Equal Rights Amendment
At the National Women's Conference Alice Paul and her supporters proposed the Equal Rights Amendment to the Congress. The ERA wanted equal rights for people of different race and every gender. The amendment had to be ratified by 38 states before being qualified to pass. It also had to be in affect for 2 years after ratification date. The women wanted this in affect because they were tired of being treated differently than the men just because they were different gender. -
Equal Rights Amendment
This event was a huge change to history and women and people of different races life, and still to this day. If we still didn't have equal rights right now, all the women would be even more furious. Now women can participate in the same things men can and be a part of society. If you were a women with a family, this change could better your families life, because you could get a job and bring in some income for your family. It changed peoples life tremendously, now women are appreciated. -
Equal Rights Amendment
Right now, in 2017, men and women and people of every race have equal opportunity by law to take part in events. Women being aloud to have a job, helps out a lot. If only men can have a job, then some businesses would shut down because not enough men want to take on this job. -
Equal Rights Amendment
Today women are aloud to hold higher positions, such as President. This is a huge result of the ERA. Hilary Clinton ran for President, one of the first females to make it that far in an election, which is a huge accomplishment. Before the amendment took place she would have never been aloud to run. This event made the world better. -
Equal Rights Amendment
I would have wanted to attend this event, because as a female it is cool that brave women stood up for what was right, and changed the future for women and people of different race. This showed that women weren't going to lay down and let the men walk all over them just because they are different gender, we are just as equal. The only thing I would change would be that this was in affect sooner. Besides that, the amendment was a huge success. -

On March 29, 1979 was a day that shaped college basketball and two future NBA stars. This was the game of all games. The basketball game took place in Salt Lake City, Michigan state versus Indiana State. Michigan State had Magic Johnson and Indiana state had Larry Bird. This game was going to be tough. -

This championship would be the start of what we know it as March Madness. Nobody knew how the game was going to go. Michigan ended up winning the close, intense game. Later on down the road they both went to play in the NBA. -
The start of March Madness
This game changed basketball because it started the March Madness and today everyone all over the nation watches it. This game was really cool because looking back from today everybody remembers that championship. The game was intense all the way through and nobody knew what would happen next. -
The start of March Madness
Also it was neat that Magic Johnson was African American and he still was able to participate in a sport, let alone be the best and lead his team. This game made everyone excited because now every year in March there would be this tradition to carry on. -
The start of March Madness
Since this event people all over the world watch March Madness, which brings in money to the owners and to businesses. Businesses make money because lots of people go to sports bars to watch big games. Now anyone is aloud to play in the NBA no matter the race.
I would have wanted to be there, because I love basketball and it is fun to watch. It would have been a blast to watch one of the most talked about games. Who wouldn't want to tell everyone that you were at the start of March Madness. -
The start of March Madness
The only thing I would have wanted to change was that March Madness was thought of sooner, otherwise it was a huge success. -
The first Macintosh Computer
Steve Jobs created the first Mac computer, he never knew that this one computer could take him so far. Steve claims he took a huge gamble with this computer. He created this to make web surfing easier and typing. The computer had a Hypercard installed in it, the card made it easier for people to type, text and use images. It made the world a World Wide Web. Now today a lot of things we use today is made of technology. Steve's headquarters for Apple is located in Cupertino, California. -
The first Macintosh computer
The world has changed tremendously since we are capable of so much more because technology's abilities have went up. Now Apple has many locations all over the globe and every day they are working on a new device. They have created 7 apple phones. Now we have laptops instead of the big bulky computers. A lot of businesses have computers to do the work for them and before computers the people had to do the work y themselves. Now with technology it is easier to solve crimes and find criminals. -
The first Macintosh computer
I think this event was unique because Steve created this computer and he never knew this was the start of the turning point in technology. I think that everyone was excited when this came out because everyone loves when a knew item is out and everyone is talking about it, like the iPhone. -
The first Macintosh computer
Now with technology, it is faster and easier to solve a crime. Now they can take someone's fingerprint and enter it in the system and it finds the match and it's that simple. A lot of businesses use computers and softwares to make it easier to work. This project, I typed on a computer and was able to present it using technology, just think how boring school would be without being able to use technology. A huge result would be that our world is more efficient since the creation of technology. -
The first Macintosh computer
I would have wanted to attend this event because then they didn't have new creations this big that could change the whole world. It is exciting when they create a new iPhone so I couldn't imagine something this big being created. The outcome is so important because in the beginning Steve did not know he would have many new items made and new offices all over. It was important that his company was successful because if it wasn't then we would not have any Apple products around. -
The first Macintosh computer
The only thing I would have changed was that the computer wasn't so bulky and that they didn't have issues with them. -
The Berlin Wall is knocked down
The Berlin Wall separated East and West Berlin, Germany. It was built on August 13, 1961. It was there to stop the flow of emigrants. You never crossed over unless a guard took you over. If you attempted, you were shot. The guards stood over and watched with weapons in there hands. The wall separated families and friends from each other. The wall was knocked down when the head of the east German Communist Party announced people could cross the border freely. -
The Berlin Wall is knocked down
The wall was knocked down because people were in civil unrest. Some people climbed right over the wall and some were hesitant, they thought it was a trick.
This event was important because families were split up and on opposite sides of the wall and didn't see there families for several years. If you were a young child, you would have to be able to survive without your family. When the wall was knocked down people could not believe it, they were excited because they could see their family. -
The Berlin Wall is knocked down
The wall had so much of an effect on history because it was one of the most powerful symbols of the Cold War. It was such an important effect because during the time it was a huge reform in politics. While the wall was put up people lost there jobs so the economy went down. This also caused people to lose their livelihoods and be depressed because they got trapped on the wrong side. When the wall was knocked down, the economy rose again. -
The Berlin Wall is knocked down
After this the west was no longer the side with the large salaries and political freedom and the large economy. Since this event Germany is back to being all equal but people are still upset that they lost money and jobs and even family and friends. -
The Berlin Wall is knocked down
I would have wanted to attend this event because I know how bad they want to see their families and how long it has been so this day is very special for them. The only thing I would have changed to make it better was that the wall wasn't up as ling and people were not killed during this time. -

