Human’s physical progressionHuman achievement or progress is illustrated in the image, as the ape evolves steadily into becoming a human.Theoretically human achievement can be described as the progression of the human race in terms of culture, science and politics.

Page 3: Human evolution

Human Achievement can be described as well as being a step to forgiveness, and change for the greater good of the people. As many lives were lost in colonial and Puritan times, innocent blood was shed with the justification of them being “casualties of progress”(Howard Zinn)

Discrimination has dramatically reduced from

the Salem witch trials whose ridicule is now celebrated today during Halloween.

Past and presentFrom the days of Black

American slavery. Generations have lived to see this immorality

come to pass.

‘’Casualties of progress” (Howard Zinn)

• This image describes a South African protest, with a brother carrying his dying sister after being shot by the white soldiers.

Progress cannot be achieved without some sacrifices along the way. The severity of past inhumane crimes has led to the extensive reforms and fight against injustice and discrimination today.

“We place our vision of a new constitutional order for South Africa on the table not as conquerors, prescribing to the conquered. We speak as fellow citizens to heal the wounds of the past with the intent of constructing a new order based on justice for all.”

Nelson Mandela walking in the streets of South Africa, achieved freedom.

Native Americans are recognized more and more since the days of Columbus, for playing a major role in American history.

Half of the Indian population was killed by the first European settlers and they were not regarded as having any part in American history.

Human progress in this case is shown in the change and evolving of ideas.

• The attainment of a goal or goals one sets for themself.

• Achievement is driven by initiative.Many can finish the race but only one can come up first. When one sets a goal for themselves, it is up to them whether they want to come up first or just merely finish the race.

Page 11: Human evolution

My Personal achievement

• Graduating from High school with credentials that got me into this prestigious school in the United States.

• Something very few people can accomplish.

That’s me

Page 12: Human evolution

• My parents have been the most influential people in my life and where I am today can be credited to them. Teaching me valuable lessons in my life that nothing comes for free and to get to the next level you need perseverance and determination.

• These are all necessary qualities in reaching your goals.

Factors that influenced my success

Page 13: Human evolution

• Family, culture, social status and environment contribute largely to a person’s success or failure.

• It is what one chooses to do with these different factors in their life that attribute to their individual achievements.

Components that influence individual achievement

Human achievement can be measured by our devotion to whatever it is that we believe in and being true to oneself

• This nature can be truly seen by reviewing the life of Sojourner Truth, once a slave.

• But died free.

Page 15: Human evolution

• Sojourner Truth made the best of every circumstance she found herself in.

• Although she was a slave, she strived to be the best slave she could be to her master.

• “Her ambition and desire to please were so great”

Sojourner Truth’s most profound characteristic.

Page 16: Human evolution

• Sojourners speech “And ain’t I a woman” became a symbol for women’s movement towards equality and rights to vote.

• She inspired “the moral responsibility to speak out against the evils of slavery and prompted more women, black and white, to enter public life”.

Sojourner Truth’s Achievements.

This image shows a tributary statue of her by the First Lady Michelle Obama and other highly esteemed women in politics.

• Our greatest achievement yet as the human race is that we have reached equilibrium with the capacity of our intelligence, whereby we know we can attain whatever it is we put our minds to.
