African mask
The mask I've choose was made by the Bobo people, the Bobo people live in Eastern Burkina Faso.The mask is 27 inches long and its made out of painted wood the paint was made out off plants.The Bobo carve masks symbolize animals or spirits of the bush. They're worn during ceremonies associated with a new crop and funerals. When danced the mask is attached to a black or red dyed grass costume that starts from under the neck and covers the dancer's body to his feet. This mask represents the tribe with its paterns and the way it was designed colored and carved. I choose this mask because i liked the way it looked and thought that it must have been hard to make, plus i liked how a mask can say so much about a tribe, i learned that every tribe has a different way of carving and painting their masks and thats what it makes it unique.
My proverb: Do not follow a person who is running away
Do not follow a person who is running away means that a person who runs away from difficult situasions is not right and must not be copied. Difficult situasion might be to try to find answers to problems, to homework and etc.

Queen Elizabeth the first of England was highly educated and she also engaged succesfully in brutal wars against Spain. Indira Gandhi, ruled India in a succesfull way.

Scientist Marie Curie was awarded the Nobel prize for discovering radioactive elements.Women managers, like ministers, school principals, work together and cooperate with men today and in the past.
Real life facts lead to the conclusion that women are strong as men in time of peace and war.
