Since I have gotten home I have been trying to put into
words the feelings of everything that happened over the last week. I had
approximately 35 hours of equal rights training. I spoke at the United Nations
and I met some amazing people.
I feel very torn with how to move forward with this
information. I know I haven’t processed it all. So below I’ll make a list of
what I do know.
1.
Women need to be exposed to all types of
employment including STEM and Tech at a very young age
2.
Men need paternity leave
3.
Not enough people know that ISIS is paying for
their war against us with women who are trafficked and I want to fix that.
4.
The United States isn’t as good as aware of
equality as other countries
5.
I want to work abroad
6.
I want to study abroad
7.
I, as well as others, don’t have a single story
8.
The international community recognizes the need
for women in the military more than the United States and that message needs to
get to those women still serving some how.
9.
Those who are in fear of the fate of our future
need to meet the four other women I was on this trip with.
1. I
need to learn more.
I can’t wait to further process this and learn more about
these issues.
