In Country

to support a country who oppresses African Americans and other minorities. As Americans it is our duty to respect our country and those who fight for it. It is a dishonor for anyone to enjoy the freedom as an American, but not support the country and those who fight for our freedom. As Americans we should definitely stand during the national anthem unlike Colin Kapernick did and continues to do. Colin Kapernick said, “I am not going to stand up and show pride in a flag for a country that…

the majority of business that could be done across borders is still being done within the borders. Often times, developing countries or even undeveloped countries only receive business with wealthy countries if they have something to offer. A region that is a great example of this is the region of Africa. In Africa, the majority of the global business occurs in two countries, Nigeria and South Africa. It occurs in Nigeria because of their oil rich market and in South Africa because it is more…

movies, “A Classroom Dived” and “Why I Love a Country That Once Betrayed Me.” These movies stick out for the reasons that every minorities group has contributed and sacrifice for the United States of America, to become “free.” Yet, they are all being treated as second-class citizens-denied a “personal freedom”, one way or another. In addition, the “cartoon page” Post -racial America? sums it all issues up, I suppose. The movie “Why I Love a Country That Once Betrayed Me” remains me of the…

in a country such as Saudi Arabia an investor should be aware of the strict religious customs there and the effects this may have on the way they can conduct business or the product they sell. A second factor that makes up an economic environment is the political and economic environment facing business, for example a country can have varying degrees of individual freedom in political, economic and cultural spheres. This is something investors should be very aware of as investing in a country…

Revolution lasted from 1820-1870 and established the basis for manufacturing in today’s world. Countries in Asia like China and India seemed to have missed this onslaught of changes which left these countries behind for them to develop in later years. This said, China and India are considered developing countries meaning they’re still experiencing their industrial revolution and are catching up to developed countries. Developing…

day of their life. Whether you realize it or not, the steps to make the clothes you wear, requires multiple steps and multiple countries just to produce one article of clothing. In recent years, the textile industry has had some major changes involving the employment and production of fabric due to globalization and the ability to easily collaborate with other countries. The transition of the production of textiles from local businesses to oversea factories has caused many effects on the world’s…

Someone who was born here versus someone who came here from a different country. Through the eyes of an immigrant being American could mean multitudinous opportunities to get a stable job and provide a safe home for their family. A natural-born American might be more aware of the flaws of the country they live in, rather than see everything it has to offer. Think about what being American means to you. “A Quilt of a Country” and “The Immigrant Contribution” both push this idea far beyond the…

of beauty varies in each country. For example here in the United States a woman with wide hips, small waist, high cheek bones and other features are considered beautiful. In other countries such as China and India bizarre perceptions of beauty. In order to feel beautiful women go to extreme measures to achieve a certain look. Unfortunately some women are forced against their own will to be beautiful in the country that they live in. In Mauritania, a Western African country, women are forced to…

into our country. People come from all over because they believe America is a place for change, but with so many new people coming Americans have been affected. Even though everyone has the vision of America being seen for opportunity and change this is not always the case in today’s time. In the beginning the American dream was exactly what it sounds like, the dream of most Americans. The American Dream gave many Americans…

In this paper, I will compare and contrast the attitudes of American people in response to Robbins’ on approach to political and social behavior of American “lawn people” and Moran’s approach to consumerism. First, I would like to point out that Robbins takes a thought-provoking approach in analyzing how laws can take a deeper meaning in our lives. For example, in chapter 1, Robbins describes the overwhelming feeling of his unkempt lawn that has led him to lay awake at night. To me, it’s amusing…
