In this article, there was indeed an online email from the WikiLeaks website that claimed the 45th Democrat presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton insulted the outgoing First Lady of the United of America Michelle Obama. However, these false stories were proven to be inaccurate. The news would have hit the airwaves had it been true. But there was only one source of the news which is the WikiLeaks (LaCapria). The email suggested that the FLOTUS needed not be at the Democrats' event any further because it was the electorates who had the power to elect their new president. Hilary Clinton ...

Beyonce Giselle Knowles was born in Houston, Texas on September 4, 1981. Performance was important to her and she began performing in front of audiences at a very young age. Her parents supported her early entrance into the world of the performing arts, and her mother became her manager and stylist.

Beyonce had a large network of support that she could draw from when conflict arose and her times became more difficult than expected. When she was 16, Beyonce ...

In the aftermath of the Civil War, the black slaves were given their rights and much of the same rights as those given to the “white” population. Many believed that the former slaves would soon be graduating to the level of their former slaves. However, this was not the case; in fact, over the next two decades, the former slaves would be stripped of everything these had gained in the wake of the war. In fact, the declination of the rights of the black people was not only supported, these were institutionalized by the adoption of the “ ...

The speech we are going to consider was Michelle Obama’s appeal to the crowd on the first night of the 2016 Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia (Obama).

Michelle Obama has ...

Hi Nancy, the project that you propose develops a broader perspective of environmental conservation and sustainability as a collective social action. Environmental issues and preservation require public awareness and communal participation. The social network theory and social capital show that the community is a set of individuals with ties and relations that can be utilized to accomplish a common objective (Aldrich and Michelle, 6). The example can be seen from your project proposal by communicating with the companies that make the plastic cups, the breweries industries, environmental organizations, media houses, and city council to work together and realize a ...

Upon watching the video “Side-by-side of Melania Trump, Michelle Obama speeches“, it is inevitable to come to the conclusion that Melania plagiarized Michelle Obama’s speech. This video highlights the fact that Melania used the same words in the attempt to express the same ideas which Michelle expressed during the Democratic National Convention 8 years ago. There is no doubt about the fact that these ideas might be regarded as common ground for expressing the values of the humanity as a whole, but Melania Trump’s speech consisted of the words and phrases which were an important part of ...

Analysis of issues about “Family” from four poems

Michelle Moran’s poem titled A tribute to family best defines family. It states that family is God’s creation. “But God created families. As only our Lord can” (Moran). Family is also the basis of love, respect, honor and obedience. Family is made up of different parties such as father, mother and siblings each of whom has a beautiful and God-ordained task to fulfil. Family as such comes forth as what is commonly known as nuclear family according to Moran. The poet is honest to appreciate God for creating families from simple union of two people in marriage. “ ...

In the Aftermath of the September 11 Attacks

The September 11 terrorist attacks of 2001 on the New York Twin Towers of the World Trade Center constituted a traumatic event for Americans of all social classes and ethnic backgrounds. The memories of such violent attacks have been kept alive by the numerous terrorist attacks perpetrated abroad in places like Madrid, Paris and Brussels and in Americans cities such as San Bernardino, California. Unfortunately, all of these attacks have been perpetrated by Muslim extremists. Besides a sense of fear and vulnerability the September 11 attacks aroused a sense of patriotism and a reconsideration of the meaning of being ...

There is a growing concern over the use of animal testing the medical research field. Different views have been fronted by proponents and opponents of the practice on how ethical the practice is. It is true that animals have contributed to some successful medical research in the world; however, the number of animals used in wasteful and non-beneficial research works raises concern. According to Dolgin 1348, it is, therefore, essential to consider the benefits and demerits of using animals in research before the experiments are done to avoid tests that are wasteful. The proponents of animal testing support their ...

A flag is a special representation and a Brandmark of a country. It plays an imperative function of uniting a nation. It is an important and emotionally connecting symbol that represents the sovereignty state of a nation to the world and to its bearers. The Brandmark of a country’s flag should be simple and instantaneously recognized and distinctive from other flags that represent other nations (Dittmar, G. 2016). The idea of New Zealand flying a flag that bears the Union Flag as a component of its outline is a matter of concern particularly because the nation’s interests ...