Mae Jemison first African American in space
I would have wanted to attend this event because she was the first woman to ever do this and it was just an awesome moment. The only thing that could have been done different was the hate other races showed towards her. -
The Brady Law
This law made people wait five business days before receiving their handgun while the sellers checked their backgrounds and personal records. This made it a little bit safer to trust people with a firearm. If The people find anything alarming in their background they will not receive the fire arm. This was in affect because untrustworthy people were getting their hands on weapons which is dangerous for the surrounding people. The Congress passed this bill to have a more safe environment. -
The Brady law
This event was important because it gave people who sold guns more feeling of relief knowing the persons background before giving them the weapon. It also made it a bit harder for criminals to get a gun. I think it was unique because nobody has ever brought this to the attention of the world before but now this is not in affect. I bet that some people were upset because they wanted to own a firearm and couldn't because their background. Some were excited because they could have more trust. -
The Brady Law
I think when this was in affect it made the streets safer and made it harder for a criminal to get a firearm. When they checked the background people with bad record can not get a firearm so they were not aloud to legally own one. I think the world is different because people are aware that you should think about your actions or there is consequences, -
The Brady Law
I would have wanted to attend this event because I think this law should be in place today because it would make it safer, and untrustworthy people would not get the gun from a store if they have a bad background. The only thing I would change is that the law was still in place today. -

People contributed to the country after, people hung the American flag everywhere and people appreciated it more. -

Since this event Americans contributed to coming back from this event. People flew the flag as symbol of patriotism and some people wore pins and things to show how much they loved our country. Sports postponed games, and celebrities set up benefit concerts to honor the country and to give back. People all over the world participated in moments of silence. The world is different because the world made sure they felt safer and the country good prevent attack in the future. -
9-11

Change the future
It is impossible to change the future for everyone but at least I have the power to change my future. I would first start by trying to help the less fortunate people who can't afford some of the necessary things. I could start by working with a charity or giving items to people in need. It would make me happy if I could put a smile on their faces. It would be nice for them to wake up without having to worry about struggling to support their family. It feels good to do things for others. -
Change the future
Changing the world is important because if I could make life better for me and other people I would. You could never make the world perfect because there is no such thing as perfect. I would try to just contribute to the community and be involved in anything I can to help out the place I live in. Being involved is good for the community, it makes it bette and you can meet new people. Doing this would make me happy and feel safe. It's good to be involved, it gives you opportunities in life.
