Buffalo Essay

Then for many months Blackie disappeared and no one knew wear to find him at so they had just waited, and after many seasons coming and going he had returned in early April and he looked like a long, straggly, flabby, and weak snake.

    How Cats And Mice Became Enemies

    One way that they are alike is that it tells how they became enemies, for example the Rat pushes the Cat selfishly into the river, and in the story he eats the boat and Cat thinks that Rat was trying to kill him and he tries to kill Rat. Another way they are alike is in both the legend and the story they are crossing a river, and in the story the Rat eats the boat that they were crossing the river in and in the legend the Rat pushes Cat off of the Ox while crossing the river.Lastly in both Cat gets mad at Rat and tries to hurt him, like when the Cat and Rat cross the river and Rat eats the boat and Cat gets mad and tries to kill him or when they are crossing the river and the Rat pushes him off Ox’s back and Cat gets mad and tries to kill him. These reasons are why I think that the two stories about Cat and Rat are more…

    Native American Mascots

    America loves appropriating African-American culture –even when black people don’t get that same love reciprocated. This appropriation is seen many times in pop culture, schools, and the media. In the passage, “Appropriating Native American Imagery Honors No One but the Prejudice” by Amy Stretton, she emphasizes that racial stereotyping and inaccurate racial portrayals do not honor a living breathing people. Similar to black culture, Native American culture is often appropriated through the use of mascots and offensive naming of sports teams. The following passage depicts the negative effects that stereotyping can have on a person’s identity.…

The final similarity between my grandmother and buck, although there is probably many more, is when the wolves on Charles’ and Mercedes’ team all died and when my grandmother was told that her nine year-old daughter only had six months to a year to live.…

    Native American Mascot Debate

    Title II and the Native American mascot debate is a long and arduous one. Title II of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 provides for the “full and equal enjoyment” of all places of public accommodation with regard to race, color, religion, or national origin (Harvard Review). Since schools and sports complexes are public accommodations, they fall under the area of protection of Title II. The purpose of Title II is to protect people from discrimination in a public venue. Many, therefore, believe Title II should be applied to sports teams and their stadiums. They argue that sport teams with Native American mascots discriminate against the indigenous community by not allowing them a venue of equal enjoyment as non-indigenous…
