST how he is making them compatiable.
-
The vampire game is set in 2000s Detroit and is where Mark and Sampson are <3
The Hunter game is set in Seattle 2007. I haven't posted much about this game yet but that one random character i posted abt like 30 mins ago is from here.
The Mage game is set in 1850s, in America, across various states as we are travelling through the west! This is where Porphyria, my mage is.
So far there hasn't been much overlap between the the hunter game and the others, other than some of the nosferatu currently in seattle had travelled there recently from Detroit (and they are having the Worst Luck in both cities... its a lil complicated but tldr the nosferatu primogen was caught lying abt something really important and skipped town and is now in seattle, and one of my Hunter PCs has it in his backstory that he blew up a major warren in Seattle and so is hated by the Nos lol)
But the vampire and mage game have more significant overlap:
Our mages basically destroyed the vampire Elysium in Independence MO, killing the prince and a lot of other kindred, and paved the way for a new Malkavain Prince, John, who by the 2000s is now the Malkavian Primogen in Detroit. Us baby mages tried to attack John directly and ended up having to cut a deal with him, and blood bonding... some woman to him that idk the significance of yet. I think it will become relevant that we did so. I WAS SOOO HYPE when we met him - I was like NO WAY IS THIS JOHN!?!? And it was! I met him in vampire before i did in mage. He's very strong now in Detroit! His thing is he is Obsessed with Being Normal and he actually is So Normal but like in a creepy way. My ST revealed he has at least 1 dot in every skill so he can be Normal at everything with a specialization in crafting paperweights. He dresses however is Normal for the time. So in 2000s Detroit he dresses like a grill dad. lol.
The other overlap is my ST revealed that a Tremere Mark knows in the vampire game is currently living in our Mage game as a mortal in California, and we may come across him. He told Mark his name was Kassidy, apparently he has a Korean name but it gets mispronounced so often he usually doesnt share it :( and he doesnt trust Mark enough to share it yet. In our vampire game, Kassidy seems to be interested in the psychology of vampires. He also seems very depressed. I don't know his story except that a song my ST based off of him is Message in a Bottle and "Heart' By Laura Branigan so I know there is Angst there waiting to be revealed... I'm kind of obsessed with him despite not knowing very much. I wanna meet him in our mage game SO BADLYYY
I think that is all the direct overlap other than that many vampires in the Detroit game are obviously alive and around in the mage game... but there won't be much overlap other than the above.

