I was twelve at the time when the incident occurred, and on my way from my recent trip to visit my mother and family. I had to wait to be escorted to the entrance to my airplane by a flight attendant by the same flight I’m taking to return back to the United States. When it was time to go through the series of security checkups that had been performed, I was in an unstable emotional state. As I patiently waited for the flight attendant, I allowed my eyes to wander around the airport. Then, I noticed two young men were struggling with an elderly lady in the wheelchair. I inched nearby little by little and caught on their conversation. The two young men were two security guards, and they found some bag-like texture when lightly searching the

Let’s look at what happen post 9/11. After it’s devastation, the Department of Homeland Security was created to assist in fighting the “war” against terrorism. The DHS implemented many “strategies” to help fight this war, including increasing airport security. American parents protested that TSA agents were groping their kids, and “(Janet) Napolitano (former DHS Secretary) defiantly retorted that if people did not want their children groped, they should yield and use the unpopular full-body machines – the machines being sold by her predecessor, (Michael) Chertoff” (Turley, 3).

Terrorists shattered America's sense of safety. The federal government created Transportation Security Administration (TSA), shortly after the attacks. Before September 11, 2001, airports did not have an ongoing system in place to make sure that the flight was going to be safe. The security inside of the airplane has also changed to prevent hijack planes. From 9/11 forward the cockpit will remain locked for the entire flight with only the pilots in there.

Do you shop at Target? Do you use their bathrooms? Should transgendered humans be allowed to use whichever one fits their identity at that exact moment? Well this might be a question you don’t sit and ponder about, but in the past 4 weeks, this conversation has been the hype all over the United States. Male, Female, or even both, I personally don’t care which bathroom you use.

Some people in the crowd screamed, and I saw some take out a sort of strange rectangular shaped device and point at Buttercup and I. However, I didn 't have time to wonder what it was; bringing a thief to justice was my top priority right now. Then I saw it. The staircase was moving. Gosh, what has technology come these days?

Many were prosecuted and convicted following post 9/11, simply based upon suspicion alone. At airports, Muslims were treated no differently. Many of times, they were interrogated, searched, and held for hours, all for no justifiable reason. Even today, fifteen years later, Muslims are still discriminated and held responsible for the actions of a few. According to Ethan A. Huff (2011), a staff writer for Natural News, this is exactly what happened to 35-year-old Shoshana Hebshi, a woman of Arab and Jewish descent, who was traveling home on a passenger plane on the ten-year anniversary of 9/11.

This shows that all flight members did not receive equal treatment as one another. As some Middle Eastern passengers began being removed from flights due to more controversial and fear, the inequality became greater. Security was made more direct towards certain ethnic groups and it was evident that not everybody was treated equally. It showed that people were still being accused without a justified

Let’s set the scene; you are in a plane, 30,000 feet in the air awaiting to get to Florida for your yearly vacation. You are enthusiastic to see your cousins for the first time, go swimming in the ocean, and ride some roller coasters. But, suddenly, a man stands up in the backseat with an AR-15 yelling a derogatory slur. Everybody freaks out, yelling and screaming for the flight attendants, but before you know it you hear a loud, deafening ring and see nothing but white. And it could have all been prevented at the airport security line.

On the other side, the same 6ft tall TSA woman was waiting. She asked me step over to the side for a public full body pat down as my daughter and four TSA men stood within feet of me and watched. What bothered me the most was not what was happening to my sister but how everyone else looked satisfied with what the TSA woman was doing to us. Along the back wall, our luggage was going thru its own security check. For what, you ask?

The Power of Storytelling When telling a story, it is important to have good listeners. After all, it is those listeners that provide good feedback on how the story was, and how they related, if at all, to it. Stories can be told in many different ways. Whether it is a novel, a graphic novel, a comic, literature, music, a movie or even social media, stories can take any form.

Throughout my time at Suffolk Community College, I have done a lot of observations and many hours of student teaching between the ages 4-7 years old. So, walking into an infant classroom for an observation was a first-time thing for me. The infant room was full of a lot of wooden furniture (example: cabinets, changing table, cribs, shelves etc.) and the walls are painted an eggshell white. The instant I walked into the entrance of the room near the door, right hand side there was a kitchen, with a sink, baby formula, utensils, baby bottles and sippy cups.

For most people in Western culture, there are reasons for comparing culture with drama— our social behaviour includes numerous aspects such as scenes, characters, roles, dialogues, conflicts etc. that is also present in theatre (Vosu, 2010: online). There is always something drama-like in human social behaviour and, in turn, theatre resembles our real lives, since they represent it in one way or the other (Turner, 1990: 13). By studying theatre performances, we can then inspect the ways humans and societies have been represented, but also what these people, their knowledge, values and relations to the society have been like. Theatre analogy therefore functions in both ways — by examining theatre-like situations in social life we get to know

Virginia Woolf, one of the most gifted writers of this century had often wondered why men had always had power, influence, wealth, and fame, while women had nothing but children. She reasoned that there would be female Shakespeare in the future provided women found the first two keys to freedom: independent incomes and rooms of their own. (The second key was a metaphor for women having access to their own private space.) When A Room of One's Own was first published it was considered both radical and revolutionary. Most people--including many women--did not talk about or even think about women's liberation and certainly no one was writing about it, let alone as persuasively as Virginia Woolf.
