Bell Hook And Cornel West Summary
A second aspect of this video that was enlightening is the close relationship Bell Hook and Cornel West have. When watching the video, I could see that Hook and West have a very close relationship. They respect each others opinions, and truly care about what the other is saying. Even if they disagree with what the other person is saying, the respect each other to allow the other person to defend themselves. Because of the relationship they have developed over the years, it seems like it is a lot easier for them to talk about certain things. Hook and West are able to work off each other, and take over where another ones. They include some personal experiences, which makes it easier for me to understand the information they are talking about.

    Boo Radley Book Report

    In this story, I wonder if the kids will meet Boo Radley. I predict that the children will not meet Boo because they are frightened of him. First, I predict he will not meet the kids because he was in a gang. The gang got him thrown in jail. The court released him to his dad. His dad locked him up longer. Secondly, Boo stabbed his family member in the leg. The town wanted him in an asylum and a mental hospital. The public considers him intellectually afflicted. Finally, I expect the children of the town to not meet Boo Radley because his family is genuinely antisocial and inactive. The Radley family goes outside only at dusk to get groceries and things for their family.…

    Barbara Byrd-Bennett's Great Expectations

    I enjoyed reading your post. Another classmate chose this story as well. I had not heard of it before I read her post. You had mentioned that these types of crimes “rarely only hurt one person, but that multiple people get caught in this web”, this organizational deviance/crime also hurt numerous students and teachers. Barbara Byrd-Bennett accepted money in exchange for contracts. These contracts could have been done for less money leaving the excess money to be used for things that would benefit the students as well as help teachers. One teacher commented that according to Abc7chicago.com (2015), “I’m outraged and appalled by the fact that I spent several years trying to get text books and resources for my 12th grade students to get…

    Atticus Finch Research Paper

    Being a parent involves lots of responsibility. Managing a job, a house, and two kids all without a mother seems quite a difficult job. Well, Atticus Finch, in Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird, sets an inordinate example of a wonderful father. Atticus went to law school to become a lawyer. He settled in Maycomb County with his two children, Jem and Scout. His wife had died previously, so the responsibility of total provision fell on his shoulders and their servant, Calpurnia. Atticus was a very patient, protective, and passionate father.…

    Summer Reading Assignment: to Kill a Mocking Bird

    "Maycomb was an old town, but it was a tired old town when I first knew it. In rainy weather the streets turned to red slop; grass grew on the sidewalks, the courthouse sagged in the square. Somehow it was hotter then: a black dog suffered on a summers day; bony mules hitched to Hoover carts flicked flies in the sweltering shade of the live oaks on the square. Men's stiff collars wilted by nine in the morning. Ladies bathed before noon, after their three-o'clock naps, and by nightfall were like soft teacakes with frostings of sweat and sweet talcum."

    Hunger Games Summer Reading Essay

    Now days, everything is about freedom and equality in The United States. The American government is trying to spread these ideals to countries across the world. In The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins argues the point that all people are equal by using the Capitol as an example. In the book, the leaders of Panem host the Hunger Games, a competition requiring two young citizens from each district to fight to death, annually. The tributes chosen to compete in the games are chosen at random from a drawing filled with each of the names of young adults in the different districts. Children ages twelve to eighteen are enlisted into the drawing. The entries are cumulative though, so when the tribute is twelve their name is entered once, thirteen twice, and so on until they are eighteen it will be entered seven times. Also, the tributes can choose to add their name to the drawing more times in exchange for tessera, which is a small portion of rice and oil. This makes the underprivileged members of each district more likely to be sent to the Capitol to compete in the games. The rules of the games are completely unfair and prejudice toward poor people, much like the world is today. Although we focus on and try to help the less fortunate, we are more interested in who has the most money and want to put those people up on a pedestal. The members of the Capitol and their families are refrained from being put in the drawing just because they are “important in the society.” It is not clearly stated in the book that these rules are unfair, but it is so hard not to think about how the districts just take unreasonable orders from the Capitol.…
