Everybody is supposed to feel safe around police officers on account of the fact that the most imperative duty of the police is to carry out the law and correct or chastise those who violate it. These officers are granted the right to use fair and justifiable force to apprehend offenders and maintain peace and order within the communities however, this right legally bestowed upon them by the U.S. Justice System gives them a sense of empowerment which presents a forbidding, national issue that…

It doesn’t help to be oversensitive, but sometimes it’s hard to avoid it. “Literary intellectuals love to sneer at polls and surveys,” writes Dominic Sandbrook in his determinedly informative and frequently entertaining attempt to analyse what makes British culture tick, “but historians cannot afford to do so.” The survey being putatively sneered at reveals the immense popularity of The Lord of the Rings; presumably the implications of that popularity, rather than the fact of it, which must…

3 is glorious as well as misnomer - it constitutes half the car, and contains at least one additional rom, which is cordoned off with a thick velvet curtain. The main room is paneled in walnut and outfitted with damask furniture, a dinette, and a Pullman kitchen” (pg 91). Having power in the circus means owning a luxurious room. Power is given by Uncle Al and August to others who will gain the circus attention, such as the performers. Throughout the book, it is clear that the managers and…

Elizabeth talked about traveling to the East side of Washington State, only 8 hours away from home, but that trip is very dear to her. She travelled to Pullman WA for FFA State. "I like doing or being involved in FFA. It's fun. We do a lot of fun fundraisers and we practice for food science and then we get to go to state. States really fun. And then we compete, and I just like it." FFA is something that…

In societies based on voluntary trade, people grow rich by producing goods that customers purchase over the alternatives available. Individuals differ in ambition and ingenuity, but the ability to earn wealth inspires them to create finer products. In a market-oriented economy, the ability to move between classes hinges on the ability to satiate the desires of others; by nature, consumers purchase goods from suppliers who outperform their competitors. Ergo, for Bill Gates or other producers to…

In the second part of “Wonder” we read in Via’s point of view. Via’s point of view tells how, Auggie, got this deformation.

Rutgers University Press, 2014 “We live in a “rape culture” … not because U.S. culture is inherently in the business of normalizing sexual violence against women but because violence is an inherently sexualized phenomenon of which rape is the extreme form” (Mardorossian 8).

Police brutality has had a long lineage in the United States of America. Beginning in 1877 with the Great Railroad Strike, police began targeting poor labor workers as they attempted to make a fair living. The Pullman Strike of 1894, the Lawrence textile strike of 1912, the Ludlow massacre of 1914, police brutally attacked labor workers on strike. Fast-forward to the 1960s where Native Americans, Latino immigrants, LGBT people, and blacks were the new target, low on the totem pole. Police…

Public interactions with the police have been highly publicized throughout the news lately.
