Brock

In many of our texts related to American Naturalism we have encountered violence for many reasons. People use violence to achieve something they feel when it seems it is the only way possible. The book I would like to call upon for evidence is Them by Joyce Carol Oates. The film I would like to call upon for evidence is The Midnight Cowboy, directed by John Schlesinger.

In today’s society, campus rape has been a big issue and it keeps happening over and over again in the U.S. colleges/universities campuses. For example, look at the Brock Turner case. His potential sentence of 14 years in prison, but he only gotten 6 months in jail, followed by 3 years of formal probation, and to be registered s sex offender for life because the judge chose to give him leniency to Turner for the harsh impact imprisonment that would have on him.

outraged. Even though sexual assault happens every day, people were very unhappy about this certain case. The reason why is very unnerving: Brock Turner only received a six month sentence to prison, but was released three months early. According to a “Huffington Post” article by Tyler Kingkade, “The judge who sentenced former Stanford University swimmer Brock Turner to a lenient six-month jail term for sexually assaulting an unconscious woman believed he was ‘remorseful’, even though Turner…

like this topic is mostly overlooked, either by college administrations or college security. They try to avoid a big scandal because no one wants the word of a sexual assault that happened to get out. In the very recent sexual assault charges against Brock Turner, the assailant was found guilty on the charges of 3 counts felony sexual assault. The former swimmer for Stanford University and his attorney tried to claim the assault was consensual, but was impossible because the victim was…

Indians for their land. Now let 's fast forward into 2016 where white privilege is very much disguised in the shadows of the legal system. Take twenty year old Stanford swimmer Brock Turner for example, whose case got negative media headlines for all the wrong reasons, due to the leniency of the judge. According to Damon Young, “Brock was found on top of an unconscious woman outside a kapa alpha fraternity house”. He was later initially charged with rape and convicted of sexual assault but did…

The Anita Hill vs. Clarence Thomas case has been labeled as one of the most controversial cases in history. Clarence Thomas was a 43 year old judge who had just been nominated to the Supreme Court in 1991. Soon after he was nominated, Anita Hill accused him of sexual assault in the workplace during the time that they worked together at the Equal Employment Opportunities Commission. As controversial as this case may have been it only hindered Clarence Thomas’ way up to the Supreme Court. The case…

Rape is Rape No Matter How Small If someone is a rapist and an athlete, they’re not an athlete that made a minor mistake, they’re a criminal who can dive and swim. Brock Turner raped an unconscious victim while she was intoxicated and very unaware of what was happening, Turner was only charged with six months in jail.
