    Police accountability has been in question for many years regarding to treating the public fairly regardless who they are or where they come from. In recent encounters with the public, the police were not accountable for their actions.

    Within this journal, I will be evaluating the themes in To Kill A Mockingbird. To begin, one of the themes displayed in the novel is the coexistence of the innocent and evil. One way the book conveys this is when the evil jury kills an innocent black man, Tom. I say this figuratively because the prison camp actually killed him, but the jury got him there. The jury knew Tom was innocent but back then, blacks were always guilty no matter the situaton.…

    Tom Buchanan is labelled as a hulking, hyper-masculine, and aggressive. The way Nick describes him, he seems to be “one of those men who reach such an acute limited excellence at twenty-one that everything afterwards savours of anti-climax” (Fitzgerald 10). Tom is born into old money, and because of that, he is able to have many opportunities in life that benefited him such as his ability to go to Yale and receive such a high education. Also due to the fact that Tom had virtually no financial worries, he is able to live more of a carefree lifestyle that eventually led to his somewhat uncaring personality. While living nearly his entire life surrounded by those of similar upbringing, Tom has learned to be racist and proves it by even telling…

    The Heartbreak of Aaron Burr, by H. W. Brands, shows the limited role of women in society during Aaron Burr’s life and the growing role of parties in American politics through how they affect and shape Burr’s family and himself in his own political career. It also shows a view of Aaron Burr, contrary to the common, as a man with few bad intentions, though plenty of misjudgement. Aaron Burr took a view of women particularly radical for the time period, that they had the potential to be entirely equal to men. Understandably, this opinion is extremely further behind the view of women in modern America.…

    In reading In the Penal Colony, the traveller portrays himself as a passerby to an execution. Anxieties and fears spark at the end of the story where he finds the grave of the old commandant, who believed in exerting full attention in executions. After reading the inscription, the traveller “rose and saw the men standing round him, smiling as if they had been reading the inscription with him, and finding it ludicrous were challenging him to join them in their view” (99). This shows how the people at the teahouse were secretly hinting at the traveller to embody the executional ideology of the old commandant. The traveller thought that there “was no doubt about the injustice of the procedure and the inhumanity of the execution” (85), so he did…

    Straying from the straightforward criminologist story to instead feature realities that had been left buried, the element of truth shines. Not only are Roger and Bernard aficionados of historical truth, the third—and perhaps most notable point of view—inspector Cadin, surpasses his role as policeman to also transition to a seeker of uncovering the truth of the past that had been concealed. The further Cadin travels into this mystery, the more he brings the past to present. In following with the expectations of a detective novel, there are times when Cadin receives bogus leads (p. 73), fails to follow procedure (p. 113), or flat out abandons the case at hand in pursuit of the bizarre heist at the height on the mystery. Throughout the story, we are rarely given the chance to breathe.…

Hawthorne facilitates such through the use of symbolism, in which an optimistic tone presents itself. Additionally, throughout the novel, he incorporates imagery in which a somber tone prevails. Hawthorne gives readers one more treat by using figurative language through an ever growing intruding tone.…

    How does Hawthorne use Dimmesdale's character to help emphasize the hypocrisy of the puritan society? Puritan society of the 1800s saw the world in black and white, good or bad, right or wrong. In his novel, The Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne uses Dimmesdale’s character, who is a minister in a puritan society, to highlight how this simplistic view of the world is full of hypocrisy. In a society that does not see people for the multiple dimensions they have, individuals are easily painted in a single dimension and expected to conform to society’s expectations or face the consequences of not complying.…
