  • Bell Work-1.) Based on your prior knowledge which group is Colleen Moore talking about in this excerpt? 2.) Why do you think that Colleen Moore found it so easy to identify with the group she is referencing in this excerpt? Do you think many young ladies feel this way today? 3.) Judge the value of Colleen Moore’s statement where she says “I don’t know if I realized as soon as I began seeing them that they represented the wave of the future…”. Why do you think she referred to these women as the “wave of the future” instead of comparing them to the progressive women who fought for women’s equality in the past?
