Once the cross examination was done, the judge wanted a 15 minute recess. During the 15 minutes our class had an opportunity to talk to the judge, and ask him questions. The judge was a friendly, down to earth person, who like to joke around with everybody in the court. I never actually saw him put down anybody. The judge told us that he can not release too much information, because it was an ongoing trial. He also told us that there were over 6000 criminal cases, and most of them are not guilty…
“A continual retreat from the discomfort of authentic racial engagement results in a perpetual cycle that works to hold racism in place” (DiAngelo, 66). During the course of the semester our class has dealt with tough but necessary histories and concepts involving race and racism in the U.S. We have continually attempted to engage with, rather than retreat from, the difficult topic of race and national identity. The guest speakers featured in the later half of the class were a beneficial…

The Queensland city of Bundaberg is crammed with traffic, with franchised fast food outlets, and with shopping centres tucked into air-conditioned cocoons that isolate them from the outside world. At an initial glance it appears to be merely a clone of many other Australian cities, but if you take the time to look beyond the veneer of concrete and glass, you’ll find that there’s more to this bustling metropolis than initially meets the eye. It’s a city shaped by people with grand visions of the…

Between 1553-1558, Mary I experienced limited pretender threats, the only one arising from her decision to marry the Spanish prince, Philip II. The prospect of a marriage alliance with Spain was unpopular with the English people who believed England would be involved in wars without the support of the nation. His strong Catholic faith combined with that of Mary’s also stirred up resentment and fear among the Protestant population in England and as a result, a Protestant courtier, Thomas Wyatt,…
suggests that if opposition was shown to the state, then the ‘fundamental freedoms’ Mussolini was previously calling for would be terminated. This was the case for the majority of political opponents who opposed the state.
