Hard Data, Hollow Protests I highly disagree with majority of Mac Donald’s argument. Firstly, her inclination that officers “have more to fear from black men than black men have to fear” from the officers does not sit well with me. Although blacks may make up the highest percentage of cop-killers, blacks are more likely to be shot than whites. I suggest that since both facts are true to an extent, social culture and biases have become the driving force for both instances to play out as they are: Black men are more likely to kill cops, cops are more likely to kill black men.

Driven by the belief that space was bequeathed to them, the Native Americans feel justified in defending their land against the growing encroachment of the white man as the American landscape unfolds. Their motive is the premise that a higher authority has granted them the right to the space, and that the Great Spirit has created the landscape exclusively for them. Fueled by the formation of conflict over land, the Great Ottawa Chief, Pontiac, in his speech at Detroit, seeks to persuade the tribes, including the Ottawa, Huron, and Pottawatomi to agree to resistance. Invoking the words of the Delaware prophet, Neolin, Pontiac recounts the vision which he believes justifies resistance. Neolin urges the tribes to sever all relations to the customs
Sometimes characters in stories and real- life people learn the same lessons. In both The Outsiders wrote by S.E. Hinton and the short story “ The Boys Who Fought Hitler “ composed by Scholastic Scope, a similar theme is shared. Both the reader and the characters learn a lesson: to pave your own path and be yourself. In the book “ The Outsiders ” and “ The Boys Who Fought Hitler ” the stories share a similar theme, pave your own path and be yourself.
In the Glass Castle, Jeannette Walls analyzed her mother’s emotional breakdowns. In one instance, she notices “... the positive thoughts would give way to negative thoughts, and the negative thoughts seemed to swoop into her mind the way a big flock of black crows takes over the landscape, sitting thick in the trees and on the fence rails and lawns, staring at you in ominous silence” (Walls 418). Negative thoughts can consume one’s mind, whereas the positive thoughts are nugatory. The negative thoughts keep a person agonizing and stressing over it. This quote emphasizes how a negative mindset can make a person depressed or ill to be around.
As in any war, the Civil War created destruction in different parts of the countries’ structure. For instance, the Union destroyed southern crops, plantations, and entire cities. Moreover, hundreds of thousands of emancipated slaves rushed to Union lines as their masters fled the oncoming Union army (Foner). Therefore, by 1865, the government had the mission to rebuild the South; this is known as the Reconstruction period, where four major tasks has to be address: political, social, economic and infrastructure. The big question is how this process should be done.
Reconstruction was an attempt to rebuild the country after the Civil War and tried to end the hatred between the North and South. In Reconstruction, the South was getting ready to come back to the USA after the Civil War. Reconstruction was supposed rebuild the South physically, and it was supposed to change the South’s thoughts on full equality for all races. The South thought that whites should always be superior, and that full equality should never happen. The North thought that equality was what should happen.
In the year 1642, England was fighting a civil war that would decide whether Monarchy would rule, or England would become a commonwealth. What happened after the war influenced the 17th century in such a way that it changed everything. Firstly, England was able to create the one of the first professional armies and navies, they started to become a united nation, and The English Civil War was a spark to an explosion. The fuel too many other revolutions was lit. Therefore, the most important outcome of the English Civil War is the execution of King Charles I because England could create a professional army, they became a commonwealth, and they fueled other revolutions.
In life some feel the need to prove something to others. That they are better, stronger, or even more intelligent. Whatever the case may be people will go through extreme measures to prove themselves. But who do we really need to prove anything to? Is it our parents?
Bunny got an offer to play at a different school to get higher recognition and be an overall better basketball player. Although it was not the smartest decision for his friend's sake, I felt like his friends should have been supportive rather than upset that he “betrayed him”. The scholarship was to a private school called St. Sebastian, and which was an upscale school in the suburbs. Bunny said in the novel “I announced that I was transferring from Whitman (our neighborhood school) to St. Sebastians” That text evidence claims that Bunny wants to go to this upscale private school and hopes there's a chance to make it big in the basketball industry. Those statements show that bunny has a very hard dedication towards
It took just forty five days for United States citizens to acquiesce their rights to freedom and privacy for the sake of safety following the events of September 11, 2001. Forty five days is how long it took the United States Congress to pass a law that gave up the very concept of liberty upon which this country is founded. The morning sky was a brilliant shade of blue with not a cloud in sight in New York on that fateful day of September. That all changed at 8:45 AM when a Boeing 767 jet plane tore into the north tower of the World Trade Center. Eighteen minutes later, a second Boeing 767 bit into the sixtieth floor of the south tower.
Donna Tartt’s The Secret History tells the story of Richard Papen’s transfer from a small college in his hometown Plano, California, to an elite college in Vermont, Hampden College. During his first week, he becomes obsessively captivated by the five students in a highly selective Greek class and goes to extreme lengths to be accepted by the group’s members Henry Winter, Bunny Corcoran, Francis Abernathy, twins Charles and Camilla Macaulay, and their teacher Julian Morrow. This obsession and desire to please causes Richard’s involvement in two murders that distort his idea of morality. The novel is best analyzed by applying psychoanalytical and feminist theory to the characters with critical articles providing additional information and showing a different perspective. I have chosen to analyze the narrator, Richard Papen, the group leader, Henry Winter, and the only major female character, Camilla Macaulay.
Focusing on the early discussions, to the point where the U.S. entered World War II and began their debate about how to fight the Germans. A coalition force, planning and fighting as a team led to many advantages and disadvantages that ended many times with compromise. The sometimes heated planning conferences and meetings that led to debate and arguments about how to successfully fight and defeat the Germans was tenuous at best. The road was filled with obstacles, but the Allies navigated their way to a victory over the German led Axis Powers.
