This assumption was also brought up in a special committee report for brown bears in Alaska, which mentions that while there was an increase in interactions between humans and bears. It also states that there are several causes for this increase such as shrinking habitats and changing food supplies, which means that Alaska’s food sources for its wildlife will…

    The unfamiliarity of the “other” often leads to the creation of an enemy, with the Middle East being no exception. This enemy status has been habitually established through the implementation of stereotypes by the USA towards the Middle East in media and entertainment such as movies, television, and music. This enemy status created through stereotypes has been explored in academia such as Edward Said’s Orientalism, written in 1979. Beginning with Said’s Orientalism and continuing with the…

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.

    Literacy has broader implications of the word than the definition in the dictionary. The reason why I recalled the moment of a middle school class in Korea is also related to impacts of literacy. That is because backgrounds and experiences of a person determine literacy of the person. Since I learned shallow definition of English words in Korea, sometimes I misunderstand lectures.

Women are being arrested for taking the wheel even though it is not against the law for them to drive. Both texts show how bias options are shown and can be…

    1813. Lawrence did not condemn his own marriage. Two of Lawrence’s sons, Jeremiah and Septimus would become Quakers at a later time, Septimus being buried in the Quaker cemetery plot by the old Meeting House and Jeremiah joining when he was around 60 years old.
