The raid had lead to having James Brown and his man hanged for treason. To Frederick…

Thankfully, these visits were only necessary every year or so. The old king was getting worse every time Barone Victor Wollstonecraft saw him. The Barone wistfully remembered when he would accompany his late father on these visits in his childhood and the king had been such a masterful teller of tales. Young Victor would spend the entire journey back to Castle Godwin replaying in his imagination the stories he had heard while in the capitol. Today his majesty could scarcely utter three…

The culture may have power but it does not have the authority to determine who we are as people. I may be seen differently in the North American culture based on my deep brown skin or the thick course texture of my hair and even the way I view the world but in true reality, this does not take authority over me. The authority comes from the risen King, Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior. He loves every one of us just the way…

John Brown was a man who was never distracted from his mission of abolishing slavery; he believed that a violent rebellion was the only way to put an end to slavery. On May 9th, 1800, Brown was born into a deeply religious family in Torrington, Connecticut. Because Brown’s father was impassionedly opposed to slavery, his family moved to a district in Ohio which would later become known for its anti-slavery views. In the first fifty years of his life he moved around the country and settled in…

Who was John Brown and if he was a man of faith, how could he have been a leader in the taking of innocent lives? This is a question that has baffled the minds of many scholars and historians since that October day in Harpers Ferry in 1859. Was what John Brown organized and executed right or wrong? These are difficult questions to answer about a man who felt so strongly about his convictions about slavery and the God whom he served. John Brown was committed to the abolition of slavery at a young…

In 1985, an innocent man was sent to prison for a sentence of 36 years. This man’s name was Steven Avery. Steven was a resident on Manitowoc County, Wisconsin. A county where the police, the people you shouldn’t be afraid of, didn’t quite accept Avery because of an incident with his cousin, who was also the wife of the deputy, some time back, against Sandy Morris. The incident involved an empty fire arm weapon, which he pointed at Morris, when asked why he did it, his didn’t like the rumors…

voters towards the Labour party. But due to, a showcase of poor leadership the Sun newspaper switched from Labour to Conservatives (Fielding, S. 2015). Specifically, in 2009 the Sun began a ‘full blooded partisanship with the Conservatives’. (Kavanagh, D and Cowley. P, (2010). Thus, one could theorise that a fall in popularity would result in a fall in…

What makes a person an American? For many people America is a symbol of freedom. This freedom that Americans contain really is at the core of what makes them American. “And the American people are the greatest people in the world. What makes America the greatest nation in the world is the heart of the American people: hardworking, innovative, risk-taking, God- loving, family-oriented American people.” As Romney said people are allowed to have their own religion, take risks, and they are really…

History has been shaped by the actions of many great African Americans.

Religion, education, struggle for rights, writing abilities and work ethic are topics which can be compared in the lives of Frederick Douglass and Malcolm X which can be compared in the lives of…
