and reveals that he is not in fact Arabian, but is instead of European descent (The Sheik). Enemy making is clearly central to the plot, as the Sheik kidnaps a woman that looks American for his own bidding, effectively establishing Arabs as an enemy to Americans, as dangerous people that will steal your women and threaten your way of life. Other imagery in the film further reinforces this, as in one particular scene women are being sold as wives/ slaves to Arabian men (The Sheik). This scene…

Women in general have not been treated the way they are suppose to. They have been facing discrimination throughout the history everywhere. One of the main reasons why women in the middle east are treated poorly is because people do not see their rights as human rights and they separate women’s rights from the other rights. Women face discrimination in the Middle East more than anywhere else. Lack of education and the issues of poverty are some of the main reasons why women are treated that way.…

‘Remember the Titans’ is about racial discrimination in a school environment, it is about a mixed race football team having to learn how to work together as a team and learn respect for each other. While ‘A Saudi Woman Dared to Drive’ by Al-Sharif is about sexual discrimination, the culture of Saudi Arabia is so used to women not driving.

Before entering the course, I believed that democracy in the Middle East was a viable option but that, because of many cultural reasons, was not the best option for that region.

As an individual is hard to help those people which suffer from poverty, violence, and those people that are unemployed. In the United States, we have much more freedom than other countries. Having our voice heard can be helpful in many ways. In order for our voice to be heard, we must have the support of others or at least know someone who is powerful. Even a president cannot make its own decisions. The president decisions are depending on the number of votes. Protesting can solve some of the…
