    Poultry farming has been made an arduous way of making a living because of corporations that have a monopoly over the meat industry. Many poultry farmers like Jerry and Kanita Yandell who have been baited into signing a contract with Tyson Foods inc. under the pretence of having a stable and steady paycheck. The overview of the contract between the corporations and the poultry farmers is quite simple, Tyson foods will supply the chicks and the poultry farmers are given the task to raise the chickens that are later slaughtered for meat. In return, the farmers are paid on a per pound basis.…

    Besides seeing the pictures of Emmett Till’s dead body, I have never seen any other pictures or heard any in depth stories about lynching. It is something that naturally made me feel extremely uneasy and uncomfortable, but I think the part that made me the most upset was the fact that there were so many pictures of these lynchings that occurred. People had gone out to these “events” with their whole families even from neighboring towns and cities and had made sure to document these killings forever as a form of a souvenir, some even going further and bringing a part of the now-dead human with them as well. It personally makes me extremely uncomfortable seeing these pictures and reading their captions with dates supplied and seeing how recent…

    The Murder of Emmett Till Getting away with murder is never the right thing. In the biographical story Getting Away With Murder by Chris Crowe, Emmett Till’s killers did just that: they got away with murder. Not only that, but they also got paid for telling stories about how they killed Emmett. I highly recommend this book to people that are into murder stories. This book is very descriptive.…

    Roe v. Wade was not the first point in history abortion was discussed. Prior to the court case, many states, and eventually the Supreme Court, ruled on the constitutionality of state laws which preluded Roe v. Wade. In 1879, a Connecticut law was enacted stating that any one person who attempted through medical means to prevent conception of a child should “be fined not less than forty dollars or imprisoned no less than sixty days” (“Griswold v. Connecticut…”). This meant that any form of contraceptive (i.e. birth control, condoms, and abortion) was illegal in the eyes of the Connecticut state court. In 1939, the Waterbury Maternal Health Center in Waterbury, Connecticut was raided by police for their practice which helped “married women who could not afford private…

    The Afro American Newspaper framed three ladies standing with nooses around their neck in protest against lynching in Georgia on January 1st, 1946. Lynching refers to death by hanging by the white mob. I chose women in protest as opposed to a violent, voyeuristic lynch mob scene because it demonstrates taking an individual stance against racial segregation and atavism. The women depicted in the picture stand outside a forest. Note the trees are blurred as the camera lens primarily focuses on the three ladies.…

    In the Charles Cullen case, I do feel all hospitals should be liable. It is their duty to screen their medical staff, ensure proper training as well as maintain compliance with state regulatory mandates. In most cases human error and death are part of a hospital environment, but Cullen was under suspicion from his first nursing job. St. Barnabas suspected him, they could have stopped him early in his career taking his nursing license due to his indiscretions at their facility, but the did not. Throughout the book we see Cullen had no problem getting a position once he was let go from a previous.…

    To begin with, the case I decided to write about is the Eric Garner case which I feel strongly about. This incident took place in Staten Island, New York on July 17th 2014.
