Synopsis "What Happened To AMELIA EARHART?: The Truth Behind Her Disappearance (in English)"
What Happened To Amelia Earhart?What happened to Amelia Earhart has topped unsolved mystery lists for decades. She is known by most as the woman who vanished without a trace over the Pacific ocean, never to be seen again. She certainly is that. However, Amelia Earhart is so much more than just an unsolved mystery. She was an influential trailblazer, an inspirational feminist, and a woman who faced all challenges without fear.In the 1920s, aviation was still in its infancy. Men had not yet staked their claim as the dominant gender in the field, as they had in so many others. This by no means made men and women equal in the pursuit of conquering the sky. Women were still expected to settle down and start families rather than making careers for themselves., especially in more adventurous pursuits. However, it did mean that women could get a foot in the door, and write their own stories in the history of aviation before it became dominated by men.Amelia Earhart was not only a famed woman pilot, looking to make her mark in aviation, she was also an avid supporter of other women looking to do the same. She took every opportunity to boost fellow aviatrices, and encourage women to follow their passions.She said, "Women should do for themselves what men have already done-occasionally what men have not done-thereby establishing themselves as persons, and perhaps encouraging other women toward greater independence of thought and action. Some such consideration was a contributing reason for my wanting to do what I so much wanted to do."Earhart lived her life by this quotation; always encouraging women to break the glass ceiling in all areas of aviation and beyond, while setting astonishing records and performing incredible feats herself.The mystery of Earhart's disappearance is certainly interesting, but what is even more fascinating is the story of a woman who relentlessly chased her dreams in a world that constantly expected her to settle down; a woman who set an astonishing number of records for women pilots, but never begrudged another aviatrix an accomplishment; a woman who died pushing boundaries and opening doors for pilots everywhere.This is her story.