OUT OF THE MOUNTAIN OF DESPAIR, A STONE OF HOPE.
Name: Isaiah Warren
Nickname: Zey
Gender & Pronouns: Cis male & he/him
Age: 34
Occupation: owner of Paradise Point Resort & Spa
Origins: Briar Ridge, South Carolina
Neighborhood: Briar Ridge Hills
Relationship status: Single
SUMMARY: Born and raised in Briar Ridge, Isaiah Warren was thrust into the fight for equality at a young age. First through an introduction from his father and then through his own experiences growing up in the south. He wants badly to just live a quiet life on his own, maybe have a family some day, but can't let go of the things that happened to him and continue to happen to others around the country. Like some members of his own family tree Isaiah can't help but dip his toes into the waters of politics and civil rights. After graduating with a business degree from Harvard and family money in his pockets he bought the Paradise Point Resort & Spa and makes a point of giving underprivileged teens and young adults opportunities.
Welcome to Briar Ridge … [ ISAIAH WARREN ]! Who is known as [ ZEY ] and was recently seen leaving their home in [ BRIAR RIDGE HILLS ]. he is currently [ 34 ] years old. he resembles [ KENDRICK SAMPSON ] and is the [ OWNER ] at [ PARADISE POINT RESORT & SPA ]. They’re best known for [ paying it forward by giving troubled youth opportunities ] and also, [ being active in political movements that would create social change ]. What is really important to know about them is [ the reluctant warrior, instances in his life have pushed him to take more proactive stances when he'd rather live a quieter life ]. 
tw: racism & racial hate crime
In the year of 1999, the then nine year old sat next to his father in a courtroom down in Texas to witness the trials and convictions of capital hate crimes that three white supremacist men committed against a black man. His father wanted him to see it. A part of him cheered internally when two of the three men were sentenced to death and the third sentenced to a life behind bars; the other part of Isaiah Warren believed it was only the beginning.
 Sitting in the courtroom in 1999 during that trial was something that felt extremely personal to Isaiah. As a young black man that grew up in the deep south he was no stranger to racism and the violence that it breeds. Sitting there, sometimes fuming and sometimes emotional, as he listened to testimonies of what had happened on that night of June seventh in 1998, it tore him up with the memories of the stories his own family members had shared of the past that seemed to be colliding with the then present day hate crime that was so brutal it had clearly shaken the prosecutor. Who had later said it was the worst he had seen in his twenty year career.
Isaiah had been jumped a few times in his life by white boys his own age or sometimes a little older. He spent a youth heckled by others because of the color of his skin, and was pushed around and put down more times than he could have ever kept track of. The harassment only lessened when his talent in sports drove the teams he was on to winning records and championship games. 
The only thing worse than being black and not white was that neither side fully accepted him as either. To his black community that he grew up in and identified with, Isaiah often wasn't black enough. His skin was too light. His green eyes were wrong. They were reflective of his white mother, who always meant the world to him, but he was also too dark to really be apart of her world too.
It still wasn’t enough to stop the night of terror that ended up leaving him with a beaten cousin dying in his arms and he, himself, needing to spend several days in the hospital to recover from his own injuries. His cousin had gone out on a date with a girl he had thought to be single, and a date between two sixteen year olds, something harmless and fun, resulted in being beat to death by the girl’s ex boyfriend and his friends. Isaiah and his cousin were attacked from behind and the worst of all of it had been directed to his cousin, his own injuries were mostly heavily sustained in trying to protect his family, whom he was forced to watch meet his end simply because of the color of his skin.
The trauma of that night was something the then fifteen year old took years to move past, though it became a strong driving force in his life. Not only did he testify against the attackers, he had to sit in the courtroom and listen to the defense attorneys tear the case apart to nothing. He sat there crying over the injustice served the day the attackers and murderers were let off with misdemeanors and from then on decided to be the change and fight against what had happened that day in court.
Ever since he was old enough to understand his surroundings as a child, Isaiah was aware of the differences of his skin color versus that of others. As a black person there was never any escape to it. As a boy in grade school he learned of his father and his connection to the great Dr Martin Luther King Jr, when the curriculum in school focused on the civil rights movement. He went home and shared the things he learned in class with his father, and his old man pulled out an old box of photos to show himself as a boy close to Colin’s age standing with Dr King and holding his hand. Grandfather was in the background of the picture and they were in the middle of a march. It was in Isaiah's roots to fight for equality, and he still keeps that photo with him and like his father always did, he lights a candle on the anniversary of King’s death. It was those things, his own brutal experience and his family history that motivated him so strongly to ace his way through Harvard and to continue onto business.
The thing is, Isaiah knows he's fortunate and spends each day grateful for the fights and sacrifices his father, and family before him had made. His great grandfather was involved in politics and business which set the family up for generations to come due to real estate savvy. That fortune gave Isaiah opportunities many young people of color never get, so with his degree from Harvard he bought the resort in Briar Ridge and made it his mission to offer and awarded as many opportunities as he can.
With the social climate around the country at a tipping point, he reluctantly re-entered the fray. The memories of his rough past come to surface and he knows there's no way he couldn't be apart of the fight for equality.
Isaiah strongly believes that every single human being deserves, in the least, the basic human and civil rights and ever since he was fifteen years old it has been his fight in the world. As one day he would like children of his own, or dreams of it and hasn’t been able to bring a child into the world with the state it’s in.

Oscars 2023 Snubs: The Woman King Gets Shut Out Completely and The Academy Ought To Be Ashamed

While there were many expected recognitions during the 2023 Oscar nominations reveal on Tuesday (looking at you Angela Bassett, Ruth Carter, Rihanna and Brian Tyree Henry), there were also a plethora of stunning upsets—chief among them, the lack of recognition for The Woman King.

In a shocking turn of events, there was not one single award nomination given to anyone from the Gina Prince-Bythewood-helmed film. Viola Davis, who is usually a shoe-in during awards season,saw no love in the Best Actress category despite previous nominations at the Golden Globes, SAG, NAACP Image, and AAFCA Awards. The whole squad of stellar supporting actresses and actors like Lashana Lynch, Thuso Mbedu, Sheila Atim, Adrienne Warren and John Boyega were also shut out. This is a frustrating trend that’s been popping up time and time again this awards season. Prince-Bythewood was also nowhere to be found in the Best Director category which honestly begs the question: did we all watch the same movie?

