SUSAN B. ANTHONY

In my opinion, Susan B. Anthony was a wonderful and very interesting woman who worked for dignity of people. It is very interesting how she campaigned for the abolition of slavery, how she wanted to rescue the women’s rights to their own property and earnings, and also, her work and efforts for women’s labor organizations.

I discovered something that, really, is very interesting in this woman. She wanted to open the possibility women can vote. Even though, she was arrested for voting in 1872. She has become a historical hero in the united states because she has give the dignity to women.

FOOD INFORMATION

The food information comes from different places or persons. First of all, some people know so much about food and they have a wide knowledge about the food ingredients, its benefits for the body and the mind. Also, they know the elements that are healthier to us. For instance, I can name my parents who are very good cook, and of course, other relatives.
Secondly, the food information comes from the packages which cover the products. In these packages we can read the features of the product, its scientific ingredients, and how we can prepare it or use it in the moment to cook.

This kind of information about my food affects what I eat because depending of the ingredients I chose if the food is tasty and healthy to me. For example, if I read in the ingredients a high onion content I will not eat that food, or somebody tells me that the food comes with spicy parts I can not eat it either. Therefore, it’s very important to me to know the information about the food I like to eat.

Polish Heroes

Dear grandchild


This letter is for you and I want to tell you how I could survive to this tragedy. As a Jewish man I was persecuted by German military army. They wanted to kill us for different political and economics reasons. We were afraid everyday because in each corner we could find the death by German government. That period in my life was terrible and I will never be able to forget everything I lived.

I was living with my family in Poland. My wife and my two children. We didn’t have many friends there. We were almost alone in that country, especially during the war.
My wife was working as a house keeper for a very wealthy family and I was working in a sell-car company as a manager. My children, all of them, just were studying. But, someday, the war became stronger and the persecution more intensive. Therefore, my wife had to leave her job and we had to move to another city.

In the new city, we met a wonderful polish man who provides support and help during that period of war. I met his family and the huge house where they lived. When the German soldiers went to the city looking for us, they couldn’t find us because this family sent us to a subway behind the house and the soldiers couldn’t discover the place where we were staying.

Thanks this polish family, I am alive together with my wife and children. I am working with this man in his factory and my wife is stayed with the children.

Someday you will tell the same story somebody else.

Sincerely