Brian DePalma’s 1983 film Scarface is one of the most well-known drug and crime films in the history of popular culture. Everyone knows Tony Montana’s famous line, “say hello to my little friend” (DePalma, Scarface), regardless of whether they have even seen the film or not. However, what many people do not realize about the film are the many racial undertones and stereotypes that occur within the layers of context. The film is based around the conflict between Cubans and Americans, beginning with the importation of Cuban refugees to the United States to the escalation of the ...

The novel The New Jim Crow by Michelle Alexander and Michelle McCool is another outstanding addition to the already rich literature on racism, specifically that which targets African Americans. From the years of slavery until today, it is safe to say that although there are observable changes regarding the issue, they were only minimal. Proof to this is the number of cases that have been committed against African Americans, with 1,134 deaths involving police officers in 2015. Despite America’s claims that racism doesn’t exist anymore, with the country’s president a black American himself, and Oprah ...

Response to Paul Charvet:

I really like both of your project ideas. It’s funny – when I see a movie after I read the novel, I usually note that the movie version misses a lot of the nuances of the book. But when I see the movie first, I often find the book to be a little bit drab. Maybe it’s because whatever I see first makes the dominant impression in my mind. A movie is going to be more limited than a book because it makes the visual choices that a book leaves up to the reader.

Abstract

Rising rates of recidivism in the United States have developed concerns pertaining to the effectiveness of prisons as correctional facilities. In this study, the focus is to assess the suitability of faith-based correctional methods in promoting inmates reentry into the society. Some discussed methods include Inner change programs, prison chaplaincy, and meditational strategies. Several studies have indicated significant declines in recidivism rates among inmates who participated in these initiates. For example, Duwe & Johnson (2013) found that inmates who engaged in Inner change programs in Minnesota were less likely to be arrested by at least 8% compared to their counterparts ...

The programs have been designed with the goal of helping the young children to enhance their academic, social, and language skills through effective early care and education. Besides, the programs also constitute an avenue where young children with problems associated with development can be ...

Stop-and-Frisk policy is not an effective model of urban policing especially the way it is being implemented in New York City. Reports show that only 6% of those frisked lead to an arrest and 1.2% turn up a weapon. The effectiveness of the policy in identifying criminal elements is questionable given that most of the people stopped to be frisked are innocent citizens. The video on NYPD's Stop-and-Frisk clearly shows that this strategy is nothing more than racial profiling based on an unproven premise that most victims of crime report that their attackers were men of color (NYPD's Stop-and-Frisk: ...

The Tension between the Individual and the Other:

New Technological Possibilities People have always found a great disconnect in the heart of the human experience. This may be conceptualized in many different ways, and has had various solutions throughout the centuries. Human nature leads people to have the need to find a place in the universe, and relating to others has always been an interesting and tempting way to solve this problem. Nevertheless, this is also problematic, as the relationships between people are not always pleasant. In fact, one could characterize them as intrinsically flawed because people are ...

Kaelyn demonstrates a clear view of what chapter 12 and 13 convey to the readers. Ravitch clarifies that the necessity for merit pay implies monetary incentives for teachers. I would say that it contradicts the fact that most teachers are passionate enough in doing their job to educate the students, they do not need monetary incentives. I commend the explanation of Kaelyn because she explains this point clearly. It is true that the criticism undermines the confidence of the teachers and the competition merit pay is harmful to the teacher collaboration. In addition, the system creates weak teamwork ...

Touching upon the problem of improvement in race relations in the United States, we should say that it’s a rather controversial topic. Denying African Americans citizenship was deemed essential to the formation of the original union. Hundreds of years later, America is still not an egalitarian democracy. An extraordinary percentage of black men in the United States are legally barred from voting today, just as they have been throughout most of American history. They are also subject to legalized discrimination in employment, housing, education, public benefits, and jury service, just as their parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents once were. ...
