    In the early 1980’s in a small Podunk town of Ada, Oklahoma, a young woman named Debra Sue Carter, was savagely raped and killed in her own apartment after work at the local cocktail bar. Quickly, the town drunk was arrested in relation to the rape and murder with nothing more than a single “eyewitness” that placed him at the woman’s job that night. Many regulars to the bar said that “they would know if Ron Williamson was at the Coach Light and he wasn’t there.” They, in fact, named another man: Glenn Gore, the prosecution's main witness. Gore was also the man that Debbie’s friend said that she was afraid of and he was supposedly at Debbie’s apartment the night of the murder, according to the friend who received a phone call that night from Debbie. Gore was also seen being pushed away by the victim at the victim’s car the same night as the murder.…

    My first semester here at UIC I was obligated to take English 160. I can honestly say I thought I would be easily passing this course. I was used to the 5 paragraph essay in high school and assumed that things would be the same in college. After writing my first project for English 160 I felt invincible until I received my graded paper. I had no idea what I had done wrong because I had done so well in high school English. Finally I realized that I had to pick one theme for an entire paper and elaborate on it completely. Even though it took some time I felt…

Then in 1884, she was confronted by a railroad conductor, asking her to move to the overly crowded smoking car. She refused and was drug off the train. She hired an attorney and tried to sue the railroad. Her attorney was bought off, and she had to hire a white attorney who eventually was able to get her a $500 settlement.

    In this chapter, Dorothy Lee’s reading gave us a good view of different types of cultures and the personal autonomy of the people .Lee believes that “the principle of personal autonomy is supported by the cultural framework" (lee,5) She explores this by comparing our Western society to several north American aboriginal societies. When we think of our society we are only free to do things to a limit. Whether that limit may be good or bad, otherwise our individual autonomy is restricted in this society. The key problem that Dorothy Lee is addressing in this reading is the conflict between individual autonomy and social structure. Lee presents different material from a number of different societies to show “how the principle of personal autonomy is supported by the cultural framework” (lee, 1). She shows that this conflict has been resolved in the aboriginal society. In this essay I will talk about the respect the Natives have for each other’s individual integrity. Lee says “In every society we find some organized social unit; but not everywhere does the social unit provide freedom to the individual or the opportunity for spontaneous functioning; nor do we find a value for sheer personal being” (Lee, 7). In particular I will show how this situation has been resolved, when she talks about child bearing in the Wintu Indian society.…

    “Now that you have started reading this essay, you and I are now connected by a web of connections.” This is what Susan Griffin, author of “Our Secret”, a chapter taken from Griffin’s insightful book A Chorus of Stones, most likely would have declared. Griffin argues that, “all of us, especially all of us who read her essay - are part of a complex web of connections” (265). But how are people who do not even know each other connected? Griffin implies that people are part of a “larger matrix” and have a “common past” (265). The “common past” between people that Griffin asserts can be proved by examining the unique underlying comparisons and analogies she applies in the chapter. “Our Secret” is a collection of Griffin’s own life story and the life stories of others, including Heinrich Himmler, Heinz, a painter, a friend, Holocaust survivors, a homosexual man, and her sister. She even uses RNA and cells as analogies to indicate how even the materials that compose people have similar functions to people themselves. Although people may question how…
