This event that occurred in an alley has haunted the narrator and how you can’t just simply bury the past because it always comes back to you. The narrator recalls a phone call from last summer from someone named Rahim Khan, which he says isn’t…

there were three sources for this weeks reading and viewing. All three had different thesis statements that tighter I believe cover a majority of cultural issues that we face today as a society. First we have the video that is titled “Racism a history part 2”, what this video introduces the humble beginnings of the abolitionist movement in and throughout history! Then this week we were also asked to read chapter one of “Landscape and Race in the united States”. The main argument of this chapter…
5. Chapter Two: “The Sieve and the Sand” (Part 2) When Montag arrives home, Mildred’s friends are at their home, watching the screens in the Parlor. He sits in silence, but his intense presence makes the entire room uncomfortable, to the point where they may “hiss a long sputtering his and explode,” at any given moment (92).

Benard Dick, in his book Anatomy…

Instead, if we are able, we shut our eyes and remove ourselves far from human suffering or we revel in it vicariously. We take the pastoral or prurient path, whenever we can. The first is a form of fantasy infantilism, whete we pretend the Problem doesn't exist. No need to take any action other than insulating ourselves from that “non-existent” threat. The other is a bloodlust…
