Many people wonder why Jo starts a school for boys..even though Little Women mentions how much Jo loves boys many times. In Little Men, we can see how Jo and Friedrich wish that their boys grow to respect women, so could Jo starting a school for boys actually be a feminist act? There are lots of people who say that Friedrich forced Jo to start a school or Friedrich forced Jo to become a teacher. None of that happens in the novel. So have these people even read Little Women? In the book, Jo is the one who says that she wants to start a school. Her exact words are Quote "even before I met my Fritz, I used to think how when I made my fortune and no one needed me at home, I'd hire a big house and pick up some poor fore-long little lads who hadn't any mothers and take care of them and make life jolly for them before it was too late. I see so many of them going to ruin for want of help, and at the right minute. I love them, so to do anything for them, I seem to feel their wants and sympathize with their troubles. I know I should so like to be a mother to them". End quote. In the scene in the book where Jo explains her plans on starting school, she clearly says that what she wants to do is to have a flock of boys that she can nurture, she can take care of them and can be a mother to them and love them. A lot of people erase the maternal elements from Jo's character.Show book

Chicago is a world-class city, but it is also a city in crisis. Crime is up, schools have repeatedly shut down due to conflict between City Hall and the powerful teachers' union, and COVID-19 only deepened the entrenched poverty, institutional racism, and endless tug of war between the city's haves and have nots. For four years, the person at the center of this storm was Lori Lightfoot. A groundbreaking figure—the first Black, gay woman to be elected mayor of a major city and only the second female mayor of Chicago—she knew the city was at a critical turning point when she took office in 2019. But the once-in-a-lifetime challenges she ended up facing were beyond anything she or anyone else saw coming. Chicago Tribune reporter Gregory Royal Pratt offers the first comprehensive behind-the-scenes look at the tumultuous single term of Mayor Lightfoot and the chaos that roiled the city and City Hall as she fought to live up to her promises to change the city's culture of corruption and villainy, reform its long-troubled police department, and make Chicago the safest big city in America.Show book
