Answer:

The black women of Hidden Figures are constantly pushing — whether it’s Johnson pushing Harrison to allow her to attend Pentagon briefings, or Vaughn stealing a library book to learn Fortran, the programming language for the IBM computer threatening to put her out of a job. After a librarian informed her that the book came from a part of the library restricted only to whites, Vaughn tucked it away and took it anyway, because how else was she going to learn?

But even common interests can’t serve those who can’t see them, and in that regard, Vivian Mitchell, the obstructionist head of the white computers played by an icy Kirsten Dunst, becomes a cinematic metonym for the 53 percent of white women who voted for Donald Trump, an admitted sexual assaulter who said women who have abortions must be punished for doing so. Mitchell is so determined to block Vaughn and her fellow computers from achieving any sort of progress — and so interested in maintaining a racist status quo she’s convinced benefits her — that she ends up undercutting herself in the process. When NASA needs programmers for its new IBM computer, it’s Vaughn’s team who is armed with knowledge of Fortran, while Mitchell’s group is left in the cold.

Besides communicating about the power of common interests, Hidden Figures demonstrates why sneering dismissively at “identity politics” or using the term as a pejorative amounts to little more than hogwash. When you stand in the way of progress for women and people of color, you are only hobbling yourself. Hidden Figures offers a beautiful illustration of how hollow the call to “Make America Great Again” really rings, because an America without black women isn’t just an America without the women who birthed, nursed, and raised so many white children at the expense of their own. There will be no white ethnostate like the one white nationalist Richard Spencer dreams of creating because an America without black women is an America without its most educated demographic in the workforce. It is an America devoid of a group, who instead of pouting and throwing hissy fits as automation threatens to make its jobs obsolete, instead picks itself up, dusts itself off, and answers with steely resolve and a thirst for more education, as Dorothy Vaughn did.

An America without black women is an America lacking the energy, the bravery, the optimism, and the determination to power its wildest dreams, like sending a man hurtling into space to orbit the earth and then bringing him safely back home — you know, its moon shots.

There have been several accidents in your school recently. The principal ask you to write a report on these accidents. In your r
ddd [48]

Answer:

This report aims to inform about the accidents in our school during the past months along with suggestions on how to avoid them.

A recurrent accident is people slipping on the stairs due to the lack of an anti-slip surface on the steps. The injuries have been minimum, but they could be worse depending on how the student falls, the number of people on the stairs, and the height. To prevent this accident, the school should put an anti-slip surface on the stairs. Also, the steps' edges should be yellow to make them noticeable.

The second most common accident is related to doors. These close too fast and hit students that have their hands occupied to grab them. Also, many students have hurt their fingers because they tried to stop the door from closing. As a result, their fingers got between the door and the frame. A change that the school could do to prevent these accidents is to install a door closer that makes the door move slowly and swiftly.

Another accident that has happened is people falling from their seats since they are broken or have loose screws. Students now check their chairs before using them, which leads to a delay in the class's start since the student has to find a new chair or is thoroughly checking it.  The school's staff should check, and replaced the seats.

In conclusion, the accidents in our school have not been fatal, but they still represent a risk for our safety. By doing the suggested changes and repairs, the school would become a much safer place.

Explanation:

In this report, we describe the accidents that took place in our school. In the first paragraph, we introduce the topic. Then, we proceed to write an accident per section, describing them in detail and suggest how to avoid them.  Lastly, we make a conclusion where we give a personal opinion regarding the situation in our school.
