    Thomas’s decrepit screen sat on the round table the size of a cartwheel, which made out a slab of unevenly cut corners. The television was like an unwelcome mirror. It is that dark grey in front with false wooden panelling around the sides and the rear projecting outward toward the curb. The cord dangles into the gutter like some discarded lies.

After many years, we have come to understand and accept the different religions and races around the world. The Education of Little Tree, by Forrest Caster, is a great movie example on how the white Christians discriminated Native Americans just because they sought life with a different point.

A study where 1,020 adults between ages forty and fifty-four were tested revealed that with favoritism, relationships between siblings worsened.…
