I read Michael Vey, The prisoner of cell 25 and I gave the book a ten out of ten. Michael Vey has lots of action and conflict, Those types of book are my favorite that's why I gave it a ten out of ten. In the book, the protagonist owns a large company and for the kid that he does test with he lets them get whatever they want. So I wonder how much money he has into the company because the kid would get diamond jewelry. In the book, scientist conducted an unapproved experiment in a hospital and their test subjects were babies. I wonder why their test subjects were babies, to me that's just cruel.

If I were Michael in the story I don't think I would be able to be as brave as he was. Michael had to do some crazy thing to help his friends and

    Summary Of Michael Vey: The Prisoner

    In my book, Michael Vey: The Prisoner of Cell 25, the theme is teamwork. Throughout the entire book, the characters all help each other to achieve their shared goals. For example, when Michael needed a ride to Pasadena, the school bully who stayed back in school and has a license, got him there. Also, when Michael, Taylor, and Ostin started the Electroclan, they helped each other by researching what happened to them making them electrical. For these reasons, I think the following article, poem, and short video suite my book’s theme.…

    Liew Of Prison 'And Bring Back The Lash' By Peter Moskos

    After reading both of these articles I found "in liew of prison, bring back the lash" by Peter Moskos much easier to read than "bring back the flogging" by Jeff Jacoby. While reading "bring back flogging" to me it was difficult in a way possibly because the different terms and personal opinions he added in his argument. In Jacobys argument he continuously uses the term "cage" in his argument as to convince the reader that prison is almost as equal as a punishment as "flogging" is. Both of these arguments show their own views and some facts in equal ways I just personally found Moskos argument easier to read and understand. His argument caught my attention more than Jacobys.…

    Just Mercy: A Story Of Justice And Redemption By Arthur Retevenson

    There are always two sides to an argument, but different people have different opinions on which side is right and wrong; as a result, we can compare a debate or argument as of a coin, due to the fact that it has two sides. When it comes to the topic of judicial system in America, most of us will readily agree that it needs to be reformed. Where this agreement usually ends, however, is on the question of who will step forward and make changes to the court system. Whereas some are convinced that no one is going to do anything about it, others maintain that the government will be the savior by making the changes. In the introduction of Just Mercy: A Story of Justice And Redemption, by Bryan Stevenson -an American lawyer, social justice activist,…

    Are Prisons Obsolete? By Angela Davis

    Are Prisons Obsolete?, by Angela Davis, explores the history of prisons in the United States of America, as well as their social, political, and cultural facets. Additionally, she makes the argument for the abolition of prisons within America. Throughout the book, Davis forms three main assumptions: racism is real and wrong, prisons are racist institutions, and prisons should be considered obsolete. To start, Davis argues that racism is real and wrong by examining the history of racism in the United States, and the way in which minority children are raised. Secondly, she points out that prisons are racist institutions due to the history of prisons themselves, as well as the way in which prisoners are treated.…

    Summary: The Mass Prison Era

    With recent talks on Capitol Hill of an upcoming criminal justice reform, it is not surprising to see topics on sentencing structure, police ethics and practices, and the future of the criminal justice system in the news headlines. One of the biggest topics is the overwhelming prison population in state and federal prisons. This has been a prominent topic for some time now. While some want to curtail the prison community others seem to think there is not a visible complication. Those who sense the prison population or the amount of people under supervision of the criminal justice system is of no concern, more than likely do not understand the impact the population has on criminal justice professionals or where the funding for these institutions…

    Captivity By Sherman Alexie Analysis

    In his personal essay, “Captivity”, Sherman Alexie develops an intriguing view on the complexities of the relationship between Native Americans and European Americans, criticizing Caucasians for hypocrisy and fight for power between the two. His many examples comparing the relations between Whites and Native Americans in his essay, while formidable to producing his argument, are helped significantly by a metaphor presented through the mentioning of Mary Rowlandson, a historical figure who was held captive by Native Americans. Alexie’s argument as to the counter productivity and fear produced as a result of race is brought to light partially through the historical reference to the character Mary Rowlandson, reversing roles where instead of the White person being captive, the Native American is. The introduction of Mary Rowlandson in the piece isn’t until the third section,…

    Book Review: Inside Life Behind Bars In America

    Yes, the situations as described in the book, Inside Life Behind Bars in America are supportive of Santo’s plea to “humanize prisoners”. For instance, as detailed by Santos on page 15, he recalls his account with an individual by the name of Ronald. In particular, Santos describes Ronald’s perspective on the prison system, and how “Ronald says that he did not proceed into the jail with any notion of changing his behavior for the better … Ronald knew that his initial prison term would enhance his status, that it would show he could take the punishment and survive a stint in even the toughest of situations” (Santos 15). From this, Santos presents how Ronald had made no decision to correct his behavior or to turn away from a life of violence…

    Why Prisons Dont Work By Wilbert Rideau

    Why Prisons Dont Work By Wilbert Rideau

    In “Why Prisons Don’t Work,” Wilbert Rideau claims state prisons will never improve the lives of criminals and lower crime rates in other states. There are four reasons to consider for dramatic shift to make prisons legitimately functional: 1) Resulting with a “silver bullet” instead of turning a criminal’s life around, 2) Keeping a prisoner long enough can make a man embrace inmate life, 3) Not focusing on the main threat of the young potential criminals, 4) Not giving enough opportunity of giving a convict a second chance at rehabilitation. People who come into a prison may never come out of the rest of his unchanged life. Putting a “silver bullet” through criminals does not keep society safe.…
