There is an emphasis on disproportionate representation of Aboriginals within the Canadian justice system. Neil and Carmichael also bring attention to…

The Viking Age occurred from late 8th century to mid-11th century. Within this time frame Viking populations across the globe experienced a number of significant changes that signalled the transformation of the Viking age.

The main factors behind this transformation are primarily religious in nature, a claim supported by Angus A. Somerville and R. Andrew McDonald, who cite, ‘the…

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.

One issue that still seems to be quite a problem in the United States is racism and discrimination against minorities. Even though the civil rights movement was a while ago, and we as a country have made progress since then, it is still something we see and hear about almost every day.

I think eventually most of all racism will die out, but there will always be…
