The Audacity of Hope

would he do this to me? I took the wooden spear and forcefully jerked it out of what was left of my eye. How dare they try this, a human being, shouldn't they know that they are less than me? After they have done me so wrong, my neighbors have the audacity to yell at me and whine and asked if I have been tricked by man and that I am being loud in the starry night. “Nohbdys tricked me!” I cry at the top of my lungs. Not understanding what has just happened, they reply and say that if nobody’s…

Rebellion in The Handmaids Tale In the past, women have been persecuted to a point where they were treated in a completely different way. They were in a world that seemed to be a dark place with no hope, dreams, or sense of relief. Now, women have been given their natural rights, and they are now able to do everything males can do. Whereas, In the new society of Gilead, it is known that freedom is taken away from women. The Republic of Gilead is an autocratic society, especially for women.…

When I started researching this topic, I believed that I would only be able to find a few old topics on animal abuse, but as I researched and researched, the stories continuously got grimmer. One particular story that wasn’t as grim but still got to me was one of a former Boulder City Animal Control supervisor named Mary Jo Frazier. So I tried my best to get as many images that weren’t to gruesome and use it on our groups collage in order to reflect Mary Jo Frazier’s case. So what was Mary Jo…

Daisy again for the first time in 5 years, he wore a white suit as if to show that he was good and pure. On the walls would be a gray wallpaper. Gray is the color for dreariness. It symbolizes the lack of life and/or spirit. It is the place of no hope, no future. In the book this place is called the valley of ashes where everything is covered in gray dust-even the people. This would not be a place where you would want to…

Fraternity and Audacity : It's rightly said 'Where there's will there's a Way' . 'Journey by Night' by Norah Burke is an illuminating tale of the triumph of human courage. The desire to succeed is echoed by the protagonist Sher Singh. The author also highlights the trials and tribulations faced by hill women. Sher Singh could see 'death in his brother Kunwar's eyes' who was suffering from an acute stomach ache. His mother was rather stoic therefore she neither weeped nor smiled as she'd lived…

Aryia Dattamajumdar Per ¾ #6 Mind Journey Out in the wilderness of the jungle, the feel of water droplets dripping down from trees towering above, and the slippery ground full of mud. With no one but a speeding cheetah, running at the pace of a bullet. His name was Choochoo the Cheetah. Choochoo was an affable cheetah who could help anyone with sensor powers. He could find almost anything from hidden creatures to secret paths. After a long, exhausting journey through the…

could that experience be? In simple terms, it was the experience of coming up with a “theory” of nature. Are you kidding me? A high school senior, with almost no mathematical background compared to the theoretical physicists he idolizes, has the audacity to tackle the question of the nature of reality? Clearly, such a reaction would only be natural and is something that is generally acceptable. However, one cannot go anywhere with that attitude. Even without the opportunity to conduct any…

against people regardless of their abilities or achievements. For instance, racism is rampant in American communities as shown by the many famous people who have faced racial discrimination at some point in their lives. In his biography, The Audacity of Hope, President Barack Obama narrates how he would be followed by security guards while he shopped in department stores. He explains how African-Americans were commonly associated with criminal activities and regularly faced police brutality.…

for a few sports. Things did not go well. In soccer, I was the goalkeeper, but I could only stop the ball if it hit me. I was better at baseball, except I could never actually catch the ball. And my basketball tryout is honestly a memory I one day hope to forget. Thankfully, at the beginning of my junior year, I met Mr. Ordorica. In his World History class, I was always the one who had something to say regardless of the subject, or “Ms. Know it all” as they would call me. After the first few…

Thank you for your attention in this matter. Ladies and gentlemen, there is a difference between “self defense” and “retaliation”.There is also a difference between what constitutes reasonable doubt, and the amount of excuses that justify the defendant. Ladies of the jury, Zimmerman provoked the fight that night Treyvon Martin was killed. The law does not allow a man to pick a fight with a minor, to then create the need to defend himself. There is an old cliché “actions speak louder than…
