My personal communication style is normally I get very frustrated when I'm trying to prove my point especially if I have actually facts to back me up in my argument. Especially in a personal setting it feels to me sometimes that people tend to talk over me. I'm not much of an person of emotion, my argument are a matter of right and wrong. I have learned that an academic argument is a method for communicating a singular position with evidence, logic, and persuasion. There are essential elements…

that the most important amendments to the citizens of the United States in the Bill of Rights are the first and the last. The first amendment is a necessary right because it protects freedom of speech and the press, religion, and the privilege to petition and assemble. It allows anyone to express themselves freely about their religion, speak openly, and criticize our government. These liberties allow us to speak out against the government. Because of this, the first…

Rethinking Popular Legal Culture, asserts that the foundation of justice and communal identity rests with the American court system. Though all members of the judiciary body remain “unbiased,” this idea suggests an overpowering force behind local petitions which are, thus, used as vehicles to deliver justice and identity. Linda Greenhouse, author of Becoming Justice Blackmun, offers an alternative approach to this question through detailed analysis of the career of Justice Blackmun. With deep…

Harriet Beecher Stowe stepped out of the traditional role of women and ignited a national debate on the injustice of slavery. She grew up hearing sermons convincing the congregation to help the misfortunate and knew that slavery was wrong. But as a woman in the 1800’s voicing an opinion and changing the law was not supported. Her aptitude with a pen, determination, and a deep sense of right over wrong lead her to write about the mistreatment of slaves. Although Harriet Beecher Stowe faced gender…

Gandhi helped to teach us a great deal of things in Hind swaraj or Home Rule, but his explanation in section sixteen is what stood out the most to me. It spoke of Brute force and how it is used as a tactic to achieve specific goals and explain the outcome. This does not sound like a great deal to do, however it brings to question on the idea of authority and how it is connected to the physical aspect of it.
