Family Matters Oh, how the times have changed. Whether it is socially, politically, or environmentally, the world is evolving. Some of the changes are for the better and some for the worse. One adjustment that has seemed to be put aside in society recently, is how much time families spend together. The main source of familial bonding is normally dinnertime.

Parental Leave Laws are an extremely important but overwhelmingly overlooked necessity in America. Other countries have proven for years that Paid and Protected Parental Leave strengthen the family unit, as well as the economic and corporate structures.

The moment that Hawaii Five-O aired on TV when I was 12, I knew that I would be able to count on watching it with my family every time it aired. We put aside our individual tasks and problems and gathered around the TV every Friday to watch Five-O. The shows characters gave prominent examples of leadership, honor, and morals, and many lessons from the show still stick with me today. Hawaii Five-O taught me a lot of things about family and what’s really important, and it brought me closer to my…

In the second chapter of, “Open Veins of Latin America: Five Centuries of the Pillage of a Continent” by Eduardo Galeano had a lot of information in it. The chapter also had a ton of themes going on, but the three most important themes in my opinion that I thought was represented in the chapter repeatedly was slaves and cheap workers such as peasants. Another theme was the devastations that occurred throughout Latin America. The last theme that I will summarize was the theme of violence that was…

In October of 1916, in small town Ely Minnesota, a local grocery store was built on nothing but the foundation of family. The small company has spread all around the Iron Range, giving that sense of family to all who have visited. The Zupancich’s have carried on their family traditions for over a century, making their family name well known, along with their famous “Zup’s” sausages. Throughout the many years of service, the family traditions have been passed along from generation to generation…

The Iranian Revolution may not seem like the ideal situation for humour to be applied, but humour is seen often in Marjane Satrapi’s graphic novel Persepolis; a book retelling Satrapi’s childhood during the revolution. Although her story is littered with the tragedy and brutality of oppression and war, the horrors she experienced are often combined with funny moments that seem impossible in her situation. The premise of humour may seem out of place in a graphic novel about a terrible time, the…
