Everyday life in Anglo Saxon England was hard and rough even for the rich. Society was divided into three classes. At the top were the thanes, the Anglo Saxon upper class. They enjoyed hunting and feasting and they were expected to give their followers gifts like weapons. Below them were the churls. Some churls were reasonably well off. Others were very poor. However at least they were free. Below them were a class of slaves called thralls. Their lives were very hard.Some churls owned their own…

The setting I observed was Walmart. I decided to go here because there are usually a large amount of people and a lot of different backgrounds with different personalities. The social setting of Walmart would be the lower and middle class income families. The expectations of this environment would be to be completely clothed with shoes. Most people would expect for others to just look presentable because there are young children and elderly old-fashioned folks. They would not expect people to…

I remember the day like it was yesterday even though it 's been years ago after taking tests and physicals for over a year, staring at Asvab books and laptops that were not mine determining what my life was going to turn into. I then got the best/worst news of my life. I didn 't get accepted into the military, even though it was a huge relief to me I could tell my father was disappointed. Sitting on the couch, tossing around my white Iphone. I hear my phone ring I look down and the police are…

As of the first of January 2016, all schools in Canada will have mandatory school uniforms. How do you think the people of Canada would react if that were true? Many people in the country would be outraged and plan protests. They would argue that the government is taking away their right to express themselves, and they would claim the government is being sexist. Conversely, others would contend that the new rule would save them a tremendous amount of money in the long run, prepare students for…

Insecurity Growing up on a farm with two older brothers, I was a bit of a tomboy. From birth until age seven, my favorite toys were Tonka trucks and wooden guns. I wrestled in the mud, ate like a teenage boy, and at the age of five took scissors to my hair, chopping it into a pixie cut, so I could “be like my older brothers”. Innocently, I wore my barn clothes to school and my kindergarten picture displays my hair in a rats nest, with a large crooked smile, and bright eyes. However, that…

school dress codes force women to cover their skin so that boys don’t get distracted. That is clearly bull crap. Women shouldn’t be forced to change what they wear because boys get distracted. Honestly, are boys distracted when they see a girl wearing leggings? Probably not. While I can see some reasonable limitations; you probably shouldn’t wear a bikini to school, most limitations placed on women by dress codes aren’t reasonable. Let’s start with the three fingers on the shoulder rule. What is…

I’m Lauren. I’m a 16 year old girl who lives in a small town called Miniville. My family and I are going to be moving to New York city in two days. I’m not sure if I’m ready for it. I’m going to miss this place with my friends that I’ve got to know so well throughout my life. The reason we are moving is because my dad got a promotion for a new job there. I’ve heard some things about New York. I’ve heard about how big the city is, the people, and the food. The one thing I haven’t heard about is…

At the beginning of this paper and before we go into deep details, I will go into some of the headnotes that give the reader sort of good view of the Dakota tribe. Essentially, the word Dakota means ally in their language, which is the Dakota Sioux language. The Dakota people are a Native American tribe located in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and South Dakota and North Dakota. The Dakota people are First Nations band government in North America and the largest division of the Siouan family. The Dakota…

receive foreign goods from Europe, and anything available due to the expansion of the United States (13-14). When it came to dress, the Havasupai made most of their clothing from skins, which was usually made by men. Men wore shirts, breechcloths, leggings, moccasins, and a headband (sacred oral tradition of the hv 13). The women wore buckskin dresses with short aprons, and moccasins. Both the Havasupai and the Southern Valley Yokuts depended on rabbit-skin blankets to keep warm during the…
