Overall, this year’s Native Son Mock Trial went very well, even if there are a few growth areas for the lawyers and witnesses. Most of the lawyers did a very good job presenting their ideas and examining witnesses. Growth areas for them would be to be more prepared when going up questioning the witnesses, speaking louder, and actually asking relevant questions that would support their side. Additionally, I think the judge should know her responsibilities better and know when to say what. In addition, the judge should have been more forceful and assertive, so the trial could go by smoothly.…
While well-known, the story of a man fated to kill his father then marry his mother appears to be hardly relevant to anything other than crass jokes. Despite Homer’s Grecian tragedy being the beginning of the understood structure of tragedies, a repeating circle of events that is not broken over time, Oedipus’ plight is often not thought to be duplicated by modern writers. That is, except for Richard Wright. In his novel Native Son, Wright utilizes plot devices from Oedipus Rex to delve into the continued oppression of blacks in urban America.…

“That is inhumane, gruesome, and most of all against my beliefs.” A person’s cultural views can differ from another’s by a great and can create rifts between people and oneself. A person looking at a “6” may interpret it is a six while a person who is standing on the opposite side may view it is a “9”. The way someone looks at something isn’t the only way to see it. There is no right or wrong way to view something because it all relies on your cultural background and how one was raised to see the world.…
“Life is a drama full of tragedy and comedy,” (Walls,2005, p.129). Throughout Jeannette Walls’s memoir, The Glass Castle, the undeniable truth of the aforementioned statement is made blatantly obvious through the hardships the family faces. There are many people who believe the children should have been removed from their home due to these hardships; however, there would have been no relative, lawful, reason for their removal. The children did live in poor circumstances, but poverty is not reason enough for removal. In fact, the Walls children were able to fully overcome their struggles with poverty, and even thrived on the motivation that their childhood living conditions gave them.…

Cultural Identity is something that makes people who they are; it can deeply affect how you see the world because it shapes how you perceive new things. And as a child, many people do not realize the impact observed actions can have on someone when forming cultural identity. How a person grows up can really change who they are as a person, due to the great influence that parents and caregivers have on the children in their early years. Not only that but, when a child is exposed to a new environment or community they can begin to do things differently than their parents and that can begin to change them.…
