In Singer’s essay, “The Singer Solution to World Poverty,” the author begins by presenting the reader with the heartfelt scenario of the cost of a child vs. the cost of a new TV. Singer discusses how child trafficking with the intent of organ harvesting is the equivalent of purchasing a brand-new TV because in both cases one can improve conditions for children around the world, either by saving their life or by donating money to help them. Next, Singer goes into the narrative of a man named Bob. Bob has his entire life savings put into a precious Bugatti. However, Bob must make the choice to save his car or to flip the lever and save a child stuck on the railroad tracks.
Peter Singer argues that prosperous people should donate their excess money to the overseas aid groups. When saying this, he believes Americans should stop spending their money on luxuries such as a TV, a computer, a car, and videogames. Instead of spending money on items such as that, he thought we should start sending money to those who are starving in other countries and need our help. There are pros and cons to Singer’s argument and both can be greatly supported.

Lost honor of Katherina Blum, in my opinion is trying to show, that how she was actually a good person, how she was just trying to help, and wasn’t really involved in anything bad or wrong, but just because of the media, people started to think that she was a bad person, a prostitute, a person that would do anything just for her pleasure. And even though, she tried to clear that, and prove that she’s not such a person, her honor was gone and lost. Because at the end, she was still a bad person in people’s opinion. It tried to show that when someone’s honor, or dignity is gone, it’s not easy to bring it back, no matter how hard you try.

"Reconciliation will not work if it puts a higher value on symbolic gestures rather than the practical needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in areas like health, housing, education and employment." Warren Mundine AO Reconciliation is the action of making one view or belief compatible with another according to the Oxford dictionary of English. The term reconciliation was used as a symbolic gesture in an address made on February 13th 2008 by the former Prime Minister of Australia, Kevin Rudd. Kevin Rudd was the first political figure to speak out and seek reconciliation for the Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders after being elected as prime minster in 2007. He spoke out after many generations of mistreated Indigenous Australians that had their rights and equality continuously ignored, but after all that has happened, including the effect of broken families, which still in 2018 have the aftermath of "The stolen generation", there was only one public apology and no compensation for the damages caused to the native people of this country.
Good evening. Citizens of this breathtaking country and beyond. During the past 57 days, the Germans have had the audacity to turn 60% of our city: London, England to ruins. With this we find deep anger and astonishment that a leader would be willing to kill innocent civilians in attempt to gain power. During this time we will stand against their fascist ideas and not react to their terrorism.
