Extra Credit #2

I went to the launching of the Center for Social Justice last night and I wasn't able to arrive until 6:15 because I had practice until 6. I unfortunately didn't get to hear any of the speakers talk, but I got to sit and watch the video that they had playing in the background. The video was filled with quotes from different people and also had photos of women from all over the world. I picked up a few papers and I also signed a few petitions. I'm extremely interested in women being raped as a tool of war ever since I took Gender and War in the spring semester. It was a very eye opening class and my passion grew to somehow get involved and so I added WAGS as my minor. I'm so glad that the Center for Social Justice is opening because students at OU will be able to have access to what's going on around the world. I'm very excited to see it grow and prosper into a great part of OU.
