Mahurin, by providing the space for the seven black women to express their pain and interact with one another without the imposition of men or whites, “Shange’s all-female, all-black production defiantly presents itself as a refuge for the bodies that occupy its stage” (332). This refuge is key in working toward self-ownership. In her opening monologue, the lady in brown introduces the idea of “the black girl”, first saying, “she’s been dead so long” and then later in repetition, “let her be…

"dimpled spider, fat and white, on a white heal-all holding up a moth." The moth is holding onto this white flower called the heal-all trying to escape the spider but death is surely to come. The white heal all flower is regarded as a safe haven or refuge with the power to heal. How ironic to die on a flower with medicinal capabilities. Frost uses these three characters as a metaphor of the beautiful and sometimes cruel world that we all live in. The color white is often used to represent…

of immigrants and to stop separating families. Now in January 2017 President elect Donald Trump signs to build The Wall to close completely the border of Mexico and the U.S and an executive order suspending entry from Muslim countries as well as refuges. An illegal immigrant is someone who crosses the national borders in a way that is violating all the immigration laws to the country he/she is trying to go to.

7. What have you done to make your school or your community a better place? After volunteering in the homeless shelter’s kitchen, I wanted a more personable and interactive experience. I did not feel I was making a difference and wanted to do more. I decided to pass out pizza slices around Oakland. Most individuals ate one immediately, and saved another slice. I fed the homeless two meals when it was rare for them to have one. I saw how much they respected and treasured the simplest things in…

While all these contribute to an individual’s traits, only hardships draw forth talents that would otherwise go unexplored. People’s characters-what Horace referred to as “talents”- encompasses their morals, qualities, and strengths. Adversity challenges people to overcome obstacles, resulting in a stronger character.

This case study clearly shows that world hunger requires more of practical solutions rather than philosophical principles that are so ideal that they can never be applied to such a serious case as refugees’ food problem. The principle (a utilitarian principle) that shapes the essence of Peter Singer’s argument is about the obligation that ALL people have to sacrifice whatever is insignificant compared to the issue in order to address the issue. This principle is not in the favor donors argument…
