In Women Who Spoke Up, they had to fight as hard as they could to be heard or noticed by the government at the time. Women were always kept silent, they had no say in any activities except for chores at home or with children. When the 20th century came around, the women had enough. They spoke about any subject they wanted, no matter what the outcome was. They displayed their true emotions to the public to let everyone know that Women matter. Different kinds of jobs brought together women who had enough. Being in Slavery, journalism, even a labor activist had came with threatening to the women. They had enough, it was time for them to show women’s true colors.

Answer:
Little is to say to Floyd's friends and family in such a painful moment. However, I do believe that his death has had a powerful impact and them knowing that it might be able to change the world as we know it, could provide them some comfort.
Explanation:
The police violence against George Floyd is no different from any other African American experience with the police, and it saddens me that only because this case became filmed and viral online, is that people are now paying attention.
The protests feel like an eruption that could not be avoided, because impunity has gone too far, and people are rightfully angry. And the police brutality against those protesting is only one more proof of that rightfulness.
I feel that at this point is time to listen to African Americans and make sure that governmental policies are applied to fix the inherent racism in our society, not only by the police but also in every microaggression we all reproduce in our everyday lives.
I´m scared that these events may not be enough, that eventually the media will stop focusing on this issue. It´s on every one of us to keep this conversation going, to make sure policies are changed, to vote for those who believe in equality, and to revise our own behaviors to ensure change happens.
