To continue the thoughts from my previous tweet, women struggle with the social normality of victim blaming. Giving back the power to women through speaking out against sexual harassment and assault is a necessary task that must be conquered. 10/10 #soc308

I spent my life working in sociology because I believed I could help young women. Human trafficking and sexual harassment is prevalent within society, and protecting these women is a must. 9/10 #soc308

When working with the Woman’s International League for Peace and Freedom, I fought for feminism and peace in my community and across the country. We made great strides towards these topics. #soc308 6/10

As many of you know, I lived to better my community. I never studied under anyone. But someone I looked up to was, Thomas Carlyle. His quote;

“The greatest faults, I should say, is to be conscious of none.”

had a great influence on me and my purpose. #soc308 5/10

My theories mainly focused on poverty and social struggles. I focused on a Mesolevel of Analysis within the 18th and 19th centuries! #soc308 4/10

My book, Twenty Years in Hull House focuses on my how I was able to start this project! The stories of poverty, social challenges, and abuse help elaborate on how important this was to me and my community. #soc308 3/10

Back when I was around 27 years old, my dear friend Ellen Gates Starr and I traveled to London & visited Toynbee Hall! As a social worker, I was so impressed! I decided to create the Hull House here in Chicago to help underprivileged people around me! #soc308 2/10
