Answer 1

Topic: The American Revolution

I want to pick women as a minority group because women played very critical role in the American revolution and proved themselves that they can do the things that man can do and made their position very strong after this revolution.

At the time of American Revolution the condition of women was not so good and they were not treated equally and discriminated on the basis of their sex . If i got the opportunity to take part in the revolution i will make sure that i could give my full support to the revolutionaries according to my social status. I will help in domestic economy by helping in different businesses . Boycotting British goods,making goods for American soldiers and also spying on the British . I will make sure that every women participates in supporting Americans,many direct and indirect roles are there which can be helpful in revolution like nurse,maid,cooks,serving the armed force,sewing uniforms,blankets for the soldiers and making bullets for the.

The type of response or reward i would expect after taking part in the revolution would be equality between men and women .And my support and participation will prove that women are not weak they can do anything for their country . I will expect from the government to make laws in favour of women to improve their condition in society . I would expect positive response from every people of the society . Every people should get equal rights of every fields and there should be no difference on the basis of gender,color,caste in the country.
