rest of ch 17

The rest of chapter was about the haitian revolution and other revolutions that happened in various areas. The haitian revolution was significant because of the successful slave revolt that went on. It was crazy to read that it was the only successful one in world history. the number of slaves dominated the population. We played the game today in class which was quite interesting. I just wish we could have relayed answers to you before the game ended so the girls team would get points. the game was fun though but a tad unfair but I guess that was the point trying to be made. Im glad we finally figured it out because we were at least able to break even with zero compared to the 15 negative points we started out with. But the game was fun and i liked that it was a good way to study the material that would be on the midterm. Are we going to play it again before the midterm with questions from the beginning chapters? I think it would be a good idea. Anyway the chapter was also about the feminist movement. Females began to get a bigger role in societies. They started getting jobs. I thought it was interesting how they were scared that their reproductive systems would get damaged. Its something we dont think about very rarely in todays society. This chapter was overall very interesting and I really enjoy the game.
