Plea

feelings for him when she's been in captivity for most of the book? That's beside the point, she had something to say, and the prompt has deemed it relevant enough for me to write about it. Cora bravely thrusts herself to the floor in a desperate plea for mercy that falls on the ears of Tamenund, who surprisingly, doesn't seem to care that much. He does hear what she has to say, which in that time, must have been a surprising and exceptionally just gesture. She complains and appeals to him as…

2. During the past years, human trafficking has been documented and debated on a large scale. Women and children have been among the victims in this era of globalization. The continue treatment of human being as a commodity speaks volumes of the global community’s failure to offer protection and opportunity across gender and age. The rapid proliferation of human trafficking cast a dark shadow over the benefits that globalization has offered to many. Notwithstanding its general economic…

The Plea to Commence War In order to gain freedom from the despotism of the British monarchy, citizens of the United States took it into their hands to persuade the loyalists to take action against injustice. In 1775, Patrick Henry powerfully addressed the idea to commence war upon the British to resolve the issue of oppression at the Virginia Convention. He was able to conjure conflict and fear within the minds of the audience members by appealing to emotion, and making religious or…

civil cases pertaining to the rape of a white woman or child would have end up with a black man or men lynched by the local white men, who are usually KKK members. There is differentially no equality in the criminal justice system. Many black men take plea bargains that would end up placing them in jail for 20 – 30 years. Throughout the…

world around them. The most important thing culture can affect is one's point of view is their point of view of other people's culture. I believe that one's culture can affect their point of view on other cultures. In the story “An Indian Father's Plea” writing by Robert Lake (Medicine Grizzlybear) there are plenty of examples of people's culture affecting their point of view on other people's cultures. The story is about a father, who is Native American, sending a letter to a teacher telling…

The Milgram Experiment - Examining the Role of Authority in the Social Contract Using Foucault as a Basis Authority serves as the adhesive which binds all members of society to their roles within the social contract. Michel Foucault explains how authority in the modern disciplinary society could be better enforced by establishing proper hierarchies and creating confinements and labels for the undesirables in society (Foucault, D&P p. 224 & M&C p. 37-38, 1975 & 1988). In the Milgram experiment,…

The gravamen of Sucklal’s serial filings was that the lenders had no right to foreclose. Unlike Sucklal’s post-sale motions, her pre-sale…

In today 's society should the death penalty still be acceptable? In my honest opinion, I do not think the death penalty should still be legal. Morally and in my faith, I do not see how twelve people on a single jury and the final confirmation of the judge should seal the fate of a person. I see value in all life, so if the person on trial did something so vile, so violent, they should just sit in their cell to think about what they have done. Death is too easy; if the prosecution team in the…