Personally, I find it hard to believe and somewhat offensive that a story as rich, layered, and historically complex as The Woman King was shut out in its entirety. Cries against its glamourization of the intra-racial participation in the slave trade aside (because if you actually watched the film and didn’t let the opinions of detractors online stop you, you would’ve seen that they actually addressed this), the film encompassed so much dimension and intricate storytelling it feels like a puzzling miss for the Academy—even given it’s history of snubs. And if we’re to say that that the sanitization of atrocities or historical inaccuracies of a fictional film warrant non-support from viewers, then I hope we’re ready to apply this across the board to other white projects that have been inspired by moments in history that fall short of holistically depicting what actuallyhappened. (Titanic anyone?) 
ADVERTISEMENT
What’s also not lost on me is that this is a film starring deeply melanated Black women that’s centered around their plight, both communally and personally. This is also a central point to the Danielle Deadwyler-led film Till, which takes a turn away from the expected depictions of Black trauma and instead refocuses on humanizing a Black mother in her quest for justice for her slain son. Hollywood has notoriously categorized films starring Black folks about Black folks as “hard to sell” both domestically and abroad despite the success of projects like Black Panther and others proving otherwise. But I suppose involuted films centering Black women were a bit too deep or too uninteresting for viewers and the Academy this year.
And while we’re on the subject of snubs, I’d be remiss not to mention Ryan Coogler, who was also noticeably absent in the Best Director category (which is astonishing when you consider everything he and the cast had to deal with just to bring the long-awaited sequel to fruition.) Additionally, neither Black Panther: Wakanda Forever nor The Woman King received Oscar noms for Best Picture, though the latter did take home a win for that category at this year’s AAFCA Awards.

Insidious the last key movie a telecharger gratuitement

#Insidious the last key movie a telecharger gratuitement series
The first Insidious utilized Elise and her crew as supporting characters, and the series gradually brought them to the foreground, which is a smart move, since they’re what makes this otherwise generic PG-13 ghost franchise feel unique and interesting. Their goofy humor tends to be a bit much, especially when it comes to some unintentionally uncomfortable moments spurred on by a running joke where they awkwardly hit on a girl half their age, but some levity is welcome than none at all. Rainier also comes with her own set of comedy sidekicks, a bit of levity that’s sorely missing from The Conjuring films, in the form of two obnoxious but well-meaning techie ghost hunters named Specs (longtime James Wan partner-in-crime and screenwriter Leigh Whannell) and Tucker (Angus Sampson, who was terrific in Season 2 of Fargo). Elise is as adept at utilizing her paranormal gifts to connect to the spirit world as the Warrens, yet she has a relatable frailty about her, as if she’s using her services to help other people with their pesky ghost problems to deal with her own demons, literally and figuratively. The Insidious films, on the other hand, have Elise Rainier, played with subtle humanity and compassion by veteran character actress Lin Shaye. (The fact that the real people they’re based on are proven con artists doesn’t help matters.) Despite being played by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga, the characters are rarely written with much depth for the actors to sink their teeth into. The Conjuring universe has Ed and Lorraine Warren, whom I find to be entirely too self-serious, a bit smug and fairly interchangeable. The most important element to keep in mind while doing so is the paranormal expert characters themselves, our conduits into the spooky world that these movies inhabit. Hey, the formula obviously works-why mess with it, right? Since that’s the case, I don’t see much of a choice but to analyze the narrative and characters that surround those set pieces as the main approach to gauge the difference in quality between these films. At this point, after a significant number of entries in both franchises, it’s clear that we can’t expect the set pieces themselves to offer anything new and exciting.
#Insidious the last key movie a telecharger gratuitement movie
These demons rinse and repeat this plan in mind-numbingly episodic fashion, until they realize that the movie they’re in is reaching its second act break, which propels them to pull the cutest and most likable kid into the spirit world, forcing the experts to go into an afterlife that curiously look like a generic Halloween haunted house tour in order to save the poor rascal. They are both about a team of paranormal experts who help families get rid of evil spirits that have nothing better to do than lure unsuspecting, none-too-bright kids into dark rooms and basements, wait a ridiculously long time hiding in order to raise suspense as if they’re trolling their victims, before popping up to scare the bejeezus out of them before the screen cuts to black. In fact, I’d be fairly surprised if a crossover flick doesn’t happen sometime soon. As far as the general premises and overall technical moods of these films are concerned, they’re really not that different from one another. After popularizing torture porn with the Saw franchise during the early 2000s, Wan is now responsible for getting underway not one, but two PG-13 jump-scare ghost horror franchises: The Conjuring cinematic universe and the Insidious series. Any studio looking to kickstart a surefire horror franchise knows to hire Australian genre wunderkind James Wan and let him do pretty much whatever he wants.

PEN VERSE TYPEWRITER:  Is it best to hand print or type in the wording on a Notary certificate?  For writing on any legal form, legibility and permanence are critical. A typewriter probably has the edge over hand printing in legibility, but the ink affixed by a pen (especially a fountain pen) is usually more difficult to remove than that affixed by a typewriter. All things considered, it is probably best to fill out a certificate by hand, printing legibly with a fountain pen filled with black ink. This also provides a document examiner with ample samples of the Notary’s writing, in case the genuineness of the certificate is later challenged.  Learn more by joining us notaries of NC in our Thursday night live webinars all this month of December.
