Brennan makes his opinion on the matter known saying, “The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights solemnly committed the United States to be a country where the dignity and rights of all persons were equal before all authority.” (Brennan). Unlike Brennan, Meese believed in sticking strictly to what the constitution stated for most matters.

“I believe children have the resilience to outlive their sufferings, if given a chance.” - Ishmael Beah After having gone through the most trying and obstacle-filled period of their lives, Ishmael Beah and Mariatu Kamara were given that chance. Kamara and Beah, although both having lived through the same war, had vastly different experiences from each other. Ishmael Beah was a child soldier for the government, a force to be reckoned with unless you were on his side, whereas Mariatu Kamara was a victim of a Rebel attack, a lone girl trying to survive after having her hands cut off and barely escaping certain death .

The Double Standard For Freedom The colonists accepted British authority for many decades, however in the mid to late 1700’s the colonists had a blossoming divergent identity and felt the British were infringing on it. This began with the Molasses Act and continued to build through the Stamp Act, the Tea Act, and then finally the Intolerable Acts. For many decades, the colonists were effectively autonomous, remaining under the British rule but behaving mostly independently. However, after the Seven Years War, Britain began to overreach by imposing revenue taxes on things like tea.

They both grew up fatherless and had a difficult childhood.
There are many different opinions and texts about the man J. Bruce Ismay. Two texts that present these differences and similarities are, "Bruce Ismay: Coward, Villain, or A Man Who was Judged Unfairly?", and, "Family of Titanic's owner, J Bruce Ismay, Make Plea". While some texts are biased, like, "Family of Titanic's owner, J Bruce Ismay, Make Plea", which leans towards Ismay trying to save his life, or the film "Titanic", which favors Ismay as a coward and stealing a spot on a lifeboat, some are neutral like "Bruce Ismay: Coward, Villain, or A Man Who was Judged Unfairly?", which debate all sides of the story evenly. Since these two passages present different theories, it is clear why the two texts compel differences in the two texts. An example of a difference, or even a disagreement is that in the article, "Bruce Ismay: Coward, Villain, or A Man Who was Judged Unfairly?"

Now the question I’m gonna answer is who is better between Jordan and Kareem. Both players are well known players on and off the court but when it comes down to the best of the best MJ wins.

Two of the greatest players to ever step on a basketball court, Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan. When thinking of greatness in the realm of basketball, these two definitely come to mind. They revolutionized the game and brought a standard to be met- Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan. These two players were very similar in many ways. The moves they made were the exact same from the fade away jump shot, to the way they dunked the ball.
Current Racism in America The Civil Rights movement brought segregation to a general close but many people have the illusion that it ended all racism when in actuality, racism is still very much a problem in this country even though it is kept under wraps and disguised. It only keeps progress from occurring and limits the social progression of a society that is expected to be great. Denial of the issue doesn’t mean it does not exist. While men and women of all colors can now drink from the same fountain, they are not safe from institution discrimination or even dirty looks from their peers.
Fear is the core cause of the dramatic shift of lifestyle for both Okonkwo and Nwoye. Through the management of reputation and the avoidance of their father’s likeness, Okonkwo and Nwoye built new lives for themselves. Okonkwo sought power and authority to prove his masculinity and make up for Unoka’s reputation as a weak man. He did this to the point where manliness became his character. Fearlessness and violence were masculine qualities that in Igbo culture signifies strength and influence.
