Week 10 Tianxing Sun A02

In this week, I have read the article "Conclusion, Academics Awaken: Power, Resistance, and Being Woke" from our professor, Valverde. I think this reading make me think many points of my thinking. In additional to the changing in viewpoints, I have more feeling of encouragement from the reading. This week, World's International Women's Day was on March 8th. I have heard many activities during that day. Stephen Curry, invited the girl who suggested the sports wearing company Under Armer, to set up the girls basketball shoes, to his party of the Women's Day. However, in China, many girls said that they don't like this memory festival. In Chinese, "Women's Day" are more likely to be "Madam's Day". Many girls believe they did not get married. They believe they are young, and have not get married. They don't want to called as madams. For this reason, these girls prefer the name "girls day". Nevertheless, another people considers that, "girls day" is not respected to those women who fight for women's right. This example, shows us that we should keep thinking, and keep encourage more people to explain their stories. 

Question: What should we do, to help more people leave their pants?
