We Are the World

Additionally, Errol’s responses brought forth a question that resurfaces many aspects of social justice and advocacy work: Power and the illusion of power. Earlier in the semester we visited Paulo Freire and Myles Hortons’ book, We Make the World by Walking, and examined the flaws of charismatic leadership and certain charismatic leaders: Overly charismatic leaders may see themselves as the driving force behind a movement and overlook how the people, in fact, are the ones who carry the momentum…

In a recent blog post, digital marketing journalist and publicist Mitch Joel posited that we live in a “one screen world.” We live in a world where the only screen that matters is the screen that is in front of me. We live in a world where screens are here, there and everywhere. They are in the palms of our hands, on our wrists, on our glasses, on our computers, and push out many forms of information and entertainment to us in a myriad of ways. Consumers don 't think about it anymore. Screens…

feel the pain that surrounds them. So, shouldn’t they be given the chance to govern by themselves, without the distraction from humans? A better question to consider is that are we humans really all that different if we are also considered animals in the scientific world. It doesn’t come to our mind that in the animal world, there are no classes or beings inferior or superior to one another. There may be animals that have more power over others, but really in a logical sense, without all the…

Why We Fight On December 7th of 1941, an attack on Pearl Harbor that was just the beginning of America’s involvement in World War II. The propaganda film, Why We Fight, shows many examples that lead up to this attack. The film explains the rise of Nazis and how wide spread they were becoming, along with the invasion of Manchuria by the Japanese. It also includes other motivations as to why America needed to be included in this war between other countries. The Neutrality Act helped Woodrow…

your potatoes and decide to throw it away because it’s unusable? Here we have an example of potential food waste due to natural products going bad relatively quickly. Food waste is critical. Many third world, and developing countries have a shortage of food. One of the arguments that arose is should we consider using GMO’s to help develop and modify our world hunger? If we consider to use these GMO’s more often than regular, we believe it will silence the argument of feeding the hungry and help…

Environmental Initiative PharmaCARE’s new initiative pledge “We CARE about YOUR world”, is to appear their implementing a social responsibility when they are more concern about their own wellbeing. PharmaCARE’s initiative pledge and their current actions are contradicting. On one hand, they recycle and other green initiatives. However on the other hand, they are anti-environmental since they are against environmental laws and regulations. The environmental laws and regulations are set in…

The First Tuesday- We Talk about the World- In this chapter, Morrie talks to Mitch about creating one’s own culture and love. Which confuses Mitch because how does one create their own culture without being selfish or self centered? This leads Mitch to understand that in order to create his own culture he first needs to make love the center of his being. I think this should have been the last chapter because the topic of creating your own culture and love are all we want in life. This chapter is…

such as the Korean War, World War 1, and World War 2. I was going to write this paper on the Middle Eastern campaigns but the wars listed above were the most changing to America and other countries. I think that there really was not anything political behind these wars except for stopping dictatorships. Does the U.S. really get involved in everything to say no but to call America world police would be wrong? In the following paragraphs I will show how America is not the world police. Keywords:…

All the world, there is a controversial debate about genetically modified organisms. Today’s food production uses GMOs, which are “genetically modified organisms that have genes copied from other organisms” (Jalonick). The way this happens is genes from another organism have been taken and injected into an organism that is being grown. The United States has initiated in moving forward with this idea. With there being an abundant amount of people born globally, scientists’ are trying to find a…
