Thank you And here's your shmoop du jour brought to

00:05

you by catchy slogans So your shmoop du jour is

00:09

brought to you by you shmoop du jour it's like

00:12

slow conception Someone get christopher nolan on the phone All

00:15

right check out the excerpt All right now given the

00:17

diamond gonna wantto here's our question Which of the following

00:20

best describes the public reaction to movements like the one

00:23

described in the excerpt and your potential answers are resistant

00:27

Remember Well let's think how does the general public usually

00:32

act when somebody suggests changing the way things have been

00:36

done for thousands of years And it ain't pretty Oh

00:39

yeah option b isn't usually the case and it certainly

00:42

wasn't in elizabeth's day either After all if the public

00:45

had been receptive and opened a gradual change while america

00:48

probably wouldn't have needed the civil rights movement of the

00:50

twentieth century Yeah we're pretty sure no one wants to

00:53

spend their time pro testing Unless you really love thinking

00:56

01:05

while some supported elizabeth and her seneca falls crew this

01:11

society at the time probably wouldn't have been grated helping

01:14

elizabeth with catchy slogans anyway All right we're getting closer

01:17

with answers See there was most certainly some skepticism or

01:21

make that heaping mounds of skepticism or a mountain of

01:25

skepticism But really this one doesn't describe public reaction strongly

01:29

enough Most people flat out rejected rights for women and

01:31

minorities kind of like if the oppressed groups were toddlers

01:35

asking to drive the family car It just seemed like

01:38

a no brainer toe Just say no Well that means

01:40

a is by far the best answer More underrepresented people

01:43

in america spoke out during the eighteenth century the more

01:46

they were met with hateful opposition and a few really 00:01:50.379 --> [endTime] non catchy slogans
