Frantz Fanon sought to understand colonization more through minds rather than within the physical world. Living in France, he saw how people (men especially) from Africa acted once they arrived in what he calls the “host country” as compared to how they would act in their homeland. In order to advance their status and to be accepted, black people felt they needed to adopt the cultural standards of the host country. In order to do this, African men would try to emulate what they saw in white…

This semester, I went to Black Lives Matter by Patrisse Cullors, during MLK week. I wasn’t sure what to expect from this presentation. Racism is a hot topic and can be discussed in many different constructs. There were few white people there, and a majority of the people there where African American. I felt that the target audience that Cullors needed to impact was sadly not there. Being that most of the audience was black, they are thoroughly aware of the struggles that comes with having a…

The idea of colonialism is to take resources from one country to use for the benefit of the colonizing country. There are several viewpoints about colonization and their impacts. Many believe there are numerous advantages of colonization within a country and several are against the infrastructures and hidden political agendas it brings about within the developed country. It is quite evident that Africa was subject to Colonialism by the Europeans. Europeans extended their nation 's sovereignty…

United Kingdom has throughout its tenure in the European Economic Community and European Union maintained certain level of autonomy from Continental Europe.

Nonetheless, the most notable British exemption from the rest of European Union is its absence from the Eurozone. Of the EU nation’s currently not in the Eurozone only Denmark and the United Kingdom…

resentful that they are expected to support poor-er and less hard working countries, such as Greece or Poland. With the introduction of the Euro, poor countries also significantly decrease the value of the European dollar, to the extent that the United Kingdom is looking into leaving the European Union, which could result in the gradual dissolving of the EU, especially considering that the UK is one of the more financially stable members of the EU.

No matter a person’s stance on different races, no one today can deny the existence of racism in our society. Racism has always been a touchy subject, one that puts people on the defensive, which is why most people refuse to even have a conversation about it. However, unless people start talking about racial disparities and inequalities, then no solution or peace will ever be reached. Increasingly, the news is reporting stories of white on black violence and other inhumane acts committed to…

Should the Police be Armed? In a world full of violence and armed criminals, instinctively it seems right that the ultimate means of law and order in a country - the police force - is armed. The logic appears to work: if the police are armed, criminals - afraid of being shot - are far less likely to commit crimes. Indeed, in countries in which the police aren 't armed, gun crime has doubled over the last decade as has the number of people killed and injured by guns. Add to this the increased…

In the past, there was a lot of injustice, and there are a lot of books that showed it. A specific book I’m writing about today is, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. In this novel, Justice is influenced by age and race, and is distributed unequally in a small town called Maycomb County, specifically when; Tom Robinson, The Ewells, Atticus and his two children, Jem and Scout are affected. Firstly, the Ewells are allowed to do whatever they want, because they are lazy, and white. Initially,…

The Sermon on the Mount is from Matthew chapters five thru seven. It describes how we should live our life in faith.

As well as, the four main purposes the Sermon on the Mount as portrayed in the Gospel of Matthew. It was meant to; expose the people to their sin, guide the followers to Jesus,…
