controversial aspect of the Adam Walsh Act and changes that the Walsh Act brought forth, the constitutional challenges that the Walsh Act faces. You will also be able to identify the rationale behind the Walsh Act. This topic was of most interest to me, being a victim of a sex crime I wanted to research and form an opinion. I want to know if the Walsh Act was truly seeking justice for the victims, or if this was another loop hole in the already complicated Criminal Justice system. Keywords: sex…
Denver tasting Beloved’s blood after Beloved’s death symbolizes the bloodlines that connects Denver with Beloved. However, the feeling is not mutual. Beloved does express love for Denver, but she comes back only for Sethe to seek revenge for “[leaving] me behind” (89). Denver can see the situations that lie in the house of 124 clearly because she can view everything through a clear perspective because she hasn’t been plagued by the sight of slavery. Denver is the first to recognize Beloved as…

Old Major stands for Vladimir Lenin, and the pig named Snowball represents the intellectual revolutionary Leon Trotsky. Napoleon stands for Stalin, while the dogs are his secret police. The horse Boxer stands in for the…
Urban fiction or most known as street lit is by far the best genre around. What street lit is to me is grimy literature that focuses on the street life, sex and drugs.
