Since its establishment, Disney was known to promote racism through racial messages embedded within their films for several years. Though many people assert that Disney followed the signs of the time, it was against the moral law to be insensitive to other cultures while promoting the interest of another race which was perceived as superior. Dumbo, for example, was a film laced with racists messages. Disney has embraced the word, Crow, to stereotype African Americans as cigar smokers, lazy as well as associated with criminal activities.

Foucault talks about the devastation of the plague and how it nearly decimated the whole of Europe. The plague left scores of people dead and thousands more dying. The whole of Europe was infected, and the air smelled of decaying bodies, and filled with airborne diseases.

Do non-human animals have minds? This paper explores the possibility of the validity of the philosophical viewpoint that suggests that humans are not the only animals on our planet that have minds; that other animals are capable of conscious thought.

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a method of medical imaging that works by detecting gamma rays produced by the interaction of electrons with positrons after a tracer radionuclide is injected into the body.

Common uses of PET scans are cardiac studies that measure the oxygenation of the tissues of the heart and the function of the heart muscle, to detect skeletal trauma and bone cancers, kidney imaging to study the renal function ...
