    A myriad of topics were discussed in the Frontline documentary, The Fish on my Plate, as journalist Paul Greenberg began a challenge of eating fish every day for an entire year. Greenberg defined this challenge as a way to better understand how fish are beneficial to diets as well as the environment. As this challenge progressed, Greenberg explored the global consumption of fish, overfishing, aquaculture, and the health benefits found in the consumption of fish. I had a few preconceived notions about the topic before viewing the documentary. Judging from the title, I was able to detect that the film was going to discuss the topic of fish, where it came from, the issue of overfishing, and the chemicals found in the protein due to increasing…

    Thesis: While “Fish Cheeks” and The Reluctant Fundamentalist both demonstrate the desire to belong, it is apparent by considering the texts together that one will not find happiness by depreciating their own culture. Tan, to begin with, effectively uses narration to demonstrate the shame Amy has of her heritage and her desire to fit in with American culture. For instance, Tan displays Amy’s insecurity of her Chinese heritage when she states, “[what] would he think of our noisy Chinese relatives who lacked proper American manners?” (par. 2).…

    This idea is supported by the frequented use of self-address implemented in the second half. The speaker becomes more involved. “I thought,” “I looked,” “I admired,” all produce a more active role on the part of the speaker. The turning point in the poem that triggers this alteration seems to be when the reader realizes that the fish is in fact still alive. “While his gills were breathing” (line 22) is the first action given to the fish and the first time he is addressed as a living thing.…
